Introduction
1.0 Introduction
The VS-20 Digital Veterinarian Scale is a professional tool providing precision weighing information. The design patented scale is multi-functional; weight is automatically displayed; after height input into scale, the patient’s BMI is displayed. The large digital display makes it easy to read the results. The VS-20 scale is used to establish weight, height and BMI (Body Mass Index). The scale is designed to adhere to the highest standards of measurement and compliance. Communication is through serial and/or USB cable and the transmission can be to a printer or PC with a click of a button. A simple and easy protocol allows a trouble-free interface to EMR data base systems.
i Manuals are available from Rice Lake Weighing Systems at www.ricelake.com/manuals Warranty information is available at www.ricelake.com/warranties
1.1 FCC Compliance
United States This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.
Canada This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio noise emissions from digital apparatus set out in the Radio Interference Regulations of the Canadian Department of Communications. Le présent appareil numérique n’émet pas de bruits radioélectriques dépassant les limites applicables aux appareils numériques de la Class A prescites dans le Règlement sur le brouillage radioélectrique edicté par le ministère des Communications du Canada.

Sends data out from the RS-232 port. Allows to toggle between kilograms and pounds providing that it is enabled in Configuration mode. Cannot toggle while in the BMI mode.
Only functions if the current weight is stable and less than 2% of the capacity of the scale. Anything over 2% requires a recalibration.
Displays most current weight value on the display and holds that value when the patient is off the scale. A second press releases the weight value. Not active while in BMI mode.
Pressing the BMI key enables access to the BMI (Body Mass Index) mode (defaults when scale is turned on). The patient is gets on the scale, weight stabilizes and press the BMI key. The display then asks for the patient height to calculate out the patient BMI. When using the BMI function, the display will be looking for a height entry. Pressing Clear changes this entry back to 190.0 cm (default) or 5 ft, 7.5 in. Once BMI is displayed, pressing the Clear key exits BMI.
Used to accept height in BMI mode; accepts the value of the parameter last entered and moves to the next stage. Pressing and holding Enter during startup will display ID. This is the first setup on entering into configuration mode.
Adjusts the value of the flashing digit/number. Adjusts height input (0.5 in/0.5 cm) while in BMI mode.

VS-20 Digital Veterinarian Scale

4.0 Communication

The unit comes with an RS-232 port that enables weight data to be transmitted to other equipment, such as a computer or printer. The RS-232 cable with DB-9 connector (PN 100719) is available from Rice Lake Weighing Systems. That connection is shown in USB Connection section on the next page. The RS-232 parameters are:
· 9600 baud (selectable in the programming mode) · 8 data bits · 1 stop bit · no parity · no handshaking There are three methods of communication: · Push- button keypad print · Standard remote protocol · Escape protocol
4.1 Push-button Keypad Print
With a stable, in-range weight, press and hold for at least three seconds, or until the scale emits two quick beeps.

NOTE: If the scale does not beep after five seconds, release

as the weight was either in motion or out of range.

If displaying weight and not BMI, the scale will send out the following 21 character string: xxxxxxxxxuummmmm

Communication
4.2 USB Connection
The scale has the capability of connecting to a Windows® computer (PC) using a USB cable (not included) and a terminal emulation program. A terminal emulation program allows the transfer of data between the scale and PC using a serial port.
USB Connection
RS-232 Connection
Figure 4-1. Connection Ports NOTE: Apple® and Macintosh® computers are unable to transfer the necessary data to the scale. Only use a PC for data transfer. Connecting software and downloads should always be addressed by the IT department for safety reasons and can vary depending on what type of computer platform is being used. NOTE: Consult the IT department if driver protections are preventing the use of the USB driver. Driver protections may need to be temporarily disabled on Windows 10 or later computers to allow for the installation of the USB driver. 1. Connect the scale’s indicator to a PC using a USB-Type B to USB-Type A cable (not included). 2. Turn the indicator on. NOTE: In most cases, the PC should find the driver and automatically configure the driver when the scale is plugged into a USB port. 3. Open a terminal emulation program, such as Advanced Serial Port Terminal, pUtty or Hercules (used in this example). 4. Connect to the serial port assigned by the PC (COM5 in example). This can be found in Device Manager. Once selected,
press Open.
