Tanita Data Format

The tanita measurement datafiles can be found in the TANITA\GRAPHV1\DATA directory with the name of DATA1.CSV...DATA4.CSV where each file corresponds to a slot (button) on the scale. Individual profile data can be found for users in TANITA\GRAPHV1\SYSTEM directory with the name of PROF1.CSV...PROF4.CSV.

Each measurement file is comma separated, where a given line indicates a measurement for a user in that slot. Instead of headers for the csv, each row has header information embeded in it, where column i is the header for the data field in column i+1. Each even column (0, 2, 3 ...) is a header, and headers are always two characters in length. The mappings for the Tanita BC-603 FS scale are below (note: this scale seems to be the same as the BC-601, and the datafiles even incorrectly note the model number as the BC-601).
