What
A scale is a peripheral device that connects to a Nobi light via Bluetooth. Once paired, it helps monitor resident health more closely by capturing weight data and linking it to the right resident.
For a detailed description of other peripherals, go to our Types of peripherals page.
Why
Pairing the scale with the right light ensures that every measurement is accurately recorded and linked to the correct room and resident. This helps caregivers get reliable data and improves care. A peripheral, in this case the scale, must first be paired via the Nobi light in order to function properly.
Pair via the Nobi mobile app
Pairing the scale is done through the Nobi mobile app. Pairing is easy. Just follow the wizard to complete the connection. The scale should be physically near the light during the process.
