Can it count up (without first counting down)?

Yes, if you clear it to zero then just hit start and it will count up. There will be an up arrow above the seconds counter to confirm this.

It can count down from any time you set to. It will definitely count down from 35 seconds.

Yes; I have used it to count up seconds (probably works for mins as well). If you start with zeros (both units buttons pressed simultaneously) and then press the left hand side (start) button it counts up until you stop it by pressing the start/stop button again. One press holds the elapsed time, if pressed again, it resumes the count again where it left off -- press m/s buttons simultaneously again to restart at zero.

Once the timer goes off, you hit stop and the display goes back to the amount of time you had set it for. Yes, you can hit stop part way through and hit start again to continue on the count down.

Yes, it can. You can also program in how many times you want to repeat this 'set'. Very easy to use.

Yes, it will count up until the stop button is pressed. I've never let the timer go beyond a minute and a half before turning it off so, I can't tell you how long it will continue to beep when time is up.

You can manually increase by .1 or push the button for a whole 1 point increment. Same with the speed...

sort of. You would type 3 0 Start/Stop. When it gets to zero, it starts beeping and automatically starts counting up (the numbers flash while counting up). If you press the start/stop button it stops beeping and displays 0:00 30. If you press start/stop again, it will begin counting down from 30.

Yes and no. Yes, it continues to count up while beeping (because the time is up) until you press "stop". (Very helpful for baking to know how long passed the time it is.) No, you can't use it to count up silently. If that is what you're looking for, this isn't it. Once you push "stop" the timer quits beeping and you cannot push start again to have it continue counting up silently. My old Taylor model would continue to count up silently after you pushed "stop" and only stopped completely if you pushed it twice. This would be helpful for timing how long it takes to do something, like a stopwatch. Yes and no. Yes, it continues to count up while beeping (because the time is up) until you press "stop".

Yes, you can set the timer (it counts down) pause it and it will resume counting down from where it left off.

No, it counts down to 0 on the timer and stops at 0.Have not tried counting up but it should keep going but have to watch the timer.

No, the numbers just start entering times. You then press start, so it's not a single button press if that's what you're asking. To get one minute you have to press 1-0-0-Start.

To get it to count up, press the Start/Stop button once. It will begin to count up by seconds. To turn it off and reset it to zero, press both the M (minutes) and S (seconds) buttons at the same time.

No sorry, it can countdown from a maximum of 99 minutes and 59 seconds. If we included hours on the timer the digits would need to be much smaller and based on feedback the size of the digits was more important that counting down from 2+ hours.

Good question. While it's counting down, it does not tick. When it isn't being used, it does make a small tick every second, but you can't hear it unless you're sitting right next to it. Once you turn it on it's completely silent.

Press the "M" and "S" simultaneously to zero out the time. Then hit the "start" button to count up. Not intuitive! :)

You can count what ever you want. You just push the button each action you want to count.
