Garmin etrex vista cx Manuale Utente

The Constant Setup Page allows 

you to fine-tune certain aspects 

of the planned jump.
All jump types also can use a 

“Percent Max” to increase or 

decrease the range or their jump. 

Entries less than 100% decrease 

drift distance to the DIP while 

those greater than 100% increase drift distance. More 

experienced jumpmasters may choose to use smaller 

numbers while those less experienced may use larger 

numbers.
Safety Factor is used in HAHO jump types to allow 

a margin or error for a jump. Safety factors are 

usually integer values, no smaller than two, and are 

determined by the jumpmaster based on specifications 

for the jump.
A number of K values can be specified for different 

jumps. HAHO jumps use K-open while HALO jumps 

use K-open and K-freefall. Static jumps use K-static. 

K-values are based on the parachute canopy rating. 

Each parachute should be labeled with a K value. 

Common values may range from 3.0 for K-freefall to 

48.0+ for HAHO K-open.

1.  Highlight each field, in order, and press 

Enter 

to open the numerical keypad.

2.  Enter the appropriate value in each field, select 

OK, and then press the Quit key to return to 

the Jumpmaster Setup Page.

Clicking the Goto HARP button begins the 

navigation process and will take you to the Wind 

Setup page if that information is missing or 

automatically setting up the route with the calculated 

HARP and then the selected DIP before taking you to 

the Navigation page.
A check box at the bottom allows for auto-navigation 

to the DIP. If you want your unit to determine when 

you have jumped, this box should be checked. A 

message appears describing how to manually navigate 

the route.
Select Restore Defaults from the Option Menu of this 

page to reset the values.
