LogTrackII Operating manual Using the LogTrackII Data Analysis software, recorded data can be downloaded to a PC. All information logged by the unit can be displayed in a fast, clean and concise charting format and can be archived for later data research and comparison.
This way the users can familiarize themselves with the LogTrackII unit and the LogTrackII PC software before spending time and money on business specific tests. The LogTrackII may be put anywhere on the skydiver’s body. However, the closer the unit is placed to the torso the more accurate the g-force measurements will be.
