Pick a match below, or write your own stage and watch it run.
Plus Mode is the run-up before a stage — usually set to however long the targets stay turned away, so you can start the timer before match firing commences and the stage comes in exactly as they turn. It's a setting on the watch rather than part of the sequence: 1–15 seconds, set to 7 here so you can see it work. A sequence beginning with # ignores it.
A stage is a list of phases separated by :. Inside a phase, the first number is the time in seconds and anything after a . is a warning, given as seconds remaining.
20.10.3 — 20 seconds, warnings at 10 and 3 left3:-5:3 — 3 seconds, 5 seconds facing away, 3 seconds#90.60.30.10.5 — a 90-second PRS par with four warningsPrefixes — # starts immediately, ignoring your Plus Mode lead-in. ^ forces the count upward for that stage.
A minus sign means you are not shooting during that phase — a load period or a turn-away. The watch shows those in blue, and Time Slice sits them out entirely.
A zero on any phase after the first is a pause: the timer stops and waits for you to press start again.
The rules below are the app's own. If the watch would reject what you type, so will this.
