Using Device

A. Basic Operation
Switch on the device using key. The device will automatically perform self-calibration, displaying
software version.
Once "0.00 kg" appears on indicator, device is ready for measurement.
Note: If "0.00 kg" does not display on indicator, press key to zero the device.
Guide subject to sit upon sling (or other device connected to lift). After the weight has stabilized, the
"stable" symbol will appear on indicator.
Note: If subject's weight exceeds scale capacity (including tare), indicator will display "Err" prompt due
to overload.
B. Hold
The hold function determines average weight, designed to be used if subject's weight will not stabilize
(ex: an active child).
Note: if fluctuation is too severe, average weight determination will be difficult and hold may not
function correctly
1. Switch on the device normally.
2. Press the key. "HOLD" will be displayed on the indicator.
3. Conduct measurement as usual.
4. After a few seconds, the average weight will be displayed on the indicator. This weight will be locked
- at this point, subject movement will not affect weight.
5. To release the locked weight, press the key again to return to the device to normal mode.
Note: Hold function can be activated before or after subject sits in sling.
C. Tare
The tare function allows the user to deduct the weight of objects from the device's measurement result.
1. Place object that needs to be tared onto sling.
2. Press key after stable symbol appears on indicator. Display will indicate "0.00 kg".
3. Guide subject (plus tared object) to be weighed upon sling. Conduct measurement.
4. To clear tare value, remove all objects from sling, and press key.
