5.3 Performing a bioimpedance measurement
Switching on the device 1. Ensure that the device has no load.
2. Press the ON/OFF button.
The start screen appears.
The
weight/height tab is active.
Determining weight and height ► Determine weight and height as described in the section entitled
“Determining weight and height” from page 27.
Checking module selection
1. Activate the bia tab.
Bioimpedance analysis is available when the message “Self-test running”
is no longer displayed.
If the device is configured accordingly (see “Configuring the device” on
page 61), the
module selection dialog window appears. The Raw data for
impedance
evaluation module is deactivated at the factory.
Activation/deactivation of the
