Q: Sprinkler timers are either plugged into an outlet or hardwired into your home's electrical system. If the system is plugged into an outlet, unplug it from the wall. If your timer is hardwired, turn off the circuit that controls the timer. Check that the display on the timer is off before continuing. Never work on your sprinkler timer while it's plugged in since you could get shocked. The access panel can usually be found near the bottom of your existing timer. Pop off the panel cover to remove it. If the timer doesn't have an access panel that pops right off, you may need to use a screwdriver to remove the faceplate. The power wires are usually white, black, and green. Unscrew the wire caps connecting the wires if there are any and untwist the wires. Separate the wires from one another so you can pull the timer unit out without damaging the power wires that run to your sprinklers. Some timer models may have the power wires in a different access panel along the wall. Your sprinkler wires can be found plugged into a numbered section inside your timer. Wrap a small piece of masking tape around each of the sprinkler wires and label them with the number of the port they're plugged into. That way, you'll know what stations to plug your wires back into when you put in your new unit. If you don't have any tape or labels, many sprinkler wires are differently colored so you can tell which wires control an area. If your unit has the wire attached with screws, use a screwdriver to loosen the connection and pull the wire out. If your timer has tabs, press down on the tab with the end of your screwdriver to make it easier to remove the wire. Once they're disconnected, pull out the wires from the bottom of your timer. Your timer should have mounting screws in the middle of the unit on the top and bottom. Use either a flathead or Philips screwdriver to loosen the top screw and to remove the bottom screw completely. Lift your unit up and off of the wall to remove it entirely. Many times, you can use the top screw again to hang your new sprinkler unit but the bottom screw may not be in the same place.
A: Turn off power to the old controller. Remove the access panel or faceplate on your timer. Disconnect the power wires from your timer. Label the sprinkler wires with pieces of tape. Pull the sprinkler wires out of the timer. Unscrew the controller from the wall to remove it.

Q: Chrono is the mode you use to track your split and lap times. It's the second option after the main clock. If you scroll too far and miss Chrono mode, keep pressing Mode to cycle through the watch options. The watch modes are Clock, Chrono, Timer, and Alarm. Cycle back to Chrono if you miss it the first time. You have 2 options for the Chrono setting. One displays the current lap time larger with the overall split time smaller. The other reverses the order, and shows the split time larger. Cycle between them with the Start/Split button. Then press Set/Recall again when you pick a format. If you're trying to improve your lap time, set the Lap to appear larger. This way, you can see how your laps are measuring up. If you're just timing your run without tracking laps, then displaying Split larger is more useful. The watch keeps the format that you picked for every time you use the Chrono unless you change it again. This begins the timer. Start your workout and use the Chrono to check your current time. If you're only measuring your overall run or exercise time, then just let the timer go. If you want a specific lap or split time, the Chrono can also measure this. If you're tracking your lap progress, press the Start/Split button when you complete a lap. The timer display will show your lap time for 10 seconds so you can read it. The timer continues running in the background and switches back after 10 seconds. You can use this feature for any measurement. Whether you're tracking your time per lap, mile, kilometer, or another distance, the Chrono will measure it when you hit Start/Split. Repeat this for as many laps as you're running to get the time for each lap. If you need a break or want to talk to someone, pause the timer by pressing Stop/Reset. Then when you're ready to start again, press Start/Split to resume the timer where it paused. Be careful not to accidentally hit Stop/Reset again to start the timer. This will erase your current workout and you'll have to start over. When you're done, stop the timer by pressing Stop/Reset and then holding the same button to reset the data. If you want to store and review your workout results, hold Set/Recall to save the data. This brings you to the workout data menu. All the results you've stored are on this menu by date. To review your workouts, use + and to scroll to the one you want to view. Then press Next (or Mode) to open a specific workout. When on a specific workout, you can view each lap of your run plus the total time. To clear a workout, hold Stop/Reset for 5 seconds. When the watch beeps, the last stored workout is deleted. Continue holding the button to erase all workouts and free up all the watch memory.
A: Press Mode until "Chrono" appears on top of the screen. Set the Lap and Split setting by pressing Set/Recall. Start the Chrono with the Start/Split button. Get your current lap time by pressing the Start/Split button. Pause the timer with the Stop/Reset button. Store the workout by pressing Set/Recall when you're done. Review your workout by pressing Set/Recall.

Q: Big anniversaries are a great time to reflect on how your organization got started and how it has since developed. Think of it as an exercise in strategic thinking. Think about the big questions about your company's past: Who founded it, and why? What was the original vision of the company? Reaffirm the values that are the hallmark of what you stand for as a company, but be willing to reassess those that have not served you well. A major corporate anniversary is a great time to issue new vision plans or mission statements for the coming years. Try filling in the blanks to complete this statement: "Our company was founded with a vision for _____. Our goals were ____, _____, and _____." Then think about whether your company met those goals, and whether it might be time to set new ones. Particularly if this is your company's centennial or other huge milestone, consider choosing an appropriate theme that builds on your company's past and current values to mark the anniversary year. For example, the year might be spent in "Innovation," "Service," "Diversity," or other value that will help to strategically situate your company for success in the coming years. Consider launching a company-wide initiative to give form to the year's theme. For example, your departments might set benchmarks or goals to measure innovation or service projects.
A:
Look at the past. Use this as an opportunity to re-examine your direction. Choose an anniversary theme.
