How the Countdown Timer Works
- Set the Time: Input the desired hours, minutes, and seconds. The timer accepts any positive value, allowing you to tailor the countdown to your specific event.
- Starting the Timer: When you click "Start Countdown," the timer begins counting down every second. The display updates in real time, showing the remaining time in a clear HH:MM:SS format.
- Sound Alerts: If enabled, a gentle beep sounds when the timer reaches zero. Additionally, if the countdown goes into negative time (indicating you’re past the set time), the display will blink red and continue to beep every 15 seconds. You can toggle the alarm sound on and off with the Mute/Unmute Alarm button.
- Pausing and Resuming: At any moment during a running countdown, click "Pause Countdown" to halt the countdown. When paused, the "Resume Countdown" button becomes active, allowing you to continue exactly where you left off.
- Resetting the Timer: Click "Reset Timer" to clear the countdown, reset all inputs to zero, and stop any active alarms.
- Freeze Timer: The "Freeze Timer" button permanently locks the timer display at its current value. Unlike pausing, freezing stops the countdown completely without the option to resume—ideal for capturing or reviewing the final time.
- User-Friendly Interface: The timer’s controls automatically enable or disable based on the current state (running, paused, or frozen) to help prevent accidental misuse. The "Start Countdown" button is always available to begin a new countdown with fresh inputs.
