VI. MODES AND GAME OPTIONS
The timer allows you to select 6 different game modes. Each mode includes a
number of pre-programmed and programmable options, which give a total of 30
game options.
6.1) Blitz
Option 01, displayed by default the first time the timer is used, shows each play-
er’s game time. The other blitz options offer each player a limited time to win the
game. The game time used by the player between each move is deducted from
the total time allowed for the game. 3 times are pre-programmed. Two others are
programmable.
Option 02: 5 minutes per game. Each player has 5 minutes for the whole of
the game.
Option 03: 15 minutes per game.
Option 04: 30 minutes per game.
Option U1: Programmable game time. To play a blitz to a different time limit
from Options 02, 03 or 04.
Option U2: Programmable game time, other than U1. The times programmed
in U1 and U2 are saved as long as the game is powered.
6.2) Mirror
When this mode is selected, your opponent’s thinking time increases the time you
are allowed for the game while decreasing his own time. Two options are pre-pro-
grammed; the player can program two others.
