For Orienteering the clock can be configured to be a Start, Pre Start or Finish display.
- In Start mode the clock gives an audible countdown and start signal each minute.
- In Pre Start mode the time display is offset by the Pre Start interval and gives an audible signal each minute. i.e. at Start 12:00:00 the Pre Start can show 12:04:00
- In Finish mode the clock shows real time with no beeps.
For Running the clock can use Clock Time or be easily configured as a Stop Clock starting from 00:00:00. The clcok can be started , stopped and reset using the keypad.
The built in Highly Accurate Real Time Clock is set and synchronised using the configuration software via a USB connection cable. This battery backed clock maintains time when the clock display is turned off.
The clock display is powered by a 5v re-chargeable battery which gives 8+ hours of use and can then be re charged in a few hours.
The software interface communicates via the serial port and allows setting of:
- Time
- Sound On or Off
- Clock Type: Start Finish etc.
- Pre Start Offset in minutes
- Time zone
The clock is enclosed in a robust plastic case which is weather resistant but like most electronic systems is not immersion proof. The case is designed to easily fit on a loud speaker stand.
