cvfd1399 0 #3 December 6, 2004 I figured out the main points except what settings that need to be calibrated in the altimeter/barometer modes to use it on a jump. Also I need to find out if it needs to be in a altimeter sub mode or the main mode while jumping. Thanks hopefully he will see this and answer Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mattjw916 2 #4 December 6, 2004 altimeter sub mode... You can set the reference alti to "0" when you get to the DZ every morning by holding select and then lowering the altitude to 0. Just remember the ground gets "higher" as it gets hotter outside during the day. BTW, it won't work at very high MSL dropzones like Mile-Hi since you can't lower the reference altitude low enough... and I really don't want to be doing math in freefall. P.S. I still will switch to my "old fashioned" altimeter for most RW jumps since people like to grab the face and obscure the altitude readout! doh!NSCR-2376, SCR-15080 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
