Transmitting Data to a Welch Allyn Connex Device
To allow the scale to wirelessly transmit data to a Welch Allyn monitor, the included hardware must be attached to the Welch Allyn® Connex® device. See page 12 for details about connecting the scale with WelchAllyn® monitors. From the Welch Allyn® device, data can be transferred into an EMR. For data to transfer to the EMR, the EMR installed on the user’s PC must be included on the list of Welch Allyn EMR partners. Visit www.welchallyn.com to view a complete list of EMR partners. “BT” scales are preconfigured to interface with the following Welch Allyn® Integrated Wall Systems.
Connex® devices: Connex® Spot Monitor, Connex® Vital Signs Monitors, Connex®
Health o meter® Professional supports customers who wish to develop interfaces to their EMR and other computer systems. Developers can obtain the communication protocols needed for the scale models used in their particular environment at www.homscales.com/innovations/connectivity- solutions.
Transmitting Data to a Windows® PC
To allow the scale to wirelessly transmit data to a Windows® PC the scale must first be paired to the wireless settings on the user’s PC. See page 13 for more information about the set up for use with a PC. Transmitting data into an EMR system requires that the user’s Windows® PC has one of the following systems installed: Allscripts TouchWorks® or Professional™, Midmark® IQmanager® or ChARM Health EHR.

  • Allscripts Interface: To complete the connection to an Allscripts systems, users must download the Allscripts app available at www.homscales.com/innovations/connectivity-solutions. Follow the installation instructions included with the download. To complete installation, Allscripts must activate the app within the user’s account to allow for interface between the scale and the Allscripts system on the user’s PC.
  • Midmark Interface: Connection between the scale and Midmark IQ Manager requires that the user’s PC have the IQ Manager software installed. For further information users must contact Midmark Technical Support.
  • ChARM Health EHR Interface: ChARM Health users must contact their account manager to set up the service.

Transmitting Data to a Ceiba IoMT eConnect Box
The wireless module inside the scale communicates directly with the Ceiba IoMT eConnect Box. Scale and eConnect box set up and pairing is provided by Ceiba. For more information, contact your Ceiba account representative or Scott Gottman at sgottman@homscales.com.
