Countdown

Introduction:

Countdown is both a standard stopwatch timer and a countdown timer. Use Countdown for all of your timing needs. Countdown features both count up and countdown timers, 99 lap snapshots, custom alarm sound for the countdown timer, and the ability to keep the palm always on while the timer is running. The timers even keep correct time while the palm is turned off or you run a different application! Countdown is the easy to use timer program that will meet all of your timing needs. Supports both monochrome and color devices. Also completely supports Palm OS 5. This program includes free lifetime updates!

Directions:

Countdown features two modes of operation, stopwatch and countdown. To switch between the two modes, tap the "Mode" button while the timer is stopped. The current mode is displayed in the upper right side of the screen.

Stopwatch Mode:

Stopwatch mode functions like your standard stopwatch. Press the "Start" button to start the timer counting up. When the timer is running the "Start" button becomes the "Stop" button. Press the "Stop" button to stop the timer. Press the "Reset" button to reset the timer back to 00:00:00. By tapping the "Lap" button while the timer is running a lap snapshot will be added to the list directly below the timer. Up to 99 lap snapshots may be taken at any one time.

Countdown Mode:

Countdown mode functions as a timer that counts from an initial time down to zero. Once it hits zero the program sounds your alarm to notify you that the time is up. To set the initial time, simply tap on the digit of the counter to increase it by one. Press the "Start" button to start the timer counting down. When the timer is running the "Start" button becomes the "Stop" button. Press the "Stop" button to stop the timer. Press the "Reset" button once to reset the timer back to your initial setting and again to reset it back to 00:00:00. By tapping the "Lap" button while the timer is running a lap snapshot will be added to the list directly below the timer. Up to 99 lap snapshots may be taken at any one time.

Preferences:

The preferences settings is located under the "Options" menu. The "Alarm Sound" preference allows you to choose the alarm to play when a countdown timer finishes. The "Auto-off" setting allows you to turn off the palm's auto-off feature while the program is running. This way the palm will not turn itself off while you are timing something. Uncheck the box to turn off the auto-off.
