No said anything but "It's great!" b) the code is contained in a socketed PIC processor. This *might* be able to be changed to count 'the other way' and to convert run/stop to run/reset to zero. Would this help matters any? If you had a small flat-bladed screwdriver the upgrade takes 20 seconds. The cost would be around $25. Paul S.
