You can assign a physical switch or a control switch to
these two timers in the “Timers” line …

… using the switch symbol on the right-hand side. The
assigned switch starts both timers, and also halts the
stopwatch.
The method of assigning a physical switch or a control
switch is described on page 33.
The fl ight timer always starts simultaneously with the
stopwatch, but continues to run even when the stop-
watch is halted (switched off). It can only be stopped by
pressing
ESC with the stopwatch halted.
Once stopped, pressing CLEAR resets both timers to
the initial value.
Switching between “count-up” and “count-down”
Count-up timer (stopwatch function)
If you assign a switch and start the stopwatch with the
initial value of “0:00”, the timer runs up until the maxi-
mum of 999 minutes and 59 seconds, then re-starts at
0:00.
Count-down timer (alarm timer function)
You can use the left-hand SEL fi eld to select a start-
ing time within the range 0 to 180 minutes; using the
right-hand
SEL fi eld the range is 0 to 59 seconds. Any
combination of times can also be selected.
(
CLEAR = “0” or “00”.)

When you operate the assigned switch, the stopwatch
starts from the set initial value, counting down (“Timer
function”). When the set time has elapsed, the timer
does not stop, but continues to run so that you can read
off the time elapsed after reaching zero. To make this
clear, the over-run time is shown highlighted (inverse
video).
