How to use ruler attachment for Extremity Measurements 

 

The ruler attachment may be used to assist in measurements of the upper and lower extremities.  It can be used as a 
place to hold the inclinometer and for alignment.  The Inclinometer inherently reads angles with respect to gravity, 
so the orientation of inclinometer needs to be positioned to read angles respect to the gravity.   The Inclinometer 
may be zeroed by pressing the ZERO button while the subject is in the neutral position

 to initialize reference angle. 

 
Then move the ruler to the second angle to be read and press 

HOLD

.  The difference angle will be stored and can be 

viewed by pressing
