Visit www.ricelake.com/webinars 4 Visit our website www.RiceLake.com Introduction 1.0 Introduction The 650-10-1 Neonatal Scale provides precise weighing of infants and newborns. The scale is equipped with MotiontrapTM, a special motion sensing weighing technology, which compensates for involuntary movement caused by an active infant. The infant's weight can be displayed in pounds/ounces or in kilograms/grams. The weight is displayed until reweighing is performed or until the scale zeros out. There are precautions that must be taken to prevent injury to the baby and damage to the scale. Follow all instructions for installation and usage included in this manual. The manufacturer is not responsible for any damage or injury from incorrect operation or manipulation by the user. Manuals and additional resources are available from Rice Lake Weighing Systems at www.ricelake.com/manuals Warranty information is available at www.ricelake.com/warranties Safety Definitions: DANGER: Indicates an imminently hazardous situation that, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury. Includes hazards that are exposed when guards are removed. WARNING: Indicates a potentially hazardous situation that, if not avoided, could result in serious injury or death. Includes hazards that are exposed when guards are removed. CAUTION: Indicates a potentially hazardous situation that, if not avoided, could result in minor or moderate injury. IMPORTANT: Indicates information about procedures that, if not observed, could result in damage to equipment or corruption to and loss of data.

Failure to follow the instructions or heed the warnings could result in injury or death. Contact any Rice Lake Weighing Systems dealer for replacement manuals. WARNING Failure to heed could result in serious injury or death. Never leave an infant unattended on the scale. Ensure weighing tray is secured to scale base prior to placing an infant/newborn on weighing tray. Do not transport the scale with the infant in the weighing tray. Do not use around flammable materials. Scale should only be used to determine weight of infant/newborns. It is not intended to diagnose, prevent and monitor diseases. To avoid cross contamination, the scale plate must be cleaned after each use. Avoid direct skin contact during weighing. Use disposable paper towels or bed pads for each scale. Operation at other voltages than specified could damage the equipment. Rice Lake Weighing Systems offers optional adapters. Utilizing an adapter not supplied by the company voids all warranties. Do not modify this scale without authorization of the manufacturer. Do not drop the scale or subject it to violent shocks. For accurate weighing, the scale must be placed on a flat, stable surface. For accurate weighing, verify proper operation according to the procedure described in this manual before each use. © Rice Lake Weighing Systems All Rights Reserved 5 650-10-1 Neonatal Scale 1.1 Standard Features · Movement compensation technology · Two-sided tray with built in measuring tape · Hold function · Reweigh · Lb/kg toggle key · RS-232 or USB output · Auto power-off · Low battery indicator · 6 AA LiFeS2 lithium iron disulfide batteries 1.1.1 Options · AC Adapter NOTE: AC adapter does not charge the batteries. 1.2 Information Symbols The International Electro-Technical Commission (IEC) has established a set of symbols for medical electrical equipment, which classify a connection or warning as a potential hazard. The classification of symbols is as follows: Type BF (Body Protected) This means that the unit complies with the specified requirements of this standard to provide protection against electric shock. Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) The device can be sent back to the manufacturer for recycling or proper disposal. Alternatively, the device must be disposed in accordance with national laws when scale is no longer used. 6 Visit our website www.RiceLake.com 1.3 Scale Display 1 2 3 4 5 Introduction 9 10 6 8 7 11 12 13 14 18 17 16 15 Figure 1-1. 650-10-1 Neonatal Scale Display Item No, Description 1 Zero 2 Battery Icon 3 USB 4 Lock 5 Unit length 6 Unit weight 7 Net 8 Gross 9 Hold 10 On/Off 11 Reweigh 12 Hold/Release 13 Tare 14 Zero 15 Units/Clear 16 Enter 17 Shift Left 18 Up/Down Arrows Function Zeros display; enables tare of weight for weighing accessories Indicates scale is running on battery power Indicates USB port is available Indicates scale weight is locked and will remain on display Displays baby's length; inches or centimeters Displays baby's weight; pounds or kilograms Indicates net weight of infant after blankets/accessories have been tared off Indicates gross weight of infant including blankets/accessories Displayed weight remains on display after removing infant from scale Turns scale on/off Allows repeated reweighing of an infant; a long key press activates the print function First press holds current weight on display; a second press releases it Removes weight of items used to place baby on scale; scale zeros and NET displays Returns scale to zero, only works if the weight is stable Toggles between lb and kg on display; Clear function is used in setup mode only Used in setup mode only Press to shift the flashing digit to the left when entering a preset tare Adjusts the value of the flashing digit/number during menu setup; also used for adjusting a preset tare value Table 1-1. 650-10-1 Neonatal Scale Display © Rice Lake Weighing Systems All Rights Reserved 7 650-10-1 Neonatal Scale 1.4 Operation 1.4.1 Before Using the Scale Use the following steps for initial setup. 1.

The RS-232 cable with DB-9 connector (PN 100719) is available from Rice Lake Weighing Systems. Figure 5-1 shows where the RS-232 connection is. The RS-232 parameters are 9600 baud (selectable in the programming mode), 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity and no handshaking. The method to access weight data from the computer is: · Pushbutton keypad print - Done by pressing and holding the REWEIGH key. 5.1 Pushbutton Keypad Print With a stable, in-range weight, press and hold the REWEIGH key for at least three seconds. Note that if the scale does not beep after five seconds, then release the button as the weight was either in motion, or out of range. The print will show on the display when it is transmitting data. If displaying weight, the scale will send out the following 21 character string: xxxxxxxxx<SP>uu<SP>mmmmm<SP><CR><LF> Where: xxxxxxxxx is the weight with decimal point and (-) neg sign, if negative uu is the unit (lb or kg). mmmmm is the mode (gross or net) Examples: -10 Lb net = <SP><SP><SP><SP>-10.0<SP>lb<SP><SP>Net<SP><SP><SP><CR><LF> 10 Lb gross = <SP><SP><SP><SP><SP>-10.0<SP>lb<SP>Gross<SP><CR><LF> 5.2 USB Connection The 650-10-1 Neonatal Scale has the capability of connecting to a PC using a USB connection and a USB cable.
