Information on verification of the scale
3.3 Geographic position
The location data of the place of application (latitude and altitude, geolocation data
of the scale) is saved on the terminal and secured against accidental changes by a
non-resettable change counter. The location data of the operating location and the
associated change counter can be read off the scale label on the rear of the device
(see Fig. 2/1 in chapter 3.5.1 Device labeling).
In addition, the location data of the operating location stored in the device can be
read out via the service menu (see Fig. 13/3 and chapter 3.11 Access to the service
menu).
When calibrating the weighing module, the location data of the calibration location
(cannot be read out) is read out for the currently set place of application and saved
in the weighing module together with the calibration curve. Every calibration
process is secured against unauthorized changes by a non-resettable change
counter (calibration counter). The counter reading of the change counter is noted
on the label on the weighing module together with the calibration date. The
calibration counter can also be read out in the service menu (see Fig. 13/2 in
chapter 3.11 Access to the service menu).
Before starting the weighing process, the geolocation data is transmitted from the
terminal to the weighing module using a secured data path. The weighing modules
uses the transmitted geolocation data and the stored location data of the calibration
location to perform a geocorrection. The corrected weight value in grams is
transmitted to the terminal via the secured data path and Weight (full resolution)
[g] and Weight [g] are displayed in the service menu. The weight value Weight [g]
is displayed in accordance with the scale’s metrological specification in clinical
operation.
3.4 Software identification
To completely identify the software, the software version of the weighing module
must be considered together with the product software version.
The software version of the weighing module can be read off the label on the
weighing module (see the Fig. 3 circled in green in chapter 3.5.2 Labeling the
weighing module). The product software version can be read off the scale label on
the rear of the device (see Fig. 2/1 in chapter 3.5.1 Device labeling).
The software versions can also be read out in the service menu (see Fig. 12/1 and
Fig. 13/1 in chapter 3.11 Access to the service menu).
3.5 Labeling
3.5.1 Device labeling
The scale label (2M60669, Fig. 2/1) with information on the scale and the device’s
name plate (Fig. 2/2) are located on the rear of the device.
