Can I use this to just show me the time since I last opened the case? What does the "count up" timer do? Can you use it without it beeping? I just need something that tells me how long since I last took my medicine so I don't accidentally take it twice...

The timer counts down the time from you set. It does not start or stop when opened. The timer can only use a beeper.You can use the case without using the timer. Hope this helps.

Yes, you can use the timer for counting up. All four timers, T1, T2, T3, and T4, can either be used for counting up or counting down, simultaneously.

Yes. There is a stop watch function to count up. There is NO timer for a count down.

No. You can only use it as a timer. If set on 0000 - it will count up. If set for 0500 - it will count down to 0. It is not a clock - it is just a timer.

Hey H.G. Coon, thanks for that hint. I've had my timer for a long time but never noticed that little thing on the back where you can change the basic time from minutes ("M") to hours ("H"). To M. Nieto: H.G. Coon is right! On another feature I like about this timer, you can turn the beep sound off. This is good for a number or reasons, but one reason is that you can set the timer without it going beep beep beep when you input the time you want to count back from. If a person cuts the beep off and forgets to turn it back on, the thing vibrates real good when the designated time runs out whether the beep is on or off. Hey H.G. Coon, thanks for that hint.

It goes back on it's on each day. If you hit memory, the 7 days are stored there..but you have to hit mode on that day to see that day's total. The time has to be exact. When I first set the time, I set it wrong, so I had to reset the time again went to mode, found the time and reset it; you can hit set and you will be able to reset each mode that you want.

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.

If you take it off...mine doesn't count much if any while travelling in a car and I'm disappointed sometimes it doesn't count enough for riding my bike. ;-) I am unhappy mostly with customer service and it doesn't keep the time on the same screen as my last Omron pedometer did. I'm also unhappy it doesn't upload steps to facebook as its advertisements lead you to believe. You can upload to your private page and get a graph, but I could do that with my old one. You can post "badges" (I don't need badges, thank you, I want to share my stinking steps and miles!!!)I had my last pedometer for 5 years and zero complaints so the fact that I am unhappy with this one is an indicator. Try the triangle one, I think it is the J-321. Purple and grey. Old style but the battery lasts longer (6 mos versus 2.5 to 3 mos), you can still upload but with a cable...to me, the USB is not enough of a draw over cable since the pedometer itself...in a word...sucks in comparison. This was NOT an upgraded model. It was a sucker draw, and I was the sucker. I can't get any resolution out of customer service...they want to appear to upgrade, not truly upgrade. They did do a "customer service" call to verify that my complaints were accurate. (I complained about the time stamp and she called to say that "yes, the model you have does not tell the time on the same face.) I repeated what the gal said and asked her if that sounded like she answered a question and she giddily said, "yes, thank you. I'm glad we could satisfy you." and hung up...no longer an Omron fan to say the least. Happy Hiking though! Again, I DO like the old style if you can get it.

No I don't think so. There are two timers for two different time intervals for switching back and forth. But there is only one start/stop button. I purchased it and use it as a count down timer. When time reaches zero, it begins counting up. The audible alert has hi/ low/ off. And off is sometimes very handy. I use it for meetings, and can watch the visual indicator with the audible alert turned off.The question posted by Erik; maybe two simple sport stopwatches would serve your needs. I've had a Robic sport stopwatch for a different purpose for many years. That is how I was familiar with that brand name. No I don't think so.

You can use it like a standard stopwatch. I don't know if it rolls over on counting up, but there is a one digit day position on the stopwatch function, so it might count up to 9 days, 59 minutes, 59 seconds. I bought it specifically for the countdown feature, which works very well. You can check on their website for more specifics.

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.

Press the "M" and "S" simultaneously to zero out the time. Then hit the "start" button to count up. Not intuitive! :)

This would be great for that. If you don't clear the timer, you can just push start again to restart your last amount of time you set. So, you'll set it on 1 minute, press start, the alarm will beep when the minute is up, you'll push the start/stop button to stop the beeping, and then you'll push the start/stop button to restart your last entered time (1 minute) to repeat this process. Also, this will be great for walking because you can clip it to your clothes or clip it to some string to wear it around your neck like a stop watch.

Yes, it will count "UP". Just as you indicated, press start/stop and it will start "UP" from "00".

We have only used the clock to count up instead of a countdown. Without having it handy to look at, I believe we made that decision because we could not turn off the horn (which is a quick beep, not a annoying loud buzzer.)

set the time you want and then push the memory button. I use mine to remind me to take my medicine. I need to get another because this did not last but 9 months.

If you're a light sleeper, it should wake you up. Keep it nearby, especially for ease, and it shouldn't be a problem at all. It's a great little timer. It even displays the last time you opened the bottle, so you will know when you last took your pill!
