FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

3.2.7. “Timer/Clock” display. Timer and clock adjustment.

Through the “Timer/Clock“ function a timer or a clock can be setup in order to accomplish

different purposes.

The following screen is displayed when P1 button is pressed on the System Setup screen.

The following functions are available when P1 to P5 buttons are pressed:

1. Start/Stop: The “Clock” count is established by pressing the button below this label. It

serves the same function for the ”Timer” function.

2. Elapsed: It keeps fixed the value displayed on the screen at the moment to press the

“Elapsed” button, but the count clock continues in background (in both functions:

”Timer” and ”Clock”).

3. Reset: Set up the count to zero.

4. Timer/Clock:: It changes between ”Timer” and ”Clock” options. When access to this

screen the default option is ”Clock”.

5. Main Screen: Return to main screen.

In ”CLOCK” mode, it works as a

chronometer with hours, minutes and

seconds. Pressing ”START” (push-button

P1) the chronometer is initiated. If push-

button P1 (now “STOP”) is pressed again,

the count finishes. When pressing ”START”,

the ”ELAPSED” label appears on its right. If

push-button P2, below this label, is pressed,

the chronometer display is stopped but the

count continues. To begin the count again

and to set up the chronometer at zero, the

push-button P3 below the ”RESET” label

must be pressed. To change at ”TIMER”

function, the push-button P3, below the

”TIMER” label, must be pressed.

In ”TIMER” mode, it works as a countdown

timer. By default, the timer appears as a 1

minute countdown.

On this screen, the ”SET” option permits to

adjust the timer length. This is carried out

using the rotating encoders (21). The upper

E1 push-button adjusts hours, the

intermediate E2 adjusts minutes and the

lower E3 seconds. When selecting ”START”

the countdown begins. The other functions

are the same as described for ”CLOCK”

mode.

When user leaves to “MAIN SCREEN” it does not stop the CLOCK or the TIMER, in such a way

that the up or down count continues.
