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
