What Timer Settings Mean for an Assigned Exercise
The settings on this timer control a duration, a display and an ending sound. They do not define a DBT exercise or offer instructions for handling a crisis.
A practical way to use the display
If an existing exercise uses a timer, follow its assigned duration and stopping instructions. Choose the sound setting before starting, and use Pause or Stop as needed within that plan. A preset is a convenient button, not a clinical recommendation.
Open the timer
Use the free visual timer to set minutes and seconds, pause or stop, and choose the display and alarm settings. Keep the tab open and the device awake while timing.
