The International Electro-technical Commission (IEC) has established a set of symbols for medical electrical
equipment, which classify a connection or warning any potential hazard.
The classification of symbols is as follows.
Isolated patient connection (IEC 60601-1-1:1995 Type BF (Body Protected))
This means that the input connectors are suitable for connection to humans provided there is no direct electrical
connection to the heart.
This symbol identifies a safety note. Make sure you understand the function of the device before using. This
symbol is described in appropriate operating manual where it is necessary to follow specified instructions and
safety is involved.
Identifies equipotential ground (IEC 417-5021). This symbol is used in applications where it is important to
indicate to the operator that two or more accessible functional earth terminals or points are equipotent. More for
functional purposes than for safety purposes the protective conductor terminal is placed at the device earthlings
point.
This symbol is an inside system. It identifies the point where the safety ground of the system is fastened to the
chassis.

Competitor Series Installation & Operation Manual — Introduction 5
2.0 Introduction
The Competitor Series comes in three models:
• D1000-3, Full Body
• D1000-2, Hand to Hand
• D1000-1, Foot to Foot
Model D1000-2
Hand to Hand
Model D1000-1 Foot
to Foot
Model D1000-3 Full
Body w/ optional
column shown
The Competitor Series is a body scanning device that measures the impedance of the human body by 
Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (B.I.A.). Using the impedance value and personal data (height, age, gen-
der, weight), it provides:
•Mass of body fat — Weight
• Lean body mass — L.B.M.
• Total body water — T.B.W.
• Intra-cellular water — I.C.W.
• Extra-cellular water — E.C.W.
• Body mass index — B.M.I.
• Percent of body fat — P.B.F.
• Basal metabolic rate — B.M.R.
•Segmental lean body mass of five body parts (trunk, right arm, left arm, right leg, and left leg).
Note
This applies only to the full body model (D1000-3) of the Competitor Series and is shown in
Figure 2.2 on page 7.
The B.I.A. method is a way to analyze body composition by measuring the resistance generated from the
human body when harmless alternating current flows through the body. It can be used not only to diagnose
obesity but also to prevent secondary diseases caused by obesity.
The Competitor Series measures body resistance with a tetra-polar electrode technique. With the touch
type electrode, body resistance can be measured by holding the electrode, stepping on the electrode or
touching the ankle.

6Competitor Series Installation & Operation Manual
2.1 About Body Composition
In physical fitness, body composition is used to describe the percentages of fat, bone and muscle in human bodies.
Because muscular tissue takes up less space in our body than fat tissue, our body composition, as well as our
weight, determines how lean our body is. Two people of equal height and body weight may look completely
different from each other because they have a different body composition.
The following points describe things about body composition, its makeup and about the measuring process and are
explained in further detail below.
• Body Composition
• Obesity
• Necessity of Body Composition Analysis
• Waist to hip ratio
Body Composition
The human body consists of body fat and lean body. Lean body means non-fat constituents of the human body like
body water, muscles, and bones.
Body water is divided into intra- and extra-cellular water and the ratio between them is controlled and maintained
within a certain range. Body fat is piled beneath the skin and between abdominal organs. Body fat is hydrolyzed to
make energy needed for normal physiological functions when energy supplies through food intake is not sufficient,
but excessive fat in the body itself is a kind of disease and causes lifestyle diseases.
Healthy people maintain the balance of body composition in a steady proportion but unhealthy people fail to keep
this balance. When the balance in body composition is broken, diseases like obesity, malnutrition, osteoporosis,
etc. can occur.
Obesity
Various methods can be used to assess obesity but the key factor in obesity assessment is the amount of fat
accumulated in the body.
In general, obesity is defined as the state of not only excessive weight compared with height (visible obesity) but
also excessive body fat compared with weight (invisible or visible obesity).
Strictly speaking obesity is the state that body fat occupies considerably high ratio to weight.
Necessity of Body Composition Analysis
Body Composition Analysis is a good indicator to find possible health problems. Body composition analysis
enables professionals to find obesity or an imbalance in body composition at early stages and helps subjects keep
their body healthy. The Competitor Series is a useful preventive diagnostic device.
Waist to Hip Ratio
Waist to hip ratio (W.H.R.) shows the distribution of fat stored in one’s abdomen and hips. It is simple but useful to
assess body fat distribution. Body fat is stored in two distinct ways. They are often called 'apple' and 'pear' type.
Apple type shows bigger girth of waist than hip and pear type has bigger girth of hip than waist. If body fat in the
abdomen increases more, the risk to cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, etc. becomes higher.
Segmental Analysis
This device analyzes lean body mass of five body parts; trunk, right arm, left arm, right leg, and left leg. This
function can be used as an assessment tool to evaluate the result of exercise or rehabilitation treatment. Segmental
analysis is available only in the full body model (D1000-3) and is illustrated in the printout shown in Figure 2.2.

2.4 Scale Base
The scale base consists of:
• Four plate electrodes that measures weight. The plate electrodes measure impedance which is how fast
electrical ohms travel through the body. This scale base is only available in the D1000-3 (Full Body) and
D1000-1 (Foot to Foot) models.

3.0 Installation and Setup
3.1 Unpacking
The Competitor Series comes with the following components depending on which model is purchased.
D1000-3 Full Body scale base and digital display
D1000-2 Hand to Hand held display
D1000-1 Foot to Foot
Optional Column
Immediately after unpacking, visually inspect the Competitor Series scale to ensure all components are included
and undamaged. The shipping carton should contain the scale base, hand held display, and this manual. If any parts
were damaged in shipment, notify Rice Lake Weighing Systems and the shipper immediately and keep the original
packaging material for inspection by the carrier’s representative. It is also helpful in the claim process to take
pictures of the condition of the packaging and damage.
If the Competitor Series scale must be returned for modification or repair, it must be properly packed with
sufficient packing materials. Whenever possible, use the original carton when shipping the scale back.
Important
Damage caused by improper packaging is not covered by the warranty.
