K8035 count down on and on

I set the value on 0000, and switch with +5v Connection. When the value it is equal, the E.out it is activated, but the count don’t stop, and go again to 59:59… it is normal?
What can i do to stop the count at preset value(without press the switch), and to keep the Eout active.

Thank’s for the answer .

You will have to use some external relays in a START-STOP configuration. Press START to start counting. The equal out can trigger the STOP. This is just a hint, please do not ask for a complete ‘how-to’ explanation.
