Directional device (7)

I believe the answer is:

compass

(Other definitions for compass that I've seen before include "Range of pitch" , "Drawing instrument" , "Box the ---, change fully round" , "Range - direction finder" , "Device with magnetic needle for determining direction" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
