4. Starting
4.1. Introduction
The best way to learn to use Microgate’s REI2 stopwatch is to begin trying. Bear in mind that there
is no sequence of keys which can damage your stopwatch. However, make sure you read this
manual carefully before connecting any accessories.
This chapter will guide you step by step in the operations to be carried out when starting to use your
REI2.
4.2. First switching on
Start by connecting the mains power supply to the Supply connector, wait a few seconds and switch
on the device.
In the initial screen display the firmware release and language appear for a few seconds. In this case
you will see 1.07.9 followed by 0 or 1 indicating the battery type. 1 indicates longlife batteries
while 0 indicates standard duration.
Note:
The request for synchronization does not appear if the internal clock of your REI2 is still
synchronized; the data not valid message does not appear if REI2’s memory contains valid data.
