Introduction; Principle Of Measurement - HMM Diagnostics ANT+ smartLAB Operación Manual

I. Introduction
Thank you for having decided in favor of our smartLAB
fit W Body Analyser
®
Scale. This product enables you to measure your body weight as well as
content of adipose, content of water, content of muscle and bone mass.
Please read the instructions carefully before you first use the scale and
keep the instructions for a future use.

Principle of measurement

Your smartLAB
fit W Body Analyser Scale is based on the principle of
®
the bioelectric impedance analysis (BIA). A weak and non-perceptible
and, therefore, not dangerous electric signal will be conducted through
thewholebody.Thescaleidentifiestheelectricresistance(impedance).
Individual data such as age, body height, gender or degree of activity
allow to identify the adipose content and other parameters.
Muscle tissue and water have a good electric conductivity and, therefore, a
lower resistance than bone- and adipose tissue because adipose cells and
bones hardly conduct current.
Please note that the values of our smartLAB
fit W Body Analyser Scale are
®
only an approach to the real medical values of the body. Only a specialist
who takes medical methods into account (e. g. computer tomography) can
identify the exact parameters like content of adipose, content of water,
content of muscles and bone mass.
The smartLAB
® fit W Body Analyser Scale is an ANT+ and Bluetooth® Smart
device.ItsupportstheANT+deviceprofileandiscompatiblewithreceiving
devices (such as sport watches, PC and Smartphones) that support the

the connection of ANT+ Scales. With the integrated Bluetooth® Smart
the smartLAB
fit W Body Analyser Scale can also sent data via Bluetooth
®
Smart to a corresponding receiver. You can then transmitt your values
wireless to these receiving devices. The smartLAB
fit W Body Analyser
®
Scale will choose the correct data transfer technology for you.
