Well, Ancillary indication means a subordinate or "back" up indicator. So a Direction Ancillary Indication would mean a supported, subordinate "backup" indication of your direction.

If you mean Driection Ancillary Indicator: It is a simple tool, mainly used in the outdoors, that tells direction.

Many come on a multi-tool. It's a circular hole through in a flat piece of a hard material like steel, titanium, plastic..etc, with increments etched around it's edge.

1.You place this flat on a flat surface.

2. You drop a few drops of water in its center.

3. Magnetize a very light piece of metal.( So that it will float on the surface tension of the water. This can be done by a magnet, but I'vealso hear you can magnetize it by rubbing it on your hair. Odd, since I'd think you'd only produce static electricity, but eh,..I'll test that when I get an indicator.)

4. Lay shaving, pin..etc. on top of water.

5. Result should be the ends pointing toward magnetic north and south.

What is ancillary ligand?

An ancillary ligand is a ligand on a chemical complex that is not directly involved in the chemistry. Ancillary ligands are often there to help stabilize a complex or contribute steric or electronic effects. Thus, activity of a complex can be tuned by adjusting the ancillary ligands, even though they are not directly a part of the chemistry that is occurring. The ligands that are involved in the chemistry are called functional ligands.


What is ancillary bond?

An ancillary bond is a type of financial instrument that provides assurance or security for a specific obligation or transaction.

An indication that energy is given off in a chemical reaction is shown by an increase in temperature. This is because the released energy can manifest as heat, causing the surroundings to become warmer.
