This allows you to end the flight sequence in case you have an issue, i.e. you burn an igniter and
the rocket doesn't launch. In that case, you'd perform a disarm prior to approaching the rocket
to insert a new igniter, then re-arm it afterwards. Note that refreshing this page will halt the
flight sequence for about 5 seconds while it performs processing and updates the statuses, which
is why you should close the browser on your handheld after arming. Closing the browser
window after arming helps to prevent potential interruptions to the flight sequence. Note that if
you refresh the Disarm page without entering a validation code it will force a deployment status
and battery check; this is OK if you intentionally want to do this, but remember that it also halts
the flight sequence for about 5 seconds, so don't do it right before launching, and remember to
close the browser when you're done.
See the section titled "Flying With Your Proton" for a further discussion of flight events.
