Three selectable freefall warnings. Solo II does not provide separate canopy or climb-warning banks.
Know the warning profile before you choose
Canopy alarms: no dedicated bank
Solo II does not provide separate canopy-descent or landing-pattern warning sets. After deployment, the third alarm’s trigger speed changes to 35 m/s; this is not a configurable canopy-warning bank.
Climb alarms: no configurable bank
Solo II has no dedicated climb-to-altitude warning alarms. It gives a 1,000 ft calibration/ready sequence, and five short beeps at 1,000 ft indicate low battery.
Helmet-ready shape
The thin, ergonomic housing has built-in mounting holes for inside or outside placement in compatible headgear.

Before you jump
Set the warnings, then check the unit.
How many warnings can I set?
Solo II lets you choose one, two or three freefall warning altitudes. The selection interval is 500 ft. The factory presets are 4,500 ft, 3,000 ft and 1,500 ft.
What tones does Solo II use?
Does Solo II have canopy or landing-pattern alarms?
No. Solo II does not have a separate canopy-descent or low-speed warning bank. The official manual notes that the third alarm’s trigger speed changes to 35 m/s after deployment; that is not the same as configurable canopy approach warnings.
Does Solo II have climb-to-altitude alarms?
No configurable climb-warning bank is provided. During ascent, Solo II gives a 1,000 ft calibration/ready sequence; five short beeps at 1,000 ft indicate low battery.
Which batteries does it use?
Larsen & Brusgaard recommends two RENATA CR-2325, 3 Volt batteries. Check the official instructions for the replacement procedure.
How should I prepare Solo II before jumping?
Set and test the selected warnings before boarding, confirm the unit is mounted securely, and keep normal visual altitude awareness and equipment checks active.
