These settings will allow you to record a detailed account of your jump. Be sure to clear the data log just
before jumping. As you descend toward the ground, you will be tracking the altitude every two seconds,
as well as the conditions at that altitude. The chart will clearly show the point at which the parachute
opens, as well as the point you get back on the ground.
