7.5.2 Countdown
Several countdowns can be entered and started independently of one
another. Unlike the timer function, the countdown cannot trigger an action.
Instead, you can use the countdown as a reminder if, for example, you only
wish to maintain the temperature of a sample for a certain duration. This
reminder will be indicated acoustically and visually.
