If I clear the timer so it is at zero and then I press start, does the timer start counting upwards?

Yes Donald it does - but if you set it - it can also count downwards - depending on what you are wanting it for. It is a great clock. Joyce

Yes. Just push the "Start Stop/Enter" button once. When you are ready to start it again, then press that button again and the timer will continue where it left off.

Oh my word. Thank you for the question. YES. I tried it as you said... I was wondering why my timers would all start over. I'v purchased a lot of them, so I won't forget things.. Yes... I put in 3 seconds, it went off; so I pushed stop. Then, I just pushed start again, and it counted down the 3 seconds. I did it about 4 times... 'cool' and thanks again for the question.

No, it is strictly a timer. Otherwise it displays all zero's when not in use.

No, in order for it to start again at the same time you must press Clear, then Memory. That sets all three timers back to the time last used.

I timed it today. 10 seconds, so you have to readjust the height of the start point of the switch accordingly.The timer is sealed. The timing circuit is pre-programed (electronically by micro chip) and is not user customizable.

Yes; I have used it to count up seconds (probably works for mins as well). If you start with zeros (both units buttons pressed simultaneously) and then press the left hand side (start) button it counts up until you stop it by pressing the start/stop button again. One press holds the elapsed time, if pressed again, it resumes the count again where it left off -- press m/s buttons simultaneously again to restart at zero.

This timer will remember the times you set. Even after the timer begins counting past your set time, just hit the stop button twice, and it will reset the timer back to your original time.

When the time expires and the alarm goes off, hitting the stop button resets it to the last time entered. All you have to do to start it again it hit the stop/start button again. Pressing both the minutes and seconds buttons together resets the timer to zero.

From my experience you have to clear the timer first, but there may be a way!

I guess they must have updated it, but the one I bought in January 2016 does count up after the timer went off, in minutes and seconds.

No, the countdown is powered. You might be able to use an RB5 relay, so when power is removed from the relay, power is supplied to the timer board.

Yes. Very simple. To count up just press start/stop button. It immediately starts counting UP per second. To stop the count, just press the start/stop button again when desired. Will count up to 9 hours, 59 minutes, 59 seconds. After noting time expired, just press the clear button to reset to zero. This timer is elegantly simple.

sort of. You would type 3 0 Start/Stop. When it gets to zero, it starts beeping and automatically starts counting up (the numbers flash while counting up). If you press the start/stop button it stops beeping and displays 0:00 30. If you press start/stop again, it will begin counting down from 30.

Yes! You can stop and start it over again and it will not go to zero until you push a "clear" button. Super easy to use, my kids love it.

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