7. SECA 360^ WIRELESS NETWORK
7.1 Introduction
This device is equipped with a wireless module. The wireless module allows measured results to be transmitted wirelessly for analysis and documentation. Data can be transmitted to the following equipment devices:
- seca wireless printer
- PC with seca USB wireless module
seca wireless groups

The seca 360^ wireless network operates with wireless groups. A wireless group is a virtual group of transmitters and receivers. If you wish to operate several transmitters and receivers of the same type, up to 3 wireless groups (0, 1, 2) can be set up with this device.
The set-up of several wireless groups ensures the reliable transmission of measured values with the correct address when using more than one examination room each with similar equipment.
The maximum distance between transmitters and receivers is approx. 10 metres. This range may be reduced under certain local conditions, e.g. thickness and type of wall partitions.
The following combination of devices is possible per wireless group:
- 1 set of baby scales
- 1 set of personal scales
- 1 length measuring device
- 1 seca wireless printer
- 1 PC with seca USB wireless module
Channels The devices communicate with each other within each wireless group via three channels (C1, C2, C3). This ensures reliable, troublefree data transmission.

When you set up a wireless group with the scales, the device will suggest three channels guaranteeing optimum data transmission. We recommend accepting the channel numbers suggested.
You can also select the channel numbers (0 - 99) manually, for example if you want to set up more than one wireless group.
The channels must be sufficiently far apart to ensure troublefree data transmission. We recommend a spacing of at least 30. Each channel number may only be used for one channel.
Example of configuration; channel numbers when setting up 3 wireless groups within one surgery:
- Wireless group 0: C1 = _, C2 = 30, C3 = 60
- Wireless group 1: C1=10, C2=40, C3=70
- Wireless group 2: C1=20, C2=50, C3=80
Detection of equipment devices
If you wish to set up a wireless group with the scales, they will search for other active devices from the seca 360^ wireless system. The devices detected are shown as modules in the display on the scales (e.g. MO 3). The meaning of the numbers is as follows:
1: Personal scales
- 2: Length measuring device
3: Wireless printer
- 4: PC with seca USB wireless module
7: Baby scales
- 5, 6 and 8-12: Reserved for system expansion

10.1 Information about maintenance and recalibration
We recommend having maintenance performed prior to recalibration of the scales.
ATTENTION!
Incorrect measurement due to improper maintenance
- Make sure that maintenance and repair are only carried out by an authorised service partner.
- You can find your local service partner at www.seca.com or just send an e-mail to service@seca.com.
Ensure that recalibration is carried out by authorised persons in accordance with the national legal requirements. The year in which initial calibration was performed can be found behind the CE mark on the rating plate above the number of the notified body 0109 (Hesse Weights & Measures Office).
Recalibration is required in all cases if one or more calibration seals have been damaged or the content of the calibration counter does not match the number on the valid calibration counter sticker.
10.2 Check content of calibration counter
These seca scales have been calibrated. Calibration may only be performed by authorised bodies. To ensure this, the scales are equipped with a calibration counter which registers every change in data relevant to calibration.
If you wish to check that the scales are properly calibrated, proceed as follows:




- Switch the scales off if necessary.
- Hold down any key and start up the scales.
The current content of the calibration counter will flash in the display for a few seconds.
- Compare the output content of the calibration counter with the figure on the calibration counter sticker.
The two figures must match for calibration to be valid. If the sticker and calibration counter do not match, recalibration is necessary. Contact your service partner or the seca customer service department. Should recalibration be necessary, the seca calibration counter stickers shown above will be replaced by the adjacent recalibration sticker to identify the calibration counter reading. This sticker will be secured with an additional seal by a person authorised to perform calibration. The recalibration sticker is available from the seca customer service department under the number 14-05-01-886.
