Accepted Answer

The SECA 769 scale does not have a built-in height measurer. Height must be entered manually by the user via the BMI function for the scale to calculate the body mass index.

Here’s how to proceed:

Question 2

The SECA 834 scale displays 8888 after changing the batteries - is this normal?

Accepted Answer

The display showing "8888" (or "88888") after a battery change is perfectly normal. This is a display test that is part of the automatic initialization sequence of your SECA 834 scale.

Normal startup sequence:

The "SECA" logo is displayed first
Then "8888" or "88888" (display test)
Then "0.0.0.0"
The scale automatically returns to zero and is ready to operate

No problem! Your scale is functioning normally after the battery change. Just wait for this sequence to finish automatically (a few seconds) and the device will be operational.
