Figure 46 Measurement Unit Tester
The tester contains five actions that are used to test the lamps
and toner of the Measurement Unit. It also contains a set of
fields that change when jump mat is connected or disconnect-
ed, when someone steps on the jump mat or when someone
enters or leaves the area covered by the photocells.
The Test Tone action tells the Measurement Unit to make a
one-second beep. Left Light and Right Light actions light the
specified lamp for a second. The Panel Light On action lights
the panel lights for one hour and the Panel Light Off action
turns off the lights.
When the jump mat is disconnected, the Disconnected field
is lit and when connected, the Connected field is lit. Note
that the On Mat / Off Mat fields are not lit when the mat gets
connected, since at that stage it is unknown whether there is
someone on the mat or not. Also note that the On Mat and
Off Mat values are determined by pressure changes in the
mat, so if you change your center of gravity while standing on
the jump mat, the values may change even if you do not step
off the mat.

7.3 Regional settings

The Regional Settings view shown in Figure 47 is used to
change the measurement units. There are two possible length
units and two possible weight units. Changes to these settings
are saved into database and are loaded when the Powertimer
SW-300 is started for the next time. Height and weight units
affect the subject's height and weight settings and certain test
parameters.
Figure 47 Regional Settings
The height and weight values are usually stored in millime-
ters and hectograms, so there might be minor rounding issues
when using inches and ounces as measurement units.

7.4 Database Manager

The Database Manager allows you to view how many entries
are in each of the Powertimer SW-300 databases. It is meant
for maintenance purposes in case the databases are somehow
corrupted, for example if Palm is turned off while it is writing
to the databases. The message shown in Figure 48 is shown if
something is wrong with the databases.
The Database Manager shown in Figure 49 has two actions:
Check Databases action is used to check the databases for
corrupt entries and to remove them. Database checking can
be a very time- consuming operation if the databases are
large. The Clean Databases action removes all entries from
the databases and resets the Tests and Test Parameters data-
bases to their default values.
