IMPORTANT: Before you can select option 2 or 3, a complete set of personal information on at least one person must be stored in the computer's memory. If option 2 or 3 is selected before you enter the necessary information, an error message is displayed. To create a file of personal information, press '''1'''.
===Personal Information===
Selecting option 1 from the WEIGHT CONTROL & NUTRITION selection list causes the PERSONAL INFORMATION selection list to appear.
[[File:WC&N - Personal Information.png|center|500px]]
This list lets you review or change personal information, or add or delete a participant. To set up a file for a participant, press '''2''' for Add a Participant.
''Note:'' Once you choose the option to add a participant, you should proceed to fill out all of the required information. (Your personal information is completed once you reach the display that calculates your daily calorie requirement.) If you press '''SHIFT W''' (BEGIN) before completing the personal information, the information on that participant is lost. Note that '''SHIFT Z''' (BACK) is not operative when you are setting up a file of personal information for a new participant.
As discussed previously, the Weight Control & Nutrition module can work with information for up to five people at a time. If you wish to add a participant when the computer already has information on five people, you may erase the information on one of the people from the computer's memory (see "Delete a Participant"), and then add the new participant. Or, you may keep a separate file of the extra participants on a tape or diskette and work with their information in a different session with the module.
