Can it be used as a count up timer, like a stop watch? If I were to press the Clear button, then the Start/Stop button, would it count up from 00:00?
1148255
Yes, it will count "UP". Just as you indicated, press start/stop and it will start "UP" from "00".
1148256
Yes! When it is used as an additive counter there is an "up" arrow displayed above the seconds. Of course it will only count up to 99:99:99.

Yes, it can be used as a stop watch. It will count up. It is very versatile.

The clock continues to count after zero time (the alarm sounds and the timer counts up from zero so you can tell how long since the alarm sounded). You can press a few buttons and the timer will recall the last timer interval so you can start another countdown. The timer controls seemed non-intuitive an took me a while to figure how to control it with minimal button pushes. Once you learn how to drive it, this is the best timer I have ever used; i have three of them. I've been using them for 4 years and they stop working after 14 months (actually the begin working weird, once that happens they are unusable.

The stopwatch works OK on regular use eg, stop and start, but there is no recall button for the times you press the split feature. The clock is always on so you can't really turn the whole thing off.

You can do count-down or count-up. If you want to do count-down, specify the duration of time (ex. 15 min) and push START. If you want to do count-up, then set the time to zero and push START.

Sorry, I do not use the clock because every time I press the reset button to zero out the stroke count, the clock would reset to 12:00.

Yes. Set the time, let it run down until it beeps. When you hit the stop button it resets to the original set time. If you want to clear the set time, pres both the hour and minute buttons down at the same time and it will reset to zero.

Yes and no. Yes, it continues to count up while beeping (because the time is up) until you press "stop". (Very helpful for baking to know how long passed the time it is.) No, you can't use it to count up silently. If that is what you're looking for, this isn't it. Once you push "stop" the timer quits beeping and you cannot push start again to have it continue counting up silently. My old Taylor model would continue to count up silently after you pushed "stop" and only stopped completely if you pushed it twice.

I just tried to set it for a 24 hour countdown. The most I could do was 9:99:99. I don't know about a count up, but I imagine it would be similar.

Yes. Once it hits zero, hit the stop button. It'll go right back to whatever time you started with. If you stop it in advance of hitting zero, however, you need to set the time again.

I'm not sure this is the timer for you. It sounds like you are looking for a count-down type timer and this really isn't designed for that. This is made to turn things on and off at certain times and I really don't think you will be happy trying to use it as a count-down. I don't know mutch about the digital timers but believe a digital might be your best bet.

It always counts down seconds. On the timer at least. I haven't used the "count-up" feature.

Press the minute button once. If I remember correctly, you will not see the seconds count down like most timers, you will just hear the sound after one minute. I gave this to my granddaughter so I do not have it with me. I did not know it was like this when I ordered it, I am so used to seeing seconds count down 59, 58...

I found I needed to sync it. The watch resets at midnight. If there is a different way to program it I couldn't find one. I do shift work so I wanted a different reset time but couldn't change it. I hope this helps.

I have never seen a timer (and I have four different ones) that can do what you are asking. You can set it for 20 seconds, and it will ding. It automatically goes back to 20 seconds again when you press the stop. Maybe the answer is to buy two timers, set them on different time lengths and go from there.

It's just a basic timer. Go, stop, and clear. Goes up to one hour. Not a clock. I teach. I use it to time tests. Has 00:00:00 on it. I had a sports timer before. This one is easier to use and more accurate.

If you press start, it starts to count up. If you then press stop/reset button, it stops counting up. If you press stop/reset button again, it resets.If you put in an amount of time, such as 44 minutes, press start button it starts to count down. If you then press stop/reset button, it stops the countdown. If you press start again, it continues to count down. If you press stop/reset again, it resets to zero.

Not really. The timer counts up silently until 99:99:99. When you set it to count down (4 minutes for example) and the time runs out (4 minutes passes) it always beeps. Once you hit any button it stops beeping. Alternatively, it does quit beeping after 1 minute. Cannot silence the beeping.
