1.0 Introduction
The 350-10-8S Digital Stretcher Scale is designed for safe weighing of patients being received into a medical facility by a
stretcher. The heavy-duty frame and wide ramps allow easy, safe weighing and fast patient processing. The scale is also
equipped with two heavy-duty side wheels for easy portability. Movement compensation technology ensures sound, accurate
weighments.
Weight can be displayed in pounds or kilograms. To obtain a tare weight, see Section 3.4 on page 8.
Manuals and additional resources are available from the Rice Lake Weighing Systems website at www.ricelake.com
Warranty information can be found on the website at www.ricelake.com/warranties
1.1 Safety

Use scissors or a box cutter to cut the strapping bands that secure the box together.
Immediately after opening the box, visually inspect the scale to ensure all parts are included and undamaged. If parts were
damaged in shipment, notify Rice Lake Weighing Systems and the shipper immediately.
Parts contained in the shipping box include:
• Scale
• Manual
• Indicator
• Parts box containing:
Scale feet (4)
Power adapter (120/230/ ACV 50-60 Hz)

2.3 Scale Setup
Move the scale into the area where the weighing process will occur.
Place the scale on a hard, level surface for the most accurate weighments. Placing the scale on thin carpeting
is not recommended.
1. Remove scale from box by the scale base.
The scale is heavy. Use two (2) people, in order to prevent damage to the scale and/or cause personal injury.
The unit comes with four feet that must be attached to the scale base for proper operation.
The four feet are located in the parts box in the original shipping box. Use the following steps to attach the feet to the scale.
2. Tip the scale onto its side using the recessed handle openings. Ensure the scale base is securely supported on its
side, either against the wall or held by another person.
Figure 2-2. Tip Scale on Side Using Recessed Handles
When tipping the scale, be cautious of surroundings to prevent potential injuries.
3. Screw all of the four feet clockwise until firmly seated Figure 2-3 and then unscrew the feet counterclockwise four
entire turns to ensure no mechanical binding is present.
The scale will not weigh properly if the feet restrict the scale platform.

4. Transport the scale by rolling it to its intended location using two people, if not done so prior.
Figure 2-4. Use Heavy-Duty Wheels to Transport
5. Gently set the scale base down on to the floor. Ensure there is minimal clearance between the scale base and the floor
without having the scale base contacting the floor.
Figure 2-5. Scale Base Clearance
6. It is important to ensure that the scale is completely level. Gently press down on all corners of the scale base to ensure
that there are no high spots or rocking of the scale base. The level bubble must also be centered within its viewing
window.
Figure 2-6. Level Bubble
An uneven base will produce inaccurate weight readings.

4.0 RS-232 Communication
The unit comes with an RS-232 port which enables weight data to be transmitted to other devices. The RS-232 cable with
DB-9 connector (PN 100719) is available from Rice Lake Weighing Systems, see Figure 4-1 on page 11 for RS-232
connections.
The parameters of RS-232 are:
• 9600 baud (selectable baud rate)
• 8 data bits
• 1 stop bit
• No parity
• No handshaking
There are three methods of communication:
• Pushbutton keypad print
• Standard remote protocol
• Escape protocol
4.1 Pushbutton Keypad Print
With a stable, in-range weight, press and hold for at least three seconds, or until the scale emits two quick beeps.
If the scale does not beep after five seconds, release as the weight was either in motion or out of range.
• The scale will send out the following 21 character string if displaying just weight and not BMI:
xxxxxxxxx<SP>uu<SP>mmmmm<SP><CR><LF>
Where:
xxxxxxxxx is the weight with decimal point and “-” 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>
• The scale will send out the following data while in BMI mode (displaying the BMI value):
Setting Value
Gross Weight 215 lb
Tare Weight 0.0 lb
Net Weight 215 lb
Patient height 6–01.0 ft
Patient BMI 28.4
