Dual timers can be set with two different starting times. The watch can be configured
so the two timers alternate, so when one reaches the end of its countdown, the other
timer starts. You can specify a “number of repeats” value from 1 (once) to 10 (ten
times), which controls how many times the two-timer countdown operation is
performed. The starting time of each timer can be set in five-second steps up to 99
minutes, 55 seconds.
