2. Utilisation des fonctions
- REPOUSSER: Press the TARE button to subtract the weight of an object (e.g., clothing, additional equipment) placed on the scale before weighing a person.
- pre-TARE: Allows for manual input of a known tare weight.
- Mother/Child-Function: Enables separate weighing of a child while held by an adult. First, weigh the adult, then the adult holding the child. The scale calculates the child's weight.
- HOLD / auto-HOLD: Freezes the displayed weight value, useful for patients who cannot stand still. Auto-HOLD automatically freezes the stable weight.
- IMC: After weighing, input the patient's height using the controls to calculate and display their Body Mass Index.
- auto-CLEAR: Resets the scale to zero after a measurement.
- lbs/kg switch-over: Toggles between pounds and kilograms for weight display.
- Dampment: Adjusts the scale's sensitivity to movement, providing a more stable reading for restless patients.
3. Wireless Transmission (SEND/PRINT)
The seca 703 features wireless transmission capabilities. Use the SEND/PRINT function to transmit measurement data to compatible seca devices or software. Refer to the separate wireless module manual for detailed pairing and data transfer instructions.
4. Using the seca 220 Measuring Rod
The integrated seca 220 measuring rod allows for simultaneous height measurement. Extend the measuring rod and position the headpiece correctly on the patient's head while they stand on the scale. Read the height directly from the rod. This height can then be used for BMI calculation.
