POUND (lb) AND KILOGRAM (kg) UNITS OPERATION
The EI-4000 meter may operate using lb or kg units. DIP switch
S1-3 selects the desired unit. If one wishes to switch to the other
unit, simply flip the switch to the opposite setting; no recalibration
is necessary. It is necessary to select the proper S1-3 switch
setting so the unit selection works properly (i.e., do not calibrate the scale in kg if the S1-3
switch is set to lbs). Also, all parameters that were set using the previous units are converted
to the equivalent value of the newly selected unit.
