ELAPSED TIME
The ELAPSED
TIME function shows the time of flight, but it must be initiated by the user. The information of
the ELAPSED TIME appears in the lower display. When ELAPSED TIME is selected, the led ET together with
the mode of operation RUN or HLD which depend on the functionality for the clock will be switched on.
The hours and minutes are shown in the display but not for the seconds.
If the ET button is pressed again, the counter restarts and LED RUN switches on while HOLD switches off.
To initiate the ELAPSED TIME mode it is necessary to push the ET push-button once. After that, the time will
start to count and the LED RUN is switched on. If we push the ET push-button again, the ELAPSED TIME will
stop and the LED HOLD is switched on and LED RUN is switched off. If the ET push-button is again pushed, it
begins again to count returning the LED RUN to on and HOLD to off.
If we push the RESET push-button when the count is active (RUN to on), a reset of the counter will be done
returning all the digits to zero and initiating a new count.
Otherwise, if we push the RESET push-button when the ELAPSED TIME is with HOLD to on, this reset will
make a reset of the ELAPSED TIME showing all the digits to zero and switching off the lower display 5
seconds later. All the LEDs related to ELAPSED TIME will also be switched off.
The function ELAPSED TIME is secondary to the system, which is to say that if the ELAPSED TIME is selected
and we also push the CHR function (Chronometer), all the information of the ELAPSED TIME will disappear
from the lower display for showing the information of the chronometer. The ELAPSED TIME continues
working in the background and when the chronometer is removed, the ELAPSED TIME function returns to
show its information in the lower display.
