5. Personal Profile
Age, height, weight and gender are the key personal information required to
analyze the body composition. To reduce the probabilities of an error and to
obtain reliable results, follow the instructions presented below.
A. I.D. (permissible range of input : 20 characters)
Use the numeric buttons to enter data. With each button press, numbers or
alphabets are displayed in the sequence shown on the keypad.
B. Age (permissible range of input : 3years ~ 99years)
Use the numeric buttons to enter data. Age should be based on the western
standard. For the patient of under 18 years of age, the user can include one
decimal point in the age text field for more accurate testing. The decimal digit
represents the number of months elapsed since the last birthday and should be
decimal expressions of a fractional number with the denominator of 12. For
example, the 16.5 years old can be translated into 16 years and 6 months old (6
months/12 months=0.5).
C. Height (permissible range of input : 95cm ~ 220cm ; 3ft. 1.4in. ~ 7ft. 2.6in.)
Use numeric buttons to enter height. Heights can have one digit under the
decimal point. As the height the patient remembers might not be accurate,
measure the height of the patient before conducting body composition analysis
using the InBody720.
D. Gender
Female is selected as a default. Press the button of the gender of the patient. For
men, press the male button and for female, press the female button.
E. Weight
When the patient steps on to the InBody720, the equipment weighs the patient
immediately and the value for weight is automatically recorded into the weight of the
personal information windows. To deduct the weight of clothes, go to the Chapter 3
Setup Establishment and then to the others setting or Chapter 2 , Section 4 Initial
screen and Input.
After entering two digits for age and three digits for height, move on to the next text field. If you want to use
the decimal digits for age and height, use the direction button ( ) to back to the previous text fields and
enter the values for decimal digits. In entering weight, you can enter a certain number of decimal digits.
