Display Pushbuttons

The Model DS7100 controls consist of LAST WEIGHT, LB, KG, ZERO,
REWEIGH and BMI buttons.  The display is used to provide weight indications
and operator messages indicating scale operation.

Power On/Off

When the patient stands on the scale platform, the indicator will turn on
automatically.  The indicator has an adjustable Automatic Shutoff Timer that will
power down the indicator when not in use.

When the zero button is pressed, the scale will be reset to zero weight.  This
feature can be used to zero out any weight not desired to be part of the patient
weight.

Units Select

Press LB to weigh in pounds and enter BMI height in feet and inches.
Press KG to weigh in kilograms and enter BMI height in centimeters.
The current unit will be displayed to the right of the weight digits.

Reweigh

To reinitiate the weighing process, press REWEIGH.  This will allow a weighment
to be reinitiated without the patient having to get off the scale platform.
