The Skytronic GFX Skydiving Computer is our most
advanced instruments to date. It is designed to more effectively
improve safety, to more easily keep track of skydiving activity,
and the GFX contains features that will satisfy the most demanding
technical skydiver. It offers new functions, but it has been designed
for ease of use, with its intuitive Graphic User Interface and the
unique Navigation Switch which operates very much like a familiar
joystick. A wide graphic display, combined with menu icons and
tooltips, allows to set up and use within a few minutes, even
without referencing the manual. We’re sure you will enjoy all
the features of the Skytronic GFX, and we invite you to read the
information contained in this manual, as well the on-line
information available on our website www.parasport.it

The Navigation Switch
The Navigation Switch controls
the Skytronic GFX functions. It
can be moved in 4 directions
(up, down, left, and right very
much like a familiar joystick) and
depressed like a normal
pushbutton (ENTER function). It
also has an auto-repeat
functionality, so you can held the switch in place to have the
last action repeated. Throughout the different function selections,
the depressing action confirms, the up and down movement
changes values, and the left and right movement browses the
main menu and changes, programs or resets functions. The
Navigation Switch is also used to wake the unit when the display
is turned off (standby mode).
Some icons may appear on the Skytronic GFX display to provide
extra information. These icons won't appear while in freefall to keep
the display clean for altitude display only.

The Main Menu
The main menu will be displayed by moving the Navigation
Switch in any of the five directions. A row of icons will show at
the top of the screen, and you may browse them with the switch.
Select the desired function by depressing the Navigation Switch.

Installing the battery
The Skytronic GFX is never turned off, so it is shipped with the
single CR2450 3V Lithium battery not installed. Expected battery
life is about 18 months, but it really depends on the number of
jumps, time connected to a computer, and time spent not in
stand-by mode. If you’re planning not to use the unit for some
time (like during Wintertime, for example) we suggest to remove
the battery to save battery life. Replace the battery when the
low-battery indicator turns on (please note that extreme cold
weather may falsely activate this indicator!). If the low-battery
signal turns on at temperatures above 50°F (10°C) the battery
needs immediate replacement. To install or replace the battery
follow these steps:
1. Remove the battery compartment cover by rotating it counter-
clockwise with a coin. Be careful not to lose the rubber ring at
the top of the battery compartment -- it must be installed for all
jumps!

2. Discard the old battery, if present, and install the new battery
with the + sign on top.
3. Close the battery compartment cover with the help of a coin,
rotating it clockwise until it stops, making sure that the rubber
ring is in place.
Note: battery installation should be made with extra care. The
rubber ring is critical for proper performance. The operator is
responsible for installing the battery and rubber ring properly
behind the battery compartment cover.
All of the information stored in the GFX is kept when replacing
the battery.

1. Set date and time
Date set
The unit immediately goes to this function when you install the
battery. Time and date can also be set going to menu
UTILS/CONFIG/ DATE. Simply move the switch up and down to
set the values,
confirming each of
them with ENTER.
When you’re done,
move the switch right
to confirm the settings.
Configuring the Skytronic GFX
The Skytronic GFX is highly adaptable to your own personal
habits. Your settings will be stored and recalled also when your
replace the battery. When you first get the unit and install the
battery, we recommend to go through the following steps.
18
5. Set your number of jumps
Your Skytronic GFX logs your jumps, and numbers them starting
from the number you will set. Go to LOGBOOK, and move the
switch left to reset the logbook. Once you have set your number
of jumps you can confirm the action selecting YES using the
Navigation Switch.
21
different altitude settings for different type of jumps can be
recalled easily. Profiles can be associated with a name of jump,
and this name is stored together with the jump in your logbook.
If the warning altitudes haven’t been recalled from a profile, the
type of the jump won’t be stored in the logbook entry.
To configure a profile go to PROFILES, scroll to the desired
number moving the switch up or down (1 to 9 are available)
and then move the switch left to program it. Each profile can be
associated with a jump name (names are preset and can’t be
changed). Once you’re
done programming the
profile, move the switch
right to confirm the
settings.
