GENERIC TIMER
Figure 2-30 Timer/References Window
The PFD generic timer can be set to count up or down from a specified time (HH:MM:SS). When the
countdown on the timer reaches zero, the digits begin to count up from zero. If the timer is reset before
reaching zero on a countdown, the digits are reset to the initial value. If the timer is counting up when reset,
the digits are zeroed.

TMR/REF
Softkey.
2) Turn the large FMS Knob to select the time field (hh/mm/ss).
