Alarm Version FDT003 / BD3000
OVERVIEW
This instruction book is set-up to mirror the logic of the digital module. The features DUAL
TIME, ALARM, CHRONOGRAPH and TIMER are described in the order they appear as in the
module. Therefore almost all setting instructions fall under the OPTIONS section. Each mode
of operation is covered in detail below; however, there are a number of unique innovations
that need to be explained first.
LIGHT-UP EL
The EL (light-up) button is (C). Pressing it once will activate the light-up function of the
display making the display face visible in low-light situations for 3 seconds. Press and hold the EL button for 2 seconds and the AUTO EL function
is turned on, marked by the Auto EL icon. This function enables the EL to be activated with the pressing of any function buttons. To turn this
function off, press and hold the EL button again for 2 seconds.
DUAL TIME
Set two different time zones and move easily between the two by pressing button (A) while in Time mode, alarms switch over accordingly. Under
T2 setting, no 12/24 hour mode adjustment.
