How the TARGET CHRONO works:
You may preset up to five (5) times into the
TARGET CHRONO. Each preset time must reflect the interval (or difference) of time
between the previous reading and your next goal. Using the 5K run example, let’s
assume your objective is to develop a “kick” which means your last kilometer time will
be shorter than the first four (4). To compensate, you will pace yourself in the beginning
of the race, so your targets are:
Target time #1:
START – 1K = 5:15.0
Target time #2:
1K – 2K = 5:05.0
Target time #3:
2K – 3K = 5:00.0
Target time #4:
3K – 4K = 4:55.0
Target time #5:
4K – FINISH = 4:45.0
Therefore, these are the times to be set into the TARGET CHRONO.
Note:
Do not set the accumulated time goals
, but rather the
interval
(or difference) time
between each reading.
Start the TARGET CHRONO at the beginning of the event. The upper row of the
display will act as a chronograph and begin accumulating time. The bottom row will
count down time from your first preset target.
As you take a time reading, i.e. completing the first kilometer, the display will show your
actual time in the top row and the difference between it and your target in the bottom
row. If your actual time has exceeded your target, a plus sign (+) will appear in the lower
row. As soon as a reading is taken, the next target will automatically begin counting
down.
As any time during your event, you may use the RECALL function to review the
previous readings.
Multiple versus Single Targets:
In the 5K example above, you may seek to run
consistent 5:00 kilometers. Therefore, you need only to enter 5:00 into the first (or any)
target time and turn the other four (4) times “OFF”. Your timepiece will now
automatically repeat the 5:00 target time sequence.
How to use and operate the TARGET CHRONO:
Setting TARGET TIMES:
The bar graph will indicate which target time is being set
and/or activated (1, 2, 3, 4 or 5). You may reset each time up to 16 hours, precise to 1/10
second.
With the upper row showing all zeros, select which target time(s) you wish to set by
pressing (A). Refer to the BAR GRAPH for target number (1-5).
