The Bed Scale 1000 employs the latest in microprocessor and load cell technology to provide accurate and repeatable weight data. Four (4) identically matched transducers are strategically placed to ensure an accurate representation of the patient's weight regardless of weight distribution.

The Patient's weight is displayed on a 16 character dot matrix liquid crystal display with L.E.D. backlighting. Patient weight may be viewed in both POUNDS and KILOGRAMS with the push of a button with a displayed resolution of 0.1 #/Kg (100 grams). The 1226 also features a WEIGHT CHANGE mode which makes it convenient to monitor the patient's weight relative to ZERO in order to observe variations in weight. A FREEZE feature is provided to give the added convenience of being able to adjust the patient's comfort by adding a pillow, book or adjusting the bed without effecting the patient's displayed weight

2. Press the "0.0 " button to set the relative zero.

Any variation in weight will now be viewed as a "+" or "-" figure relative to ZERO. Pressing the "WEIGHT" button will switch back to the WEIGHT MODE allowing you to view the patient's total weight again.

2. Press the " FREEZE/RESUME" button. The display will read " FREEZE = (patient weight) ".

While in the FREEZE mode, the "WEIGHT" and "WT/CHG" keys will allow you to manually adjust the displayed weight reading in the event of a known error. Simply press the "WEIGHT" and "WT/CHG" keys to make the proper corrections.
NOTE: If FREEZE Mode is left unattended for morethan 3 minutes, display will read " LEFT IN FREEZE - REFER TO MANUAL". You must press the " FREEZE/RESUME" button to exit this mode.

b) Use the "WEIGHT" and "WT/CHG" keys to ramp the displayed value to the correct weight.
c) When done press the "FREEZE/RESUME" button once again to save the correction and exit to the normal
weighing mode. If you make a mistake, press "ON" to abort your changes.
IMPORTANT: IF YOU DO NOT KNOW THE CORRECT PATIENT WEIGHT YOU MUST
REMOVE THE PATIENT FROM THE BED AND RE-ZERO THE SYSTEM.

 
  SYSTEM CALIBRATION and MAINTENANCE

IMPORTANT : The following calibration procedure should only be performed by qualified service personnel. The 1229B load cell, itself, has no user serviceable components and should not be tampered with for any reason.
Recalibration is generally not required, but should be checked periodically to ensure accuracy.

INITIALIZATION and CALIBRATION PROCEDURE :
I. Initializing
Press and Hold the "Weight Mode", "Wt/Chg" and "On" Simultaneously.
The Display will read "Hold to Init" and count down from 9 to 0 (zero).
Release the buttons and the display should read "Initializing".
When display returns to normal the system is Initialized
II. Calibration
1. Press the"FREEZE/RESUME" button to enter the FREEZE MODE.
2. When the display indicates "FREEZE = (weight)", press and hold the "LB/KG" button. The display will
read "CAL" as the right hand digit counts down to enter the CAL MODE.
3. When in the CAL MODE, the Display must be connected to the Bed. A Number will appear on the right
side of the display. This number is the "Offset" of the bed. This number should be positive and between 40 and 100 Pounds with bed ready for patient (but no patient in the bed). On PCB1857C2, use R13 to adjust the Offset to proper range (+40 to 100 lbs). Then Press Zero.
4. Place a known weight on to the weighing surface and compare it to the displayed reading.
5. Use the "WEIGHT" and "WT/CHG" keys to make any necessary adjustments to the displayed value.
The displayed value should be within 0.1% of the calibrated weight plus or minus 1 digit of reading.
6. Press "FREEZE/RESUME" to save the changes or "ON" to abort changes.

 
  SYSTEM CARE and CLEANING

CLEANING and DISINFECTING:
The readout and transducer housings for the 1229B Scale System are made of aluminum and steel with a painted surface. You need only exercise caution when cleaning the display window as this is made of clear polyester . We recommend mild soap and water for general cleaning.
