Weighing without the App

After inserting the batteries, your scale is ready to use. However, without the Runcobo app you will only see your weight display on the scale. You will need the app to see other measurements. RENPHO-ES-WBE28-Smart-Body-
Composition-Scale-fig3

  1.  Place the scale on a hard, flat surface.
  2.  Step onto the scale to turn on the scale, then step off to let the scale calibrate. Wait until you see the scale displays “CAL” and followed by “00”, then step on the scale again to measure your weight.
  3.  Keep standing on the scale until the digits on the screen flash three (3) times with your final measurement.

Setup Mobile App

After setting up your scale, you need to setup your mobile app. Without the app you can only see your current weight display on the scale. You don’t see your body compositions measurements. You cannot track your history either.
With the mobile app, you will have full access to all the measurements from the ES-WBE28 scale. All the measurements will display on your mobile app. The mobile app provides easy tracking of your weight history and many more features.
The ES-WBE28 scale supports both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi wireless connections. You can use the scale with Bluetooth only, without setting up Wi-Fi connections. With or without the Wi-Fi connections you will have all of your measurements and all of your history. It is highly recommended that you setup Wi-Fi connections if a secure network is available. Scale with Wi-Fi connections offers additional features and conveniences.

Setup App with Wi-Fi Connections

The ES-WBE28 scale supports both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi wireless connections. You don’t have to use the Wi-Fi connections because the Bluetooth alone will have all of your measurements and all of your history. However, It is highly recommended that you setup Wi-Fi connections if a secure network is available. With Wi-Fi connections, your scale offers additional features and conveniences.

  •  Wi-Fi connections’ range is longer than Bluetooth connections.
  •  With Wi-Fi connections you will be able to receive scale measurement data without running the app. You can use the scale hands-free.
  •  Wi-Fi wireless connections are more robust. Typically, you don’t need reconnections once the Wi-Fi is configured.

During the settings, you will need to have Bluetooth connections first. Then we will configure your scale’s Wi-Fi connections. By the end of this section you will have your measurement done using Wi-Fi connections.
NOTE: With the Wi-Fi connections, your measurement data will be uploaded from scale to your home’s wireless router through Wi-Fi connections. Then your data will be sent to the Runcobo’s secure data server over the internet (the cloud). Your mobile app running on your smartphone will download your measurement data from the data server. It differs from the Bluetooth connections, where your scale sends data directly to your phone.

Measurements

In this section, measurements refer to full measurements with a user’s app already setup.

Measurements with Bluetooth Connections
When measuring with your Runcobo app open, the Bluetooth connection will be used. Your measurement data will be sent to your app through the Bluetooth.

  1.  Make sure your phone’s Bluetooth is on. Login to your app.
  2. Step onto the scale to turn on the scale, then step off to let the scale calibrate. Wait until you see the scale displays “CAL” and followed by “00”, then step on the scale again to measure.
  3. On your scale, the Bluetooth icon will appear. On your app’s “Measurements” screen the circles will spin until stabilized to display the measurements.

Measurements with Wi-Fi Connections
You don’t need to open your Runcobo app before you use the Wi-Fi connections. You may disable your phone’s Bluetooth. Your measurement data will be uploaded to the cloud server first then to your app. RENPHO-ES-WBE28-Smart-Body-
Composition-Scale-fig8

  1.  Don’t open your app.
  2.  Step onto the scale to turn on the scale, then step off to let the scale calibrate. Wait until you see the scale displays ‘CAL’ and followed by ‘00’, then step on the scale again to measure.
  3.  On your scale, the Wi-Fi icon will appear. When completed, the scale will display “OPEN APP”. It means your measurement data is already sent to the cloud server. You now can open your app to read your measurements. You can open the app now, or you can choose later time to read your data.

Switches between Bluetooth and Wi-Fi Connections
Switches between Bluetooth connections and Wi-Fi connections are automatic, no user interventions are required.
Of course, if you haven’t setup your Wi-Fi connections yet, you will always use the Bluetooth connections. There are no switches.
If you already setup your Wi-Fi connections, your Bluetooth connections are also setup. If you open your app before you make a scale measurement, the Bluetooth connections will be used. Otherwise, if you didn’t open your Runcobo app (or your phone’s Bluetooth is disabled, or your phone is too far away from your scale), then you will use the Wi-Fi connections. Switches between the two are automatic. Users don’t need to worry about which connections are used. Either connection method, you will be able to see your data from your app.

Maintenance

Recalibrating the Scale
If the scale has been moved or flipped upside down, it must be recalibrated to ensure accurate results.

  1.  Place the scale on a hard, flat surface.
  2.  Step on the scale with one foot until the display until the digits appear on the display, then, step off.
  3.  The scale will show “CAL” then “0.00”, indicating that the calibration process is complete.

Battery Replacement
The display will show “Lo” when the batteries need to be replaced.  RENPHO-
