How to Measure Weight
To ensure accuracy of measuring the weight of a client, you should make sure that their shoes
are off and they are in light clothing. If they are being retested for weight, then have them wear
similar clothing as they did last time they got measured.
NOTE: If you are using bioimpedance to measure weight, see
Body Composition Bioimpedance
for more information.
To measure weight online, click on the Measure button, tell the client to step on the scale and
wait until the green progress bar is complete. After weight has been measured, the results are
automatically displayed on the weight dial and within the weight text box.
To manually enter a client's weight, use the mouse to point and click within the weight input box
and use the number keys on your keyboard to enter the client's known weight.
To show the results for body mass index, press Show BMI. See
Body Mass Index (BMI) for more
information.
To exit Height/Weight, use the mouse to point and click on the OK button in the lower right of the
screen. The data will be saved.
Import/Export
The Import/Export feature is designed for mass import and export of data.
Import
The data can be imported in two different ways.
1. You can import demographic information and organizational level information in an XML file
following a strict format (see the xml schema and/or xml import example that were included in the
installation). When importing multiple files or importing often, this is the optimal method. Select
System Settings > Test Environment. Choose Import / Export from the Test Environment
Settings view.
