INSTRUCTION MANUAL CHRONO 200 MODEL (C200 #90002 Red logo)
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
Congratulations on your SportCount Chrono 200 purchase. You will be able to count laps, keep track of
elapsed time, and review summary statistics at the end of your workout. It's easy to use, and it is
operated with one hand and doesn’t interfere with the natural flow of exercise. You should take the time
to try it before you jump into your exercise routine. Practice putting the Chrono 200 through its functions a
few times. In most cases, you will want to wear it on your index finger (either the right or left hand may be
used). Make sure it is oriented so you can comfortably reach the button with your thumb.
PRACTICE SESSION
This section of the instructions takes you through a practice session. The
figures illustrate what you should see on the display as you work through
the paces.
POWER-UP
Press the button with your thumb to start the Chrono 200. On power-up, the
display will show all “0’s”, which shows that your Chrono 200 is powered up
and ready to use.

TIMING AND COUNTING LAPS
Press the button to start timing. The display will show running time (Fig. 2). Press the button again to
show the first lap number completed (Fig. 3). The lap number will show on the display for 7 seconds.
The display will then show the Lap Split Time for the lap just completed for 5 seconds (Fig. 4), then the
display will return to cumulative running time again. If the button is pressed within 10 seconds or less
from the last press, the next lap number and time will be displayed without showing total elapsed time.

TIMING OVER 1 HOUR
When elapsed time exceeds 1 hour, the display shifts two digits, i.e.,
instead of displaying minutes, seconds, tenths and hundredths of seconds,
it will now display hours, minutes, and seconds. In that case, a black bar
will appear over the two digits on the right to indicate that they now refer to
seconds (Fig. 5). The Chrono 200 will time up to 99:59'59, after which the
display will show 00’00.00 and start over. In Running Mode, if no button
has been pushed for 24hrs, your SportCount will go into sleep mode (the
display goes blank to save battery life). All data will begin to blink when the
hours exceed 100.

PAUSE
Double click the button to pause the timing function. Double click means pressing the button twice within
one second. (Fig. 6) The time will freeze and no additional laps will be counted. When you are ready to
resume, just press the button again to start the timing function.

SUMMARY MODE
Press the button at the end of your final lap ( a regular quick press) and then, to finish the timed activity
and go into the SUMMARY mode, press and hold the button for at least three seconds. You can do this
immediately or even hours later. Your SportCount Chrono 200 “knows” that the time between the end of
the final lap and the time you held the button down to go into summary mode was not a true lap, and it will
automatically eliminate the “false lap” so that your workout statistics will be accurate. For example, if you
completed 30 laps, and some time later held the button down to go into the summary mode, the
SportCount will display the “false lap” number 31, as shown in (Fig. 7). It will then discard the false lap
data, and display the corrected total lap count, “T 30”. In 1.5 seconds, it will automatically display the
TOTAL TIME, and flip back and forth between TOTAL LAP count and TOTAL TIME every 1.5 seconds.
Push the button again to show the AVERAGE LAP, 1'10.02 in the Fig.8 example. FASTEST LAP
number and FASTEST LAP time come next (Fig. 9), followed by SLOWEST LAP number and SLOWEST
LAP time (Fig.10). Pressing the button after this will start the summary over again with TOTAL LAP
count and TOTAL TIME. Pressing the button after this will show the individual LAP times starting from
LAP 1 through the last LAP, then return to TOTAL TIME.

INDIVIDUAL LAP MEMORIES
After you have gone through the summary mode statistics, push the button once again to begin reviewing
individual lap times (Fig. 11). It will start with”L1, flipping to the time for lap 1, push the button to go to lap
2, etc. The Chrono 200 can store the first 200 LAP times. However, statistics such as average, fast, slow
and total lap times remain accurate for up to 999 laps. When the 200 memories are used up, the elapsed
time display will flash.
RESET/TURN OFF
From the SUMMARY MODE, press and hold the button 3 seconds to RESET the Chrono 200 and the
display will once again return to zeros. But be careful, because when you reset your Chrono 200, all lap
times will be erased. When left in the reset mode for 30 minutes, the display will shut down automatically
to conserve battery life. Press the button to re-activate.
