Welcome to the Commander FLEX
System
What is the Cardiocom Commander FLEX?
Commander FLEX is a home monitoring tool. It sends important
health information to your health care team. This allows your
doctor and other health care team members to take action before
your symptoms get worse. Your health care team can make
changes to your care plan to help you stay healthy.
How do you participate?
Your health care team has provided the Commander FLEX for
you to use at home. You should use the Commander FLEX each
day. You may use the Commander FLEX to measure your
weight, peak flow, oxygen saturation, blood pressure, and/or
blood glucose levels. You should do this as instructed by your
health care team. This data will be sent to your health care team
each day. The Commander FLEX uses its own cellular
connection or toll free numbers to send the data so there will be
no charge to you.
What are the benefits of using Commander FLEX?
Identifies symptoms early and allows your health care team to
take action
Keeps you “in touch” with your doctor and his or her team
Teaches you about your health condition
Keep this Manual near your
Commander FLEX for a quick reference.

Using Commander FLEX
Using Commander FLEX is Easy!
Each day you will simply take a Health Check. This may include:
Measuring your vital signs, like weight, blood pressure, oxygen
saturation, peak flow, temperature or blood glucose levels.
Answering a series of questions about your health status.
That’s it!
The Commander FLEX automatically sends your Health Check
data to your health care team. The transmission process usually
takes less than one minute to complete.
More About the Health Check
Your Health Check gathers vital sign data and asks a series of
health related questions. This health information is then sent to
your health care team. The Health Check may also contain
messages to teach you about your health condition.
Page 25
How to Start Your Health Check
1. Each day you will press the YES or NO button on the Commander
FLEX to turn it on. The following messages will be spoken and
appear in the display:
“Good Morning”
“Are you ready to start your Health Check?”
2. Press the YES button to begin your Health Check.
3. If you have any other peripheral devices attached to Commander
FLEX, you will be instructed to take your measurements. Follow
the on screen instructions and refer to the device instructions
found in this User Manual.

your current symptoms. Answer each question based on how you
are feeling.

3. If a weight is taken before a health check, the Commander FLEX
will skip the “Take your Weight” section of the health check.
4. This weight will be used in place of the “Take your Weight”
section of the health check.
5. If you have not taken a weight and start your health check, the
Commander FLEX will ask you if you would like to take a weight.
When using the Scale WE, ensure your feet are properly positioned on
the scale as follows:

Scale WE™ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What steps can I take if the Scale Wireless Edition™ doesn’t
appear to be taking my weight?
a) Make sure the scale is on the proper flat surface. If on carpeting
or an unstable surface, please make sure the Carpet Platform is
between the carpet and the scale. Check to make sure the feet of
the scale are nestled into the footholds of the Carpet Platform.
b) Ensure that minimally there is fifty (50) pounds distributed on the
scale surface, not to exceed four hundred (400) pounds.
c) Replace the scale batteries, if necessary.
d) Check to make sure the scale feet are free from debris or foreign
materials (such as clothing or towels).
How do I know if my weight is in pounds (lbs) or kilograms (kg)?
Upon taking a measurement, the scale does two things:
1. It speaks the unit of measurement.
2. Either “kg” or “lb” displays in the lower right corner of the
LCD screen when standing on the scale.

Measuring Blood Pressure
1. During the Health Check, Commander FLEX will prompt you to sit
down to measure your Blood Pressure and provide the following
instructions:
a. Place the Cuff on your upper arm over bare skin.
b. The Cuff should be an inch above the bend of your arm.
c. The tubing should run down the middle of the inside of your
arm.
d. Wrap the cuff tightly around your arm.
Make sure the
cuff is an inch
above the
bending point
of your arm
Wrap the
cuff tightly
around your
upper arm
Page 51
Measuring Blood Pressure…continued
a. Rest your arm and hand on a table or hard surface. Your
arm should be at heart level.
2. The Commander FLEX will prompt you to “Press YES to check
Blood Pressure”. Press the YES button on the Commander FLEX
when you have the Cuff properly attached to your arm and are
ready to check your Blood Pressure.
3. Commander FLEX will instruct you to “Please remain still and do
not talk” and indicate it is “Checking Blood Pressure”. Wait while
Commander FLEX measures your Blood Pressure. The cuff may
get very tight during the measurement. Do not be alarmed; this is
normal. NOTE: If you need to STOP the Blood Pressure
measurement, press ANY button on Commander FLEX.
4. When the Commander FLEX has completed your Blood Pressure
measurement, it will indicate it is “Determining Blood Pressure.”
You may now remove the Blood Pressure cuff from your arm.
5. The Commander FLEX will speak and display your Blood
Pressure and Heart Rate and automatically transmit your data to
your health care team.

Measuring Blood Pressurecontinued
6. If the Commander FLEX was not able to measure your Blood
Pressure, it will provide additional instructions. Follow these
instructions to recheck your Blood Pressure.
NOTE: If you need to take multiple Blood Pressure readings, let
your arm rest for at least 5 minutes between readings.
For Accurate Blood Pressure Readings
1. Take your Blood Pressure while you are relaxed. If necessary,
relax for a few minutes before starting the Health Check.
2. You should be in a seated position, with your legs uncrossed and
your feet flat on the floor.
3. Remain still and do not talk during the measurement process.
Excessive movement can make it difficult for Commander FLEX
to take your Blood Pressure.
4. Eating, drinking or smoking can change your Blood Pressure. Try
to avoid these activities for 30 minutes before measuring your
Blood Pressure.
5. Make sure to rest your arm between readings.
6. Blood Pressure varies in all people depending on activity, stress
level, food and drink intake and time of day.
7. The Blood Pressure Cuff size can affect your readings. If your
arm is bigger or smaller than the range printed on the Cuff, ask
your care provider for a new Cuff.
8. Do not allow other people to use Commander FLEX to measure
their Blood Pressure.

About the Blood Pressure Measurement Device
Blood Pressure measurements determined with this device are
equivalent to those obtained by a trained observer using the
stethoscope auscultatory method, within the limits prescribed by the
American National Standard, manual, electronic, or automated
sphygmomanometers.
The Blood Pressure Cuff will get tight around your arm in order to
measure your blood pressure. The device is designed to automatically
deflate.
WARNING: IF THE PRESSURE IS TOO PAINFUL OR THE
CUFF IS TOO TIGHT, PRESS ANY BUTTON ON THE DEVICE,
REMOVE THE CUFF FROM YOUR ARM, OR PULL THE CUFF
HOSE OUT OF THE COMMANDER FLEX.
Some people are more sensitive to pressure and may experience
physical effects, including bruising of the area where pressure is
applied. Consult your health care team if you bruise easily and have
concerns regarding routine monitoring of blood pressure.
WARNING: THE BLOOD PRESSURE DEVICE IS INTENDED
FOR USE BY ADULTS ONLY. CHILDREN SHOULD NOT USE
THIS DEVICE.
CAUTION: The effectiveness of this sphygmomanometer has
not been established in pregnant (including pre-eclamptic)
patients.

The REN is used to determine the number of devices that may be connected to a telephone line. Excessive RENs
on a telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to an incoming call. In most but not all areas,
the sum of RENs should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the number of devices that may be connected to a
line, as determined by the total RENs, contact the local telephone company. The REN for this product is part of
the product identifier that has the format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. The digits represented by ## are the REN without
a decimal point (e.g., 03 is a REN of 0.3).
If the Commander causes harm to the telephone network, the telephone company will notify you in advance that
temporary discontinuance of service may be required. But if advance notice isn't practical, the telephone company
will notify the customer as soon as possible. Also, you will be advised of your right to file a complaint with the FCC
