1. About the device
Functions of the unit
This diagnostic scale is designed to make a significant
contribution to your health. It is used for weighing and
for analysing your personal fitness data and is suitable
for personal home use.
Analysis is performed using the established BIA prin-
ciple (Bioelectric Impedance Analysis, see “The meas-
uring principle”, page 17). This means that two fre-
quencies, rather than the usual one, are used for this
scale so that electrical resistance (impedance) can be
more precisely determined.
In addition, the electrical contact with the body is op-
timised through the used of 4 hand electrodes and 4
foot electrodes in order to achieve a more accurate
measurement and therefore a better analysis.
The measured values are sent wirelessly within a range
of up to 2 metres. Settings can be clearly and simply
made thanks to the innovative menu navigation and are
shown on the large display in a choice of 5 languages.
The display can either remain on the scale, be placed
elsewhere or be fixed to the wall.
In order to monitor your figures over a long period of
time, you can use the enclosed USB cable and the PC
software to save your data to your computer. This turns
the scale into your very own fitness coach.
The scale offers the following functions:
• Weight measurement (in 100 g / 0.2 lb / 0.2 lb).
• Determination of the proportions of fat, water and
muscle in the body (in 0.1%), bone mass (in 100 g),
basal metabolic rate and active metabolic rate (in
kcal).
• Separate body fat and muscle measurement in the
upper and lower body with display of partial meas-
urements.
• Diagrammatic display of weight and body fat.
• Display of the last 30 measurements for 10 people.
• One-off quick analysis function for guests.
• Date and time in standby mode.
