Recording
animal
traits
The
SmartScale
800
lets
you
record
values
against
animal
characteristics
for
a
specific
animal
tag
number
(electronic
or
visual)
without
needing
to
record
a
weight.
The
information
is
added
to
the
current
session
in
the
same
way
as
a
normal
record,
but
with
the
weight
set
to
zero.
The
traits
against
which
you
can
record
information
for
each
animal
are
defined
in
MyScale
Pro
and
copied
to
the
Scale.
When
you
start
a
new
trait
session
on
the
Scale
you
can
select
which
trait
table
to
base
the
session
on
which
then
becomes
permanently
associated
with
that
session.
This
defines
the
traits
you
can
enter
data
against
in
this
session.
Refer
to
the
MyScale
Pro
User
Manual
for
more
information.
To
store

by
the

table.

the
Scale's
cross

reference
table,
you

enter
one
now
