Distance Entered: 0.250 Mile (1/4 mile) Page x of y Rev 02 05/04/05 Memory Recall in ascending order “UP” Indicator STOP & SPEED Mode Indicators LAP Counter LAP TIME Chrono How to Determine and Enter the Distance The first step is to enter the distance correctly. The SPEED TIMER will not operate unless a distance is entered. Distance is entered as the decimal equivalent of a mile or kilometer from 000.001 to 999.999. For example, enter 2 ½ miles or kilometers as 002.500, 1/3 as 000.333, 1/8 as 000.125, etc. (To calculate the decimal equivalent of a fraction, simply divide the numerator by the denominator . . . for ¾, 3 divided by 4 is 000.750.) Some common distances in decimal form are: 1/10 = 0.100 3/8 = 0.375 1/8 = 0.125 1/2 = 0.500 1/6 = 0.167 5/8 = 0.625 1/4 = 0.250 2/3 = 0.667 1/3 = 0.333 3/4 = 0.750 You may convert feet to the decimal equivalent of a mile, i.e. 187 feet is entered as 000.035 (187 divided by 5280 feet (1 mile) = 0.035). Some commonly used distances reported by feet are: Water Ski Slalom Course: Pitcher’s Mound/Baseball: Pitcher’s Mound/Youth: Pitcher’s Mound/Softball: 850 feet = 0.161 mile 60.5 feet = 0.011 mile 47 feet = 0.009 mile 45/47 feet = -.009 mile Convert meters to kilometers by dividing by 1000. For example, 230 meters is entered as 0.230 km. (230 divided by 1000). Entering the Distance The SC-554 can accommodate distances between 000.001 and 999.999 mile/kilometer. After determining the distance, press and hold “F” for three (3) seconds, “SET” and “DIST” appear. The “MILE” or “KM” indicator will appear flashing. Press “C” to select between miles or kilometers. Then press “E”. The hundreds of miles digit appears flashing. Advance the hundreds of miles digit while flashing by pressing or holding “C”. Repeat pressing “F” to select and “C” to advance for tens, units, tenths, hundredths and thousandths. Exit the setting sequence at any time by pressing “E”. “SET” and “DIST” indicators disappear. Please note: (1) The SC-554 returns to the reset position if no pushbuttons are pressed within 15 seconds. (2) If hundreds and tens digits have no value entered, they will disappear after you have entered the distance. Page x of y Rev 02 05/04/05 Stroke Rate Calculation You may calculate stroke rate based on one, two or three stroke cycles. Since we are not interested in MPH/KPH, we will disregard those indicators. Following the instructions in the “Enter Distance” section, please enter the following values for their respective stroke cycles: One (1) stroke cycle . . . please enter 0.017 Two (2) stroke cycles . . . please enter 0.034 Three (3) stroke cycles . . . please enter 0.050 To measure stroke rate, simply START the timer by pressing “A” at the beginning of the cycle and STOP the timer by pressing “A” again at the completion of the cycle. The number displayed in the upper row of the display is the Stroke Cycle Rate per Minute. Take as many readings as necessary. The Average and Fastest rates can be displayed by pressing “F”. OPERATING THE SPEED TIMER MEMORY RECALL DIRECTION Select between ascending “UP” or descending “DN” memory recall direction by pressing “D” while the Speed Timer is in the reset position. The recall direction cannot be selected while the Speed Timer is running or not in the reset position. (1) For Single Lap Events: Press “A” to start. “RUN” indicator appears. Press “A” again to stop the timer. “STOP” indicator appears. The speed will appear in the right side of the upper row of the display and the time will appear in the lower row of the display. Press “B” to reset to all zeros. (2) For Multiple Lap Events: Press “A to start, “RUN” indicator appears. Press “B” to take Lap readings. Lap Time will appear in the lower row of the display, Lap Speed in the upper row and Lap Number in the Lap Counter. Continue to press “B” to take as many lap readings as necessary. The SC-554 will record up to 999 laps. Memory Recall in ascending order Lap Speed for lap 47 is 150.369 mph Lap Counter: Previous Lap is #47 Lap Time for lap 47 is 39.91 seconds Time is running The Lap Counter will increase by one (1), each time a Lap reading is taken. The previous Lap Time will remain frozen in the lower row for 15 seconds, at which time it will automatically release to the current running lap time. Or, you can manually release the time by pressing “C”. Page x of y Rev 02 05/04/05 After pressing “B”, should “ERROR” appear in the upper row, followed by five (5) beeps, you have exceeded the timer’s measuring capability of 1000 mph/kph. When this occurs, the Lap Time continues to run. To correct the error, simply press “C” to return to the previously recorded lap. Then press “B” to take the appropriate lap readings. Upon completion of the event, or to stop the Speed Timer at any time, press “A”. “STOP” indicator appears and one (1) is added to the Lap Counter. Then, press “B” once, to display the accumulated time and again to reset to all zeros. AVERAGE, MAXIMUM and MEMORY Functions The MAXIMUM SPEED/FASTEST LAP reading can be displayed at any time, by pressing “D”. The “MAX” indicator will appear, as will the lap number, speed and time of the fastest lap. To return to any previous function, press “C” or the SC-554 will automatically do so after 15 seconds. The AVERAGE SPEED and TIME of multiple laps, up to 999, can be computed and displayed at any time, by pressing “D”, again. “AVG” indicator appears and the average lap time will appear in the upper row of the display, along with the total number of laps completed. 30 MEMORY RECALL of lap speed, time and number can be displayed at any time, up through 999 laps, by pressing “F”. Recall “RCL” indicator appears. Holding “F” down, will cause the previous readings to be displayed at a rate of one per second. If the “RUN” indicator appears, you may take another Speed reading at any time, by pressing “B”. You may also instantly return to the last previous reading at any time by pressing “C”. The memory recall operation will review previous readings in ascending “UP” or descending “DN” order, depending on the option selected. NOTES: (1) The SPEED TIMER will not operate unless a distance has been entered. (2) The SC-554 will measure up to 24 hours or 999 laps.
