Power Supply and Low Battery

The indicator uses a rechargeable battery pack, a non-rechargeable battery pack, or can be powered from the mains via the AC adaptor.

Make sure the battery pack is installed in the battery box of the indicator. Alternatively, plug the AC adaptor (12V 2A) into the  port on the side of the indicator.

Installing and Replacing the Battery Pack

1. Take out the battery housing.

2. The rechargeable battery pack will slide into, or out of, the housing.
   

3. Check that the housing pin is connecting to the right point inside the indicator.
   

4. Place the housing back in the back of the indicator and close the battery housing cover.

Press the ZERO key once.
---|---
**| The scale will return to 0.0kg.

Hold Function

| Allow the patient to be wheeled onto the scale.
| After a few seconds the scale will lock on the person’s weight. When the patient leaves the scale, the weight will remain on the display.
| Press HOLD again to disable the Hold function and return the scale to 0.0kg.

Setting Auto Hold Function (Optional)

| The display will have a flashing triangle mark under the HOLD button once the scale is turned on.
---|---
| Allow the patient to be wheeled onto the scale. The scale will automatically lock on the patient’s weight to complete the hold function. The triangle mark remains on the display during this period.
****| When the patient leaves the scale and the scale returns to 0.0kg., the triangle mark will begin to flash again.

Body Mass Index (BMI) Function

digit will flash. Enter the height by using the numeric keys. Press the ZERO key to confirm the height. (NB: There will always be an active flashing digit in the height display, unless HOLD is pressed).

When the triangle is blinking, the device is successfully connected.

Levelling the scale

You can adjust the height of the chair scale by rotating the rear braked wheels. Please ensure there is always 15mm of thread inside the frame, otherwise there is a risk the rear braked wheels will fall off.

For safety, at least 15mm of thread should always be inside the frame of the scale

Conducted RF IEC 61000-4-6| 3 Vrms

150 KHx to 80 MHz

| 3 Vrms| Portable and mobile RF communications equipment should be used no closer to any part of the scale including cables, than the recommended separation distance calculated from the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter.
Recommended separation distance:
d = 1,2 √ P
d = 1,2 √ P 80MHz to 800 MHz
Radiated RF IEC 61000-4-3| 3 V/m 80 MHz to 2,5 GHz| 3 V/m| d = 2,3 √P 800MHz to 2,5 GHz

Where P is the maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (w) according to the transmitter manufacturer and d is the recommended separation distance in meters (m).

Field strengths from fixed RF transmitters, as determined by an electromagnetic site survey, should be less than the compliance level in each frequency range.

Interference may occur in the vicinity of equipment marked with the following symbol:

NOTE1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.

NOTE2 These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people.

A )Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the scale is used exceeds the application RF compliance level above, the scale should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as re-orienting or relocating the scale.
B )Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 3 V/m.

Recommended separation distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment and the M-200/M-210.

This scale is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of the scale can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and the scale as recommended below, according to the maximum output power of the communications equipment.

For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not listed above, the recommended separation distance d in meters (m) can be estimated using the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter, where p is the maximum output rating of the transmitter in watts (w) according to the transmitter manufacturer.

NOTE1) At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the separation distance for the high frequency range applies.
NOTE2) These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people.

Error Messages

Low Battery
The scale’s alkaline AA type batteries are flat; please replace the batteries.|
---|---
Overload
This indicates that the scale’s load sensor(s) have been overloaded. Reduce the loading and retry.|
Counting Error

1. The signal from the load cells is too high. Please remove any weight from the scale and try to power on again. If the scale continues to show the error message, it indicates a fault with the electronics or wiring.
2. The signal from the load cells is too low. Please remove any weight from the scale and try again. If the scale continues to show the error message, it indicates a fault with the electronics or wiring.

|
High/Low Zero Count

1. The scale is above its zero range. Please remove any weight from the scale and power on again. If the scale continues to show the error message, it indicates a fault with the electronics.
2. The scale is below its zero range. Check there is nothing jammed underneath the scale and power on again. If the scale continues to show the error message, it indicates a fault with the electronics.
