The CenturyTimer calculates and displays countdown or count up time, every 30 seconds. It can be set in one-minute intervals, ranging from January 1, 1900, at 12:00 AM to December 31, 9999, at 11:59 PM. It calculates and continuously displays the time, which changes every 30 seconds. Time is displayed in days, hours, minutes, seconds, deciseconds, Centiseconds, Milliseconds, Microseconds, Shakes (100 millionth of a second), and Nanoseconds (1 billionth of a second).

The CenturyTimer is easy to use. Just change the date and time in the five input boxes to the date and time that you prefer. The date you set can be in the future, or in the past. That is the CenturyTimer counts down to a designated end date, or counts-up FROM a designated start date. When the date is in the future, a negative sign (-) is displayed in front of the readouts, and the absolute value of the numbers displayed decreases with time, until it reaches zero. After this point, it starts counting upward with positive numbers. If you want to see how this works, you can easily set the CenturyTimer to reach a time zero that is a few minutes in the future.
If the CenturyTimer is set to count up, from a designated start date the readouts are displayed with positive numbers, (without a negative sign.) For a good example of the above, set the CenturyTimer to the date and time that you were born. The readouts will indicate how many days, hours, minutes, and seconds that you were alive. These numbers will increase every 30 seconds, because you are constantly getting older.

This Timer has an automatic mechanism to make corrections for daylight savings time, when it is COUNTING DOWN to an end date. This mechanism can be turned off by placing the letter X in the white input box. This is useful if you do not have daylight savings time in your locality.

To turn off Daylight Savings Time CORRECTION enter X >         
 
The user can make corrections manually for Daylight Savings Time, by entering positive or negative numbers in the adjacent input box. This generally involves a correction of plus or minus one hour, which means entering 1 or -1. When a number is entered, the correction mechanism for Daylight Savings Time is automatically turned off.
