Using The Compass; Chrono Mode - Timex Expedition WS4 User Manual

Using the Compass

After you have calibrated your compass, you will see the current compass
heading, cardinal points, and the digital compass needle when you enter
Compass Mode. After 30 seconds the compass reading times out and dis-
appears from the watch display to preserve battery life. Press START/SPLIT
to display the current heading for another 30 seconds.
TIP: Your watch would be a great tool for orienteering. You can
use your compass to navigate way points and if you participate
in an orienteering race, you can time yourself using the chrono-
graph (see next section).

CHRONO MODE

Your watch includes a chronograph, which is a stopwatch function. The
chrono can track up to 100 hours and 99 laps. The data you collect while
running the chronograph can then be used to check your progress in
Review Mode. (See page 31 for more information about Review Mode).
