WARNING
The ECHO, even when used as your primary means of maintaining altitude awareness, may fail. Always use your eyes to determine your approximate altitude. Altimeters may give erroneous readings if you are tumbling or the altimeter is in a burble (wake). Chest mount altimeters are more vulnerable to this problem compared to hand/wrist mounted altimeters. If you are in doubt about how this limitation affects your skydiving, consult a licensed instructor DO NOT use this equipment unless you are currently participating in, or have successfully passed, an approved parachuting or free fall course Please read ALL instructions carefully prior to use The ECHO must be switched ON prior to entering the airplane

Warning:

Do not perform night jumps, or jumps in sub-zero temperatures (Celsius) when the battery symbol shows low capacity

WARNINGS
The ECHO has 3 different types of audible warnings:

Climb to Altitude Warning:

While climbing in the aircraft, each preset warning will sound a series of beeps starting at the lowest preset altitude

Up to 4 different warnings can be preset (factory setting being 1 warning at 1000 ft. / 300 m);

1st warning: 2nd warning:
3rd warning:
4th warning:

One 0.2 second beep Two 0.2 second beeps One 1.3 second beep

The 1st warning will also:

–

Verify functionality of the ECHO

–

Indicate the altitude at which the highest preset High Speed warning sounds (one beep per 1000 ft., followed by a pause and another beep if preset an

additional 500 ft.)

ECHO – Rev. 1.10

Page 4 of 20

High Speed Warning:

During a vertical descent with speed over of 13 m/sec, each preset warning will sound a series of beeps as follows

Up to 4 different warnings can be preset;

1st warning: 2nd warning:
3rd warning:
4th warning:

One 1.5 second alarm. One 3 second alarm. One 4 second alarm. One continuous siren.

(Pulsating, low repetition) (Pulsating, low repetition) (Pulsating, high repetition) (High pitch siren, continuous while vertical speed is over 13 m/sec)

Note: After ECHO registers deployment, a vertical descent with speed over of 35 m/sec must be reached before High Speed Alarms activate.

Low Speed Warning:

During descent, each preset warning will sound a series of beeps starting at the highest set altitude

Up to 4 different warnings can be preset;

1st warning:
2nd warning: 3rd warning:
4th warning:

One 0.2 second beep One 0.2 second beep Two 0.2 second beeps One 1.3 second beep

Note: When selecting Guide ON, a series of 5 beeps will `count down’ from the 3rd to the 4th warning. The time between the beeps will shorten as the 4th warning is approached

Disable Warning(s): Less than 4 warnings can be selected for each type, by setting 2 or more alarms to the same altitude or zero —-:

Climb to Altitude Warning:
1 warning set to —-: 2 warnings set to —-: 3 warnings set to —-:

1st, 2nd, and 3rd warnings will be used 1st and 2nd warnings will be used 1st warning only will be used

2nd, 3rd, and 4th warnings will be used 3rd, and 4th warnings will be used 4th warning only will be used

Note: To re-enable any warning, select an altitude above zero

JUMP MODE and MEMORY BANK
ECHO has 3 color coded Jump Modes, each with a Memory Bank:
Yellow / Student Blue / Tandem Red / Expert
The Memory Bank contains 4 Climb to Altitude warnings, 4 High Speed warnings, and 4 Low Speed warnings. All Memory Banks are stored on ECHO while switching Jump Mode.

FUNCTIONALITY

Automatic Calibration / Flight Mode
After the ECHO is turned ON, it will continue to automatically calibrate itself to the field elevation where it is currently located. This will continue after each jump / landing, to ensure the unit is always zeroed before jumps are made and will take into account weather related pressure changes.
After take-off, the ECHO will enter Flight Mode.

Altitute Offset
When performing Altitude Offset, the ECHO enters Flight Mode and will retain any offset for 14 hours if no jump is made. After 14 hours the unit calibrates itself to the field elevation where it is located.
To exit Flight Mode, turn the unit OFF, then ON.

Manual Zeroing If the unit does not display the correct altitude when arriving at the drop zone, it must be manually zeroed Turning the unit OFF, then ON, will clear any Altitude Offset and re-enter automatic calibration

Automatic OFF
The ECHO automatically switches OFF if no jump has been made within 14 hours, no button has been pressed within 14 hours, or the unit has not been in Flight Mode within 14 hours

MAINTENANCE
Reset ECHO A reset may be necessary for troubleshooting and firmware verification

Locate the small hole on the side of the battery cover Insert a paper clip or similar into hole, press and release
Battery system calibrates

The firmware version will be displayed after reset

Battery Change

Only use Renata CR-2325 batteries (2 ea.)

Battery cover screw specs:

M3/T6 head (4.5mm length)

Remove the screws and battery cover Remove both batteries and note the polarity
Install 2 new batteries Install battery cover, and ensure rubber seal is in correct placement Place and tighten screws, using a torque screwdriver set at 0.4 Nm

Reset ECHO after battery replacement

All settings and logbook is kept in a non-volatile memory and will not be lost, however time may need to be set again after battery change WARNING: The battery cover and seal must be installed correctly, using correct screws and torque, before any water jumps are made
Air Filter Change The ECHO is waterproof to a depth of 5 feet, for 24 hours If the ECHO is submerged into water, allow the unit and air filter to dry in a warm place for 48 hours The air filter must be replaced if jumping is to be resumed immediately, or if the air filter is suspected to be contaminated
Remove the screws and battery cover Install new battery cover and ensure rubber seal is in correct placement
Place and tighten screws using a torque screwdriver set at 0.4 Nm

Reset ECHO after battery cover replacement
Air filter, and filter removal tool, are accessories that can be purchased separately
Trouble Shooting If the ECHO detects an issue, an error symbol is shown (ERR) with a number at the top of the screen Error codes: 1: Transducer defective 2: Transducer out of range 3: Transducer Time Out too long 4: Crystal defective 5: Communications error to flash 100: Flash defective
Always restart ECHO to attempt to remedy a single ERR code
If the ERR code persists, then also perform battery change
After unsuccessful restart of the ECHO, a Factory Reset is necessary:
Press and hold during reset, to perform Factory Reset
WARNING: All logbook data will be lost with Factory Reset If the ECHO is still faulty after Factory Reset, it must be serviced by an LB Altimeters Service Center

ECHO – Rev. 1.10

Page 15 of 20

Calibration and Maintenance Requirements

Calibration and maintenance by LB Altimeters Service Center is optional every 4, 8, and 12 years, following the ECHO original date of manufacture
If the ECHO exceeds mbar tolerances listed in the Specifications section, and absolute air pressure is required for DZ elevation or offset, calibration can be performed by LB Altimeters Service Center

NOTE:

When turned ON the ECHO unit runs a self-test and calibrates to the current ground level, and the ECHO will use measured air pressure for altitude calculations The ECHO can continue to be used until calibration is possible
When setting/changing the altitude using the mbar setting via Altitude Offset, the ECHO will use absolute air pressure for altitude calculations It is highly recommended the ECHO is calibrated by LB Altimeters Service Center before continued use
