8.1 Timer.

The timer allows a specific time to be counted down. A tone is emitted
when the end time is reached. The timer application contains various
edit boxes and buttons to set the time, watch the time pass while the
timer is running, and to stop and start the timer.
To start the timer, proceed as follows:
1. From the main menu, select menu item Timers > Timers
(countdown).
2. The timer will open at an "elapsed" field giving the running time in
minutes and seconds. When opened for the first time or when the
timer is stopped, this will read 00:00:00.
3. The timer duration is set to 10 minutes (00:10:00). This can be
changed in the "Set duration" edit box to a maximum of 23:59:59.
4. Select "Start" to switch the timer on and begin the countdown. The
"Start" option is no longer available and "Stop" appears instead,
which allows the running timer to be stopped.
5. During countdown, the "elapsed" field shows how much time has
elapsed starting from 0 and ascending, and the "remaining" field
shows the time remaining.
