jump types, drop altitudes and opening altitudes are measured

in feet above ground level (AGL).

HAHO: High Altitude High Opening. The jumpmaster jumps from

a very high altitude and opens the parachute at a high

altitude. You must set a DIP and a drop altitude of at least

1,000 feet. The drop altitude is assumed to be the same as

the opening altitude. Common values for a drop altitude

range from 12,000 to 24,000 feet AGL.

HALO: High Altitude Low Opening. The jumpmaster jumps from

a very high altitude and opens the parachute at a low altitude.

The required information is the same as the HAHO jump

type, plus an opening altitude. The opening altitude must not

be greater than the drop altitude. Common values for an

opening altitude range from 2,000 to 6,000 feet AGL.

Static: The wind speed and direction are assumed to be

constant for the duration of the jump. The drop altitude must

be at least 1,000 feet.

Entering Jump Information

Select Jumpmaster.

Select a jump type (Jump Types, page 5).

• Select Drop Alt to set the drop altitude AGL (in feet) when

the jumpmaster exits the aircraft.

• Select Open Alt to set the open altitude AGL (in feet)

when the jumpmaster opens the parachute.

• Select Forward Throw to set the horizontal distance

traveled (in meters) due to aircraft speed.

• Select Crs. to HARP to set the direction traveled (in

degrees) due to aircraft speed.

• Select Wind to set the wind speed (in knots) and direction

(in degrees).

• Select Constant to fine-tune some information for the

planned jump. Depending on the jump type, you can

select Percent Max., Safety Factor, K-Open, K-Freefall,

or K-Static and enter additional information (Constant

Percent Max.: Sets the jump range for all jump types. A setting

less than 100% decreases the drift distance to the DIP, and a

setting greater than 100% increases the drift distance. More

experienced jumpmasters may want to use smaller numbers,

and less experienced skydivers may want to use larger

numbers.

Safety Factor: Sets the margin of error for a jump (HAHO only).

Safety factors are usually integer values of two or greater,

and are determined by the jumpmaster based on

specifications for the jump.

K-Freefall: Sets the wind drag value for a parachute during

freefall, based on the parachute canopy rating (HALO only).

Each parachute should be labeled with a K value.

K-Open: Sets the wind drag value for an open parachute, based

on the parachute canopy rating (HAHO and HALO). Each

parachute should be labeled with a K value.

K-Static: Sets the wind drag value for a parachute during a

static jump, based on the parachute canopy rating (Static

only). Each parachute should be labeled with a K value.

Fitness Goals

Knowing your heart rate zones can help you measure and

improve your fitness by understanding and applying these

principles.

• Your heart rate is a good measure of exercise intensity.

• Training in certain heart rate zones can help you improve

cardiovascular capacity and strength.

If you know your maximum heart rate, you can use the table

(Heart Rate Zone Calculations, page 7) to determine the best

heart rate zone for your fitness objectives.

If you do not know your maximum heart rate, use one of the

calculators available on the Internet. Some gyms and health

centers can provide a test that measures maximum heart rate.

The default maximum heart rate is 220 minus your age.

About Heart Rate Zones

Many athletes use heart rate zones to measure and increase

their cardiovascular strength and improve their level of fitness. A

heart rate zone is a set range of heartbeats per minute. The five

commonly accepted heart rate zones are numbered from 1 to 5

according to increasing intensity. Generally, heart rate zones are

calculated based on percentages of your maximum heart rate.

Setting Your Heart Rate Zones

The device uses your user profile information from the initial

setup to determine your default heart rate zones. You can set

separate heart rate zones for sport profiles, such as running,
