SECTION I 

 

MODEL FG1235 

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION and SPECIFICATIONS

 

 

The low power microprocessor circuitry allows the 
FG1235 to derive it’s power from the system's DC 
battery supply. This eliminates the need for an 
external battery charger or the danger of an A.C. 
power supply.

 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION - 

The 

FG1235 is specifically designed as a precision scale 
system retrofit for the Barton Medical line bariatric 
beds. The FG1235 Scale System employs the latest 
in microprocessor and load cell technology to 
provide accurate and repeatable weight data. Four 
(4) identically matched transducers are strategically 
placed to ensure an accurate representation of the 
patient's weight regardless of weight distribution. 
The Patient's weight is displayed on a 16 character 
dot matrix liquid crystal display with L.E.D. 
backlighting. Patient weight may be viewed in both 
POUNDS and KILOGRAMS with the push of a 
button with a displayed resolution of  0.1 #/Kg (100 
grams). The FG1235 also features a WEIGHT 
CHANGE mode which makes it convenient to 
monitor the patient's weight relative to ZERO in 
order to observe variations in weight. A FREEZE 
feature is provided to give the added convenience of 
being able to adjust the patient's comfort by adding 
or removing a pillow, blanket, or adjusting the chair 
without effecting the patient's displayed weight.

 

1.0 

 
The patient’s weight is displayed on a 16 character 
dot matrix L.C.D. With the push of a button, weight 
data may be viewed in either POUNDS or 
KILOGRAMS with a displayed resolution of 0.1 Lb 
or .1Kg. 

1.1 INTENDED
