have jumped to begin navigating toward the desired
impact point (DIP) using the barometer and electronic
compass.
You can set the Jumpmaster to one of three types of
jumps: HAHO, HALO, or Static. The jump type
selected determines what additional setup information is
required. For all jump types, altitudes (drop or opening)
are measured in feet above ground level (AGL).

Enter to view the list of jump options.
