how is calories and nutritional information calculated ?is there an app ?

Accepted Answer

Hi ,

Thanks for reaching out. Yes, there is an app with ~2000 pre-programed food codes. You can also program and store up to 99 custom food codes on your scale for those times when you want to weigh an ingredient, but can’t find it in the built-in food code list. We recommend using these custom entries for items you consume frequently; so you don’t forget them, write them down on the back cover of your code booklet, or save them in the app.
 
Before you program a custom entry, you’ll need the nutritional information found on the food's Nutrition Facts label.
 
To create a new code:
When in NORMAL operating mode, press and hold the CUSTOM key until the scale beeps twice, indicating that the scale is now in the PROGRAM mode. The display will be blank except for a "U" and a blinking "00" in the Food Code display area.
Enter the two digit (01-99) custom food code number that you want to use and press the CUSTOM key. (If you need to clear your entry, press CLEAR at any time.)
After you enter the code number, the scale will beep and the 9 nutrient values and WEIGHT (per serving) will appear for programming. Starting with Calories, enter the 9 displayed nutrients in grams exactly as they are listed on the Nutrition Facts label. Press CUSTOM to store each entry and move to the next one.
NOTE: The active nutrient is indicated by the blinking digits. Always enter the amounts in grams or milligrams, as shown on the label. For decimals, you will need to either round to the next whole number, or double the portion size for the whole food item to create whole numbers when entering the nutrition information.
After pressing CUSTOM to store the final nutrient value (Protein), the four digits next to Weight will begin blinking, asking for the weight of an individual serving size. Enter the weight of the serving size in grams, as shown on the label.
After pressing CUSTOM to store the Weight per serving size, the scale will calculate nutritional information per 100 grams and store these values in its memory. The scale will then beep twice and return to the NORMAL operation mode. Your custom entry is now ready for use.
To use a custom code you’ve created:
Make sure the scale is in the NORMAL operating mode and ready to accept a food code entry (the food code digits will be blinking).
Press CUSTOM. The Food Code will now show a steady "U" and a blinking "00."
Enter your code (two digits, from 01 to 99).
Proceed like you would when using a standard food code entry.
Thanks,
