Stopwatch

Remaining free records

Hours 1/100 second

Minutes Seconds

The stopwatch lets you measure elapsed time, lap times, split times, and two finishes. Lap times and split times can be stored in memory.

• The display range of the stopwatch is 99 hours,

59 minutes, 59 seconds.

• All of the operations in this section are performed in the

Stopwatch Mode, which you enter by pressing C.

Note

• “Lap time” is the time spent to cover a specific segment of a race, such as one lap around a track. “Split time” is the time spent from the beginning of a race up to a certain point.

Operation Guide 4380 4396 5048

• The stopwatch continues to run, restarting from zero after it reaches its limit, until you stop it.

• The stopwatch measurement operation continues even if you exit the Stopwatch

Mode.

• For information about how stopwatch times are stored in memory, see “Memory

Management”.

Viewing the Stopwatch Digital Displays

The information that appears in the watch’s upper and lower digital displays depends on whether you are measuring lap times or split times.

Lap Time Measurement

Upper Display: Lap time

Lower Display: Elapsed time

Split Time Measurement

Upper Display: Lap time

Lower Display: Elapsed time (Split time appears here for eight seconds as it is stored in memory.)

• See “To measure elapsed time with lap times” and “To measure elapsed time with split times” for more information about each type of measurement.

• You can perform elapsed time measurement starting from either the lap time screen or the split time screen. Whenever you enter the Stopwatch Mode, the screen (lap time or split time) that was displayed when you last exited the mode will appear first.

• During a stopwatch elapsed time operation, the upper display initially shows minutes, seconds, and a 1/100-second value. This changes to hours, minutes, and seconds when the time in the upper display exceeds 60 minutes.

• The lower display initially shows hours, minutes, seconds, and a 1/100-second value. This changes to hours, minutes, and seconds when the time in the lower display exceeds 10 hours.

• After eight seconds, the ongoing elapsed time measurement re-appears in the lower digital display.

4. Repeat step 3 to record more lap times.

5. Press D to stop the stopwatch.

6. Press A to clear the stopwatch to all zeros.

• Lap numbers are incremented automatically starting from 1 whenever you press A in step 3 of the above procedure. The maximum lap number is 99. Recording a lap after that causes the lap number count to restart from 00.

6. Press A to clear the stopwatch to all zeros.

• Split numbers are incremented automatically starting from 1 whenever you press A in step 3 of the above procedure. The maximum split number is 99. Recording a split time after that causes the split number count to restart from 00.

To time first and second place finishes

1. When the stopwatch display shows all zeros, press A to display the split time screen (indicated by /SPL).

2. Press D to start a time measurement.

3. Press A when the first finisher crosses the finish line.

• This freezes the time of the first finisher in the lower part of the digital display for about eight seconds. After that, the display returns to elapsed time measurement.

4. Press D when the second finisher crosses the finish line.

• The second finisher’s time will appear in the lower display.

• The difference between the first finisher’s and the second finisher’s time will appear in the upper display.

5. Press A to clear the stopwatch to all zeros.

Memory Management

A new log is created each time you press D in the Stopwatch Mode to start a new elapsed time measurement operation. A log contains a log title screen, and records of all the lap or split times you record during the current elapsed time measurement operation.

• The capacity of the watch’s memory is 60 records.

• If you are adding records to the only log in memory and watch memory becomes full, adding another record causes the oldest record in the log to be deleted automatically to make room for the new record.

• If you are adding records to a log when there are multiple logs in memory and watch memory becomes full, adding another record causes the oldest log in memory and all of its records to be deleted automatically to make room for new records.

How stopwatch data is stored

The following table shows how stopwatch data is stored when you perform stopwatch button operations.

• You can use the Recall Mode to check memory data even while a stopwatch elapsed time measurement operation is in progress. However, the time data that is currently being measured will not appear in the Recall

Mode.

• You can convert a lap time saved in the Stopwatch

Mode to a split time.

Log Title Screen

To recall stopwatch time records

1. In the Stopwatch Mode, check to make sure that the displays reset to all zeros.

• If all zeros are not displayed, reset the stopwatch.

2. Use the A button to select either the lap time screen (to view lap time records) or the split time screen (to view split time records).

• To convert a lap time saved in the Stopwatch Mode to a split time, select the split time screen.

3. Press the C button to enter the Recall Mode.

4. Use the A button to scroll through the log title screens from the newest to the oldest until the title screen of the log whose records you want to view is displayed.

Illumination

This watch has an EL (electro-luminescent) panel that cause the face of watch to glow for easy reading in the dark.

• See “Illumination Precautions” for other important information about using illumination.

To illuminate the face of the watch

In any mode (except when a setting screen is on the display), press B to illuminate the face of the watch.

• You can use the procedure below to select either

1.5 seconds or 3 seconds as the illumination duration.

When you press B, the illumination will remain on for about 1.5 seconds or 3 seconds, depending on the current illumination duration setting.

To specify the illumination duration

1. In the Timekeeping Mode, hold down A until the seconds start to flash, which indicates the setting screen.

2. While the seconds are flashing, press B to toggle the illumination duration between 1.5 seconds ( ) and 3 seconds ( ).

3. Press A to exit the setting screen.

Reference

This section contains more detailed and technical information about watch operation.

It also contains important precautions and notes about the various features and functions of this watch.

Auto Return Feature

• If you leave a screen with flashing digits on the display for two or three minutes without performing any operation, the watch saves any settings you have made up to that point and exits the setting screen automatically.

• The watch will change to the Timekeeping Mode automatically if you do not perform any operation in the Recall Mode, Alarm Mode, or Hand Setting Mode for two or three minutes.

Button Operation Tone

Module 4380 Module 4396 Module 5048

The button operation tone sounds any time you press one of the watch’s buttons. You can turn the button operation tone on or off as desired.

• The multi-function alarms and Countdown Timer Mode alarm will sound even if the button operation tone is turned off.

To turn the button operation tone on and off

In any mode (except when a setting screen is on the display), hold down C to toggle the button operation tone on (mute indicator not displayed) and off (mute indicator displayed).

• Holding down C to turn the button operation tone on or off also causes the watch’s current mode to change.

• The mute indicator is displayed in all modes when the button operation tone is turned off.

Scrolling

The B and D buttons are used in various modes and setting screens to scroll through data on the display. In most cases, holding down these buttons during a scroll operation scrolls through the data at high speed.

Timekeeping

• Resetting the seconds to 00 while the current count is in the range of 30 to 59 causes the minutes to be increased by 1. In the range of 00 to 29, the seconds are reset to 00 without changing the minutes.

• The year can be set in the range of 2000 to 2099.

• The watch’s built-in full automatic calendar makes allowances for different month lengths and leap years. Once you set the date, there should be no reason to change it except after you have the watch’s batteries replaced.

Illumination Precautions

• The electro-luminescent panel that provides illumination loses power after very long use.

• Illumination may be hard to see when viewed under direct sunlight.

• The watch may emit an audible sound whenever the display is illuminated. This is due to vibration of the EL panel used for illumination, and does not indicate malfunction.

• Illumination turns off automatically whenever an alarm sounds.

• Frequent use of illumination runs down the batteries.
