On the key pad we have several buttons, let's start with Run, Pause, Preset 1, and Preset 2. Normally the presets are set to a predetermined value. In this example preset 1 is set for 2:30 mins. That is a common pre-race time frame that can be used. Once the racers are situated out on the lake you can hit the run button on the top left of the keypad and the display will start counting down. Once the timer gets to zero that means the boats need to be at the starting line and ready to start, you can pause the countdown time if need be by tapping the pause button on the keypad. If you do hit the pause button make sure to hit the run button to continue your count down.
