CALIBRATION
To ensure that correct results of body composition are displayed at all times, a
BODYSTAT calibrator is supplied with each BODYSTAT unit to enable the
operator to independently verify that the unit remains in calibration at all times.
This should be done from time to time perhaps weekly depending on frequency
of use. However, this is only an independent check and an operator will not be
able to physically re-calibrate the unit nor will there be a need to do so.
It is also recommended that the operator use their own body as another
independent check. This should be performed on a subject whose body
composition does not fluctuate greatly and remains fairly constant.
PROCEDURE
1. Attach one pair of red and black leads from either of the main leadwires
to any one terminal of the calibration unit.
2. Attach the other pair of red and black leads from the remaining main
leadwire to the other terminal of the calibration unit.
3. Switch the unit ON. The leads have already been attached to
"ELECTRODES" (i.e. the calibrator) and after "MEASURING" is
displayed, the Impedance value should reflect a reading of between
496 to 503. If the reading is outside of this range, first replace BOTH lead
wires.
4. If the unit remains outside the calibration range, replace ALL 4 batteries
with ONLY Duracell® or Procell® batteries (DO NOT use
RECHARGABLES).
5. If the unit still remains out of range, contact BODYSTAT LTD or your local
BODYSTAT dealer.
