1. Uvod
The Extech Instruments HW30 HeatWatch is a multi-function stopwatch designed to provide essential environmental data alongside precise timing capabilities. This device displays digital up/down timer functions, current temperature, humidity, and calculates the heat index, which indicates how hot it feels when humidity is combined with the actual temperature. It is an ideal tool for monitoring conditions in various environments, particularly those with hot weather. Additional features include a 12/24-hour clock, a standard stopwatch, 30 lap/split memory, and a programmable alarm.

6.1. Osnovne operacije i odabir načina rada
Pritisnite MODE dugme za ciklično prebacivanje između sljedećih načina prikaza:
- Vremenski način rada: Displays the current time (12 or 24-hour format).
- Način štoperice: For timing events, including lap/split functions.
- Humidity/Temperature/Heat Index Mode: Shows environmental readings.
- Način alarma: For setting and activating the programmable alarm.
6.2. Podešavanje vremena i datuma
- U vremenskom režimu, pritisnite i držite MODE dugme dok cifre vremena ne počnu treptati.
- Koristite START/STOP dugme za podešavanje trepćuće cifre (sati, minute, sekunde).
- Pritisnite LAP/SPLIT/RESET button to move to the next digit or setting (e.g., 12/24-hour format, date).
- Nakon što su sve postavke konfigurirane, pritisnite dugme MODE button to exit setup.
6.3. Using the Stopwatch Functions
- Prebacite se u način rada štoperice pomoću MODE dugme.
- Pritisnite START/STOP za početak mjerenja vremena.
- Pritisnite LAP/SPLIT/RESET to record a lap or split time. The display will momentarily show the recorded time while the stopwatch continues to run in the background.
- Pritisnite START/STOP ponovo da biste pauzirali štopericu.
- Za nastavak pritisnite START/STOP. Za resetovanje pritisnite LAP/SPLIT/RESET dok je štoperica pauzirana.
- To recall stored lap/split times, press the RECALL button in Stopwatch Mode. Use LAP/SPLIT/RESET to scroll through memory.
6.4. Humidity, Temperature, and Heat Index Measurement
