3.1 Segment Timer Overview
The segment timer is a multi-function timing system and has multiple purposes. The
operation of the segment timer is determined by ninety-nine segments of pre-programmed
length. The segment timer will count down starting at the segment number that is set as
First
Segment . When the first segment is completed, the Segment Timer will count the preset
Interval Time and proceed with the next segment. The timer will continue counting segments
until the segment number that is set as Last Segment is complete. It then will reset to the
segment saved as the First Segment and will either begin counting down or wait for the
<
START
> key to be pressed depending on the < AUTO STOP> setting. Refer to Subsection
Auto Stop in this section to set the segment-stopping feature.
The first and last segment values can be used to set up specific practice sessions. For example,
the practice session for one sport could be programmed for five minute segments on segments
1-10 while another might use 10 minute segments on 11-20. Set the first segment and last
segment values to the desired segment numbers for the session and the console will count
down each of the segments in order. It may also be set to either stop on the last segment or
loop back to the first segment segments again based on the <
AUTO STOP> setting.
The segments values will be saved when the console is turned off and will be the same values
regardless of the sport that was used to access the segment timer.
