GENERAL INFORMATION
The timing capacity is 100 hours to 1 second. The unit may be set to count
down and alarm, or count up and alarm. A “thru-zero” feature counts to the
programmed time, alarms, and counts up. A memory function recalls the last
programmed time. An audible alarm sounds for one minute when a
programmed time is reached. A visual alarm flashes constantly until
manually turned off. A timeout feature allows the timer to be stopped for “off”
periods and restarted. The clock mode displays time-of-day to the second,
has a time-of-day alarm, and sounds an hourly signal.
