USING ATLAS AS A VISUAL ALTIMETER

HAND MOUNT - 1

If you wish to use Atlas as a visual altimeter, we suggest
you use the hand mount provided.
The strap goes between the back plate and plastic top of
the hard mount case. Tighten the screws using a cross-
pattern as you would lug nuts on a car wheel until snug,
taking care not to overtighten.
HAND MOUNT - 2
You can use Atlas on the right or left hand. To change the
orientation of the display, use the Flip function. Scroll to
and select Display Opt, then scroll to and select Flip
LCD.

WRIST MOUNT

Feed the wrist strap between the back plate and plastic
top of the hard mount case. Tighten the screws using a
cross-pattern as you would lug nuts on a car wheel until
snug, taking care not to overtighten.
Do not use the hand mount and wrist mount together.
Use one or the other.
To preserve battery charge when using Atlas exclusively as a visual altimeter, we
recommend disabling all alarms. To disable freefall alarms, scroll to and select
Alarms, then scroll to and select Disable FF Alrm.
To use Atlas on night jumps, turn on the Backlight. Scroll to and select Display Opt.
Select Backlight On/Off at the top of the screen. Disable alarms when the Backlight
is turned on – if both are on, the Backlight will go dark briefly while Free Fall and Canopy
alarms sound. This is required due to the heavy drain on battery life when alarms sound
with the Backlight illuminated.
Note: when turned on, the backlight will stay on for only three seconds while Atlas is on
the ground, to conserve battery life. The backlight will stay on in freefall and under
canopy. We recommend that you fully charge your Atlas before making a night jump.
Parachuting is a hazardous activity that can result in injury or death. An altimeter may malfunction, even when
properly designed, built, assembled, maintained and used. Do not rely upon an altimeter for your safety. Your
altimeter must only be considered as an aid when checking your altitude. The displayed altitude may not be
correct during both ascent and descent – a visual cross reference with the ground should be used in combination
with the altimeter.
