Buttons
There are 5 buttons on the top of the Swimnerd Personal Pace Clock. You can
click, double click, or hold down the buttons.
From left to right, the buttons are as follows:
- Power Button: hold it down, and the clock turns on. Hold it down again, the clock turns off.
- Brightness: click it to toggle between brightness settings. When configuring the Real-Time Clock or programming a set, this button is used to toggle to the correct number.
- Switch Modes: click it to toggle between the 6 modes of the clock. If a mode is currently running you must first Pause before you can switch modes.
- Enter/Configure: hold it down to configure the mode; click to enter and move to the next number
- Start/Pause/Reset: click to start a mode; click to pause a mode; double click to reset
Modes
- Count up endlessly (default)
- Real-Time Clock (24 hours)
- Real-Time Clock (12 hour)
- Simple Set (Reps x Interval)
- Varying Interval Set (different interval each time)
- Stopwatch
Mode 1: Default Count Up
When powered on, the Swimnerd Personal Pace Clock begins counting up
endlessly. Pressing (Start/Pause/Reset) will pause the clock and allow you to
switch modes.
If you double click, you will revert back to 00:00. This makes syncing
multiple clocks easy.
Mode 2: Real Time Clock (24 Hour)
Hold down the Enter/Configure button. You will see the first digit now
flashing. Use the Brightness button to toggle the number. When you have landed
on the right number, click the Enter/Configure button to move to the next
digit. Whenever you are finished choosing the appropriate time, hold the
Enter/Configure button down to save the time and begin counting.
Another great way to sync multiple pace clocks is to configure them all with
the same Real Time Clock time. Not only do you know what time it is, but your
clocks will be synced even if you lose power.
Mode 3: Real Time Clock (12 Hour)
Setting the 24 Hour RTC automatically sets your 12 Hour RTC. You do not need
to do anything in the mode.
Mode 4: Simple Set with Rep Counter, Counting Up or Down
-
Hold down the Enter/Configure button. The first two digits will appear. This is the rep counter. Enter the number of reps by using the Brightness button to set the number of reps you want. Once you have landed on the appropriate number of reps, hold down the Enter/Configure button to move on from Reps to Interval. You will now see the last 4 digits. Choose your interval using the Brightness button. Once you have the appropriate interval configured, hold down the Enter/Configure button. The clock is now programmed and ready to start.
-
You will notice one of the colon lights is on. If the bottom colon light is lit, then this set will count down. If the top colon light is lit, then this set will count up. Double click the
Enter/Configure button to toggle between Counting Up & Counting Down. -
When ready, click the Start/Stop/Pause button to begin your set.
-
When your set is finished, your clock will elicit a long beep and begin to default count up again.
Mode 5: Varying Intervals, Counting Up or Down
- Hold down the Enter/Configure button to configure your first interval. Use the Brightness button to choose your appropriate interval. Hold the Enter/Configure button down again to save your first interval and move on to your second interval. Hold the Enter/Configure button down again to configure your third interval. You will be prompted to enter a fourth interval. Let’s say you don’t want to enter any more intervals. That is fine, this fourth interval was not saved yet, only the first three. Click Start/Stop/Pause. The clock is now programmed and ready to start.
- Double click the Enter/Configure button to toggle between Counting Up & Counting Down.
- Click Start/Stop/Pause button to begin your set.
- When your set is finished, your clock will elicit a long beep and begin to default count up again.
Mode 6: Stopwatch
Click Start/Stop/Pause button to start the stopwatch. Click it again to stop.
Double click it to reset.
Bluetooth
Download the Swimnerd mobile app on iOS or Google. Once signed up, go to TOOLS
– CONNECT TO CLOCK – SCAN.
HC-08 will show up. Click on it to connect. Now, you can change the name by
clicking the icon.
Click CLOCK on the bottom of the app. This clock control center is basically a
super remote. Program anything you want into it with just a few clicks.
Including, any sort of descending or ascending ladder set.
Charging
Each Swimnerd PPC comes with a USB-C to USB-A charging cable. Connect it to your phone block, and you are ready to charge.
There is a little red indicator light on the top of the clock. When it turns
off, your clock is fully
charged.
When you plug in your PPC, it will automatically turn on. If you turn it OFF
while it is charging,
just realize that it is not actually OFF, as it can still be found by
Bluetooth. So, if you take it off
the charger while it is off, it is not actually off. Turn it on then off. If
your clock says OFF, it’s off.
