  HOW TO SET YOUR GPS RECORDER


The Tracking Derby is compatible with GPS Files, with one position per second. GPS recorders with barometric capsule could cause weird vertical speed graphs ! We recommand to turn barometric capsule off.

  • Log your GPS to satellites before exit
  • Keep your GPS recorder orientated to satellites while flying.
  • Want to save memory? Put Recording On right before jumping.
  • Turn off your GPS after each landing, not before touching the ground !

Foretrex users :

Turn your GPS on
Step 1: Push four times on "PAGE" button
Step 2: Select "TRACKS"
Step 3: Select "SETUP TRACK"
Step 4: Put "RECORDING ON"
Step 4: Put "RECORD INTERVAL" to "TIME"
Step 6: Put "VALUE" to "00:01"

Beware !

Don't use the fonction "SAVE TRACK". Your Gps tracks are already stored in memory. This fonction will compress the Gps file. It won't be compatible with the Tracking Derby anymore.
