In short words:
· the activation handle has to be in its
original position when you enter the
plane
· on the jumprun, prior to exit, it has
to be pulled downwards some centi-
meters
· it has to be put back into its origi-
nal position after the jump, at least
prior to the next boarding.
At any time it is possible to put the unit manu-
ally back into ‘sleep mode’ by bringing back the
handle into its original position. The unit is now
in ‘sleep mode’, when the arming cable is gently
pushed into the Smoke Jumper CYPRES 2 and
physically stops. To achieve ‘sleep mode’ it is
mandatory to push the cable this far.
The unit will automatically go back into sleep
mode two hours after the active mode was initi-
ated or after a height loss of approx. 2.600 ft from
arming elevation, even without touching the han-
dle.
On packing your parachute after a training jump
or a mission, bring the handle back into its origi-
nal position. This is mandatory because only by
„pulling the activation handle some centimeters
downwards from its original position“ will allow
the Smoke Jumper CYPRES 2 to change between
‘sleep mode’ and active mode. This allows the
unit to monitor what is going on and being ready
to do its job.
