Abstract: A timer counts days or hours, instead of minutes, typically from 1 to 365 days in day mode and from 1 to 24 hours in the hour mode. An interval button can be pressed to select the number of intervals before an alarm sounds. When the start/stop button is pressed, after setting the number of intervals, the alarm will sound after the set number of intervals in the future that the start/stop button was pressed. The timer automatically repeats the last programmed interval to protect the user from forgetting to re-program for another countdown. If the user wants to program a different number of intervals, they can press a reset button and enter the number of intervals for the next event. The timer can be mounted in various manners and its housing can be designed for providing such various mounting options.

Abstract: A timer counts days, instead of minutes, typically up to 365 days. A “day” button can be pressed to select the number of days before an alarm sounds. When the start/stop button is pressed, after setting the number of days, the alarm will sound at the same time of the day, the set number of days in the future, that the start/stop button was pressed. The timer automatically repeats the last programmed daily amount to protect the user from forgetting to re-program for another countdown. If the user wants to program a different number of days, they can press a reset button and enter the number of days for the next event. The timer can be mounted in various manners and its housing can be designed for providing such various mounting options.
