Navigation through the program that runs on the Q3 is done by use of a couple of menus. To
get to the main menu, press the
MENU
key. When you do, the top four lines of the menu
will appear on the screen. For reference, the entire menu is shown below on the right. Use
the up and down arrows to move the blinking cursor through the list of screens. When the
cursor is next to the screen you want, press the
ENTER
key.
Here is a brief introduction to the various screens listed in the
main menu:

This screen shows you either the BIA readings currently being
measured (if cables are currently connected to the patient) or
the message saying the cables are disconnected.
