Countdown Timer
The countdown timer can be set within a range of
one minute to 60 minutes. An alarm sounds when
the timer reaches zero. The press of a button will
start the countdown timer from the currently set
start time, and a progress beeper sounds to keep
you informed of the current status of the
countdown. These features make it possible to
use the watch for yacht racing.
•
All of the operations in this section are
performed in the Countdown Timer Mode,
which you enter by pressing

For details about the progress beeper, see “Progress Beeper”.
Reset Time
You can set a “reset time”, which is a kind of alternate countdown start time
you can recall with the press of a button any time a countdown operation is in
progress.
Countdown End Beeper
The watch beeps each second of the final 10 seconds before a countdown
reaches zero, and at zero. The first five beeps (seconds 10 through 6) are
higher pitched than the final five beeps (seconds 5 through 1). The watch
emits a longer beep to signal when the countdown reaches zero.
Progress Beeper
The progress beeper actually includes two beepers: a reset time beeper and
a reset period beeper.
•
Note that the reset time beeper and reset period beeper operate only while
the progress beeper is turned on. For more information, see “To turn the
progress beeper on and off”.
Reset Time Beeper
The reset time beeper is similar to the countdown end beeper. The watch
beeps each second of the final 10 seconds before the countdown reaches the
reset time.
Reset Period Beeper
The reset period is in the portion of the countdown between the reset time
and zero. While timing is the reset period, the watch will beep four times at the
top of each minute and 10 seconds before the end of the countdown.
