Store Weight Value (Hold); Body Mass Index (Bmi) - Seca 984 Instruction Manual And Guarantee

Store weight value (HOLD)

You can also continue displaying the weight determined once the load has been removed.
This makes it possible to look after a patient first, before having to note the weight.
– Press the HOLD/TARE key shortly
whilst the load is on the scale.
"HOLD" appears in the digital display. The
value is stored in the display until the
HOLD function or the scale are switched
off.
– The HOLD function can be switched off
by pressing the HOLD/TARE key
again.
0. 0
appears in the display if the scale has
no load on it, otherwise the current weight.
The "HOLD" display vanishes.
Note:
The HOLD and TARE functions can also be used simultaneously.

Body Mass Index (BMI)

Body Mass Index puts height and weight in relationship to one another, providing more
accurate information than ideal Broca weight, for example. A tolerance range is given
which is considered ideal for health.
It makes sense to activate the BMI function if current patient weight can be seen in the
display.
– Press the FUNC key.
The last function used appears in the
display.
– Select the BMI function FU 1 using the
arrow keys. Activate the function by
pressing the FUNC key again.
On the display, you will see the last
height entered.
– You can use the arrow keys to adjust
the value in increments according to
the graduations displayed.
– Once the correct value is set, press the
FUNC key again. The BMI function is
now activated.
The arrow indicator points to the sym-
bol for the BMI function.
– Read off the BMI on the digital display
and compare it with the categories on
page 29.
– Press an arrow key if you would like to
see the weight briefly.
