Use OmniMount if the navX-sensor is not mounted horizontally

By default, a navX-sensor's motion processing requires the unit be mounted horizontally, parallel to the earth’s surface; the yaw (Z) axis should be perpendicular to the earths surface.

If your RoboRIO is mounted vertically, you will need to enable the “OmniMount” feature in order to get reliable, accurate yaw (Z) axis readings.
