If you just want a chiming clock, set the start time to 00:00, Watch Length to 6 and Number Of Watches to 4, and it will chime halve hourly in 6 hour periods.

 

To regulate the volume of the chiming bells just use your phones normal volume up down buttons.

 

If you are crewing and carry the phone in your pocket we recommend that you use the PwrSaver mode.  You will still need to charge the phone regularly.

 

If you use system where one or more full watch patterns is not dividable by 24, Marine Chimer will keep on recalculating as long as its running.  If you leave the application and return to it, you will need to readjust the 1’st watch start time to that days correct setting and save, so it can recalculate.

 

That we allow a watch length of up to 6 hours do not in any way imply that we recommend a watch of that length.  When we sailed on a Tall Ship they used a watch length of 4 hours in a 3 watch system, and in heavy weather the professional crew utilized the chiming to change the person on the wheel every 1/2 hour.

 

No phone can be guaranteed against screen burn-in.

We recommend you get an old cheap phone if you are planning to display the Marine Chimer permanently, as in your wheelhouse or on your mantel piece,
