Modes
The Modes tab chooses between the clock and a countdown, and what each tube shows.
Mode
- Clock (default) – shows the time.
- Countdown – counts down to a date and time you choose.
The cards below change with the mode.
Clock format
Current clock format shows the format in use. To change it, type a new one into Change clock format and confirm. The button next to the field returns the default format.
The format has one character per tube, read from the left. The separator tubes take a : or . character, so the separators must stand on the separator tubes:

3rd and 6th character |
| Puri 4 | HH:mm |
3rd character |

Countdown
Set the target in Change countdown date and time; the time is taken as the local time of your phone or computer. Countdown to shows the current target, and Change countdown format sets what the tubes show, with the same codes as the clock format.
The countdown stops at zero and stays there; the clock gives no signal. With the default format the countdown shows hours, minutes and seconds, so it suits events less than a day away.
