Installing Time-X
When you download the application, it is in a disk image format. The file is titled "timex_disk.dmg".

     Disk Copy opesn and mounts the Time-X disk image. A new window opens.

2. Move the Time-X application to the Applications folder.

     There are at least two Library folders in Mac OS X. You can store skins in any or all of the Library folders.

Time-X is now ready to use.

Using Time-X
Time-X has five modes—clock, date, chronograph, timer, alarm. Time-X is always in clock mode when you launch the application. Regardless of the skin you are using, select a different mode by clicking the Mode button.

The Mode button
•  appears different depending on the skin selected.
•  is the same button regardless of the mode that is selected.
•  is the only active button when you launch Time-X.
•  is the only active button when you are in clock, date, and alarm mode. 

Chronograph and Timer Mode
In chronograph and timer mode, all three buttons are active—Mode, Start/Stop, and Reset/Lap. The buttons appear different and will be in different places depending on the skin selected. You will have to test the buttons in each skin to determine which is the Start button and which is the Reset button.

The chronograph counts up. The timer counts down. Set the length of the timer in the preferences.

•  To start (or resume) the chronograph or timer, click the Start/Stop button.
•  To pause (or stop) the chronograph or timer, click the Start/Stop button again.
•  To reset the chronograph or timer, click the Reset/Lap button.
     The chronograph resets to zero. The time resets to the time designated in the preferences.

Chronograph mode also has a lap timer. Here's how it works.

•  To start timing, click the start button.
• To stop the chronograph at the end of the first lap, click the Reset/Lap button. At this point, the chronograph is still counting up (although the numbers don't change).
•  To stop the chronograph at the end of the second lap, click the Reset/Lap button again. The display changes to show the end time of the second lap.
•  Continue to click the Reset/Lap button for each lap you are timing. The display shows the end time of the most recent completed lap.
•  At the end of the final lap, click the Start/Stop button.
•  To reset the chronograph to zero, click the Reset/Lap button.
