There is a new VIGIL manual at:
http://www.vigil.aero/pdf/VIGIL%20-%20User%20Manual%20v2.0.5.pdf
some chances are:
Version2.0.2:
It is Highly recommended to shut down the Vigil when the user decides to ride down with the aircraft
NEW :
Version2.0.5:
It is recommended to shut down the Vigil when the user decides to ride down with the
aircraft in lieu of jumping. (This is especially important for Vigils programmed in student mode).
Version2.0.2:
3.2 Installation
The Vigil is completely compatible with most sport rigs on the market today. It can be easily
installed in any harness/container system equipped with a place for an AAD.
All the loops currently available on the market (Spectra CSR style #9512-300, Spectra CSR
style #9512-725, Cypres™ Locking Spectra Cord) are usable.
Version2.0.5:
3.2 Installation
The Vigil is completely compatible with most sport rigs on the market today.
It can be easily sewn into any harness/container system designed for an electronic AAD.
If necessary, a Vigil pocket can be installed in your container by a rigger.
All reserve closing loops currently on the market that are similar to Spectra CSR style #9512-
300 or the Cypres™ Loop (Spectra Cord) are acceptable for use in the installation of the Vigil.
The Vigil’s cutter must be positioned as specified by the container manufacturer’s instructions.
Even when is not more highly recommended to shut down the Vigil when the user decides to ride down with the aircraft,
I think the Vigil must installed (sewn?) that way, that if the jumper wants, he can shut off it by himself.
(This is especially important for Vigils programmed in student mode)
The student mode is an advice to Birdman Jumpers.
It should be installed that way he can also see ,during aircraft ascent, the Vigil’s red LED will briefly flash three times when
it passes through its pre-set activation altitude. Some jumpers want to see that flash(they paid fore it)
If the Vigil is installed in a setup like most sport rigs on the market today ,
the jumper must ask the pilot to wait a few moments before he rides down with the aircraft
because he has to get out of his gear and shut his Vigil of.
Do not forget to inform the pilot about the new flight Restrictions.
There are a view more differences between the old and new in the manual.
See:
flight Restriction,
life span Battery,
great change in atmospheric pressure,
move in a vehicle,
ect.
Always check the Vigil homepage and contact the manufacturer before the next Jump.
