used simultaneously. To switch to the other mode, you
must first stop the chronograph and reset the counter
display to zero. However you can select and use the
other timepiece functions while the chronograph is
running.
Choosing a mode:
In
ADD
Mode, you can start and stop the counter to
measure the combined time of a series of shorter events,
for example the actual playing time of a football game,
where play is repeatedly interrupted. Each time you stop
the counter, the timing is halted: it does not continue to
track elapsed time.
In
SPLIT
Mode, you can take intermediate time readings
as a continuing event, a race for example, progresses.
The chronograph will continue to track the elapsed time
in the background while the intermediate time reading is
displayed. When the crown is pushed again, the counter
display will change to reflect the ongoing elapsed time.
Reading the display:
When the chronograph is running in either mode –
ADD
or
SPLIT
– the counter display will show the following
information:
Timed period < 1 minute:
SP
or
Ad
Mode – s hundredths.
(Ex: “
Ad 05 58
”)
Timed period > 1 minute and < 1 hour:
SP
or
Ad
Mode – Ad and m s
hundredths appear alternately.
(Ex: “
Ad
” and “
05 50 36
” alternate)
Timed period > 1 hour and < 48 hours:
SP
or
Ad
Mode – minutes – seconds – hundredths
appear alternately.
(Ex: “
01 35 28
” and “
Ad 55
” alternate)
