3. To clear the displayed stopwatch times to all zeroes, stop elapsed time
measurement and then hold down

the display and the watch beeps.
Keep

Recording Lap and Split Times
“Lap time” is the time spent to cover a specific segment of a race, such as one lap
around a track.
“Split time” is the time spent from the beginning of a race up to a certain point.
The explanations in this section describe general lap and split time registration,
without using the target split feature for triathlon timing. They assume that all target
splits are turned off. See “Timing a Triathlon” for more information about target splits.
Lap/split times are stored in memory automatically whenever you perform a lap/split
time operation with the
C
button. See “Recall Mode” for more information.
To record lap/split times
1. In the Stopwatch Mode, press
to start an elapsed
time measurement.
2. Press
to freeze the current lap time in the center of
the display and the current split time in the lower
display. The lap and split times are automatically stored
in memory at this time.
Pressing
causes the watch to beep twice. The lap
time and split time will remain frozen on the display for
about eight seconds. After that, the display will
automatically change back to the elapsed time
display, which will show the time of the next lap in the
center and the total elapsed time (split time) at the
bottom.
Stopwatch timing continues internally while the lap/
split times are frozen on the display.
3. You can repeat step 2 as many times as you want.

4. To stop the elapsed time measurement, hold down
for about two seconds, until
the watch emits two short beeps, followed by one long beep.
After stopping elapsed time measurement, you can resume it by pressing
.
5. To clear the displayed stopwatch times to all zeroes, stop elapsed time
measurement and then hold down
for two seconds until
stops flashing on
the display and the watch beeps.
Keep
depressed until the watch beeps. If you release
after
starts to
flash but the watch does not beep yet, the Stopwatch Mode measured times will
reappear.
The lap/split number of the current lap/split flashes on the display while an elapsed
time measurement is in progress. Lap/split numbers are automatically incremented
starting from
01
whenever you press
in step 2 of the above procedure. The
maximum lap/split number is
99
. Recording a lap/split after that causes the lap/split
number count to restart from
00
.
Auto start time
Auto-start
Auto-start automatically starts a stopwatch elapsed time operation when a time set by
you is reached.
Auto-start is coordinated with the current Timekeeping Mode time. The stopwatch
elapsed time operation will start automatically when the auto-start time you specify
is reached in the Timekeeping Mode.
Note that you can configure an auto-start time or turn auto-start on or off only while
the Stopwatch Mode screen shows all zeroes.
To set the auto-start time
1. While the Stopwatch Mode screen shows all zeroes,
hold down
until the hour setting of the auto-start
time starts to flash, which indicates the setting screen.
2. Press
to move the flashing between the hour and
minute settings.
3. While a setting is flashing, use
(+) and
(–) to
change it.
4. Press
to exit the setting screen.
Timekeeping
Mode time
To turn auto-start on and off
While the Stopwatch Mode screen shows all zeroes, hold
down
for about one second to toggle auto-start on
(countdown displayed) and off (all zeroes displayed).
When auto-start is turned on, the Stopwatch Mode
screen counts down the time remaining until the auto-
start time is reached. When the countdown reaches
zero, the watch beeps three times and a stopwatch
elapsed time operation starts automatically, regardless
of the mode the watch is currently in.
The auto-start countdown continues, even if you exit the
Stopwatch Mode.
Note that a stopwatch elapsed time operation cannot be
started manually by pressing
while an auto-start
countdown is in progress. You need to turn off auto-start
before using the stopwatch.

Configuring the Watch for Triathlon Timing
You can use the Target Mode to configure the watch with target splits, and to display
leg indicators during timing of each leg.
Configuring the watch for timing a triathlon consists of the following three steps.
1
Setting target split times
2
Specifying leg indicators
3
Turning on the target splits you want to use
Target Splits and Leg Indicators
You can configure the watch up to five target lap/split times (
through
) and
specify leg indicators (Swim, Bike, Run) that appear on the display on the Stopwatch
Mode screen during timing of each leg.
The following shows examples of two possible configurations that you can use.
Example 1: Swim: 20 minutes; Bike: 3 hours; Run: 2 hours

To configure target split times
1. In the Target Mode, use
and
to scroll through the
target split screens (
through
) until the one
whose time you want to set is displayed.
Press .
Press .
2. After you select a target split, hold down
until the
hour setting of the target split time starts to flash. This is
the setting screen.
If the hour setting does not flash when you hold down
, it probably means that
a Stopwatch Mode elapsed time or auto-start countdown operation is being
performed. Go to the Stopwatch Mode and stop the operation.
3. Press
to move the flashing between the hour, minute, and seconds settings.
4. While a setting is flashing, use
(+) and
(–) to change it.
You can specify a target split time of up to 99 hours, 59 minutes 50 seconds in
10-second steps.
5. Press
to exit the setting screen.
To specify a leg indicator for a split
1. In the Target Mode, use
and
to scroll through the
target split screens (
through
) until the one
whose leg indicator you want to specify is displayed.
2. Press
to cycle through the leg indicator settings in
the sequence shown below to select the one you want.

To turn a target split on and off
1. In the Target Mode, use
and
to scroll through the target split screens (
through
) until the one you want to turn on or off is displayed.
2. Press
to toggle the currently displayed target split on (target split time displayed)
and off (

Timing During a Triathlon
Basically, timing a triathlon is the same as elapsed time measurement and lap/split
time recording in the Stopwatch Mode. The only difference is that you have the watch
configured with target splits and leg indicators before starting actual timing.
Timing a Triathlon
You can configure the watch with up to five target split
times and leg indicators. Then when you time the legs of a
triathlon, the watch will display the leg indicators during
each leg, and beep when a preset target split time is
reached. You can even display the difference between a
preset target split time and your actual split.
See “Stopwatch” for full details about using the
Stopwatch Mode and for more information about lap and
split time operations.

To time a triathlon
1. Use the procedure under “Configuring the Watch for
Triathlon Timing” to configure the watch for triathlon
timing.
2. Use
to enter the Stopwatch Mode.
3. When you start the first leg of a triathlon (usually the
swim leg), press
to start an elapsed time
measurement.
If you have the watch configured to display leg
indicators, the leg indicator will flash on the display.
The current lap/split number will also be displayed.
4. When you reach the end of the first leg, press
so the
watch beeps twice.
This will freeze the time of the first leg (lap/split
number
) in the center of the display and in the
lower display. The times will also be stored
automatically in memory.
