Timekeeping

You can adjust the Home Time city date and time in the Timekeeping Mode.

• The analog time of this watch is synchronized with the digital time. The analog time

setting is adjusted automatically whenever you change the digital time.

• If the analog time does not match the digital time for any reason, use the procedure

described under “To adjust home positions” (page E-44) to match the analog setting to the digital setting.

• Pressing D in the Timekeeping Mode toggles digital display between the Home

City Date and Home City Time.

Stopwatch

You can use the stopwatch to measure elapsed time, lap times and split times. If you specify a distance value, the stopwatch also will calculate and display speeds.

• The digital display range of the stopwatch is 99 hours,

59 minutes, 59.999 seconds. The stopwatch continues to run until you stop it. If it reaches the above limit, it will restart the time measurement from zero.

If you exit the Stopwatch Mode while a stopwatch operation is in progress, the segments along the top of the right digital dial (right dial display segments) will indicate the seconds of the current time. Each segment represents one second. This is to let you know that a stopwatch operation is in progress.

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

Important!

• Check to make sure that the speed hand is not moving before you perform any

Stopwatch Mode button operation.

Specifying a Distance Value

You can use the procedure below to specify a distance value, if you want. If you specify a distance value, the watch will calculate and indicate speed for certain stopwatch operations.

• The distance value represents kilometers, miles, or any other distance unit you

want. Specifying a distance value of 10.0, for example, can mean 10.0 kilometers or

10.0 miles.

• No speed calculation is performed when 0.0 is specified as the current distance

value.

• For lap time readings, you can specify either the lap distance (when all the laps are

the same distance) or the total race distance.

• For split time readings, you can specify the total race distance only. Though the

watch will indicate a speed each time you take a split reading, they will be based on the total race distance, and so they will not indicate actual intermediate split speeds.

Time Measurement

You need to specify either lap time (page E-21) or split time (page E-23) measurement before you start a stopwatch operation.

• If you want to measure total elapsed time, select split time measurement.

1. In the Stopwatch Mode, make sure the stopwatch is stopped and reset to all zeros.

• If you need to reset the stopwatch to all zeros, press

2. Hold down A for about three seconds until the current distance value setting flashes in the left digital dial.

• This is the distance value setting mode.

3. Press C to move the flashing between the values on the left side and right side of the distance value decimal point.

4. While a distance value is flashing, use D (+) and B (–) to change it.

• You can specify a distance value in the range of 0.1

to 99.9.

5. After specifying the distance value you want, press A to exit the setting mode.

• If you need to reset the stopwatch to all zeros, press A.

2. You can toggle between LAP (lap times) and SPL (split times) by pressing A.

• While an elapsed time measurement operation is being
