Time and Date 
Setting the time and date is typical of many Neptune setup menus. This 
adjustment is explained in detail to familiarize you with the menu system.  

 

The system starts up in the ground screen. It 
displays time, date and temperature. 
 
Icons indicate: 

•

 

the battery state 

•

 

alarms enabled or disabled 

•

 

logbook enabled or disabled 

•

 

backlight enabled (no icon for disabled) 

 

Start by pushing the center “Menu” button on 
the ground screen. The Main Menu will be 
displayed. 
 
Move the cursor (top or bottom button) to 
“System” and press “Select” (center button). 

 

 
In the “System” menu, most of the basic 
setup options are under “Options 1” or 
“Options 2”. 
 
Move the cursor (top or bottom button to 
“Options 2” and press “Select” (center 
button) 

 

 
You will now see the “Time/Date” setting 
option, as well as many others.

WARNING 

 

PARACHUTING IS A HAZARDOUS ACTIVITY THAT CAN RESULT IN INJURY OR DEATH.  

 

An altimeter is a device subject to malfunction, even when properly designed, built, assembled, maintained and used. Do not 

rely upon an altimeter for your safety. Your altimeter must only be considered as an aid when checking your altitude. 

 

A visual cross reference with the ground should be used in combination with any altimeter.
