General information seca 1 General Information 374|376|378|703|704|264|274|284|285|954|957|959|963 These service instructions are intended for specialist staff responsible for maintenance and repair of the devices. These persons must be familiar with all the relevant electro-technical regulations and must adhere to them any time.
General information seca Design and Function of the Scale Part [374|376|378|703|704|264|274|284|285|954|957|959|963] 1.2.1 Design [374|376|378|703|704|284|285] The scale consists of the following main parts: the frame with up to four load cells, a display unit, a key panel and a power supply unit.

Maintenance seca Maintenance [374|376|378|703|704|264|274|284|285|954|957|959|963] The following section provides an overview of all maintenance jobs which can be carried out. To call up the Service Menu, start the scale while pressing another key at the same time. This causes the content of the calibration counter (i.e. the number of adjustment operations carried out so far) to be displayed for 24 seconds (flashing).

This adjustment must also be carried out whenever the load cell is replaced. seca scales with modular NEC-G2 electronics are fitted with a software- controlled adjustment device that is controlled using the existing operating elements. When developing the adjustment device, special attention was paid to the following requirements: 05.10.12/RLEU/ARI/MRE...

Maintenance seca calibration counter (i.e. the number of adjustment procedures carried out so far) are then displayed for 18 seconds (flashing). While the calibration count is displayed, a key must be kept pressed (for more than 1.5 seconds) to switch the scale to adjustment mode.
Maintenance seca Now increase the value by the first 10 g (by briefly pressing the tare/hold key). After this has been repeated x times, the value 200.0 (rounded!) appears on the display although the internal measured value still is 199.95 kg (not rounded!).

Maintenance seca Again briefly press the tare/hold key (for incremented by 1 g. less than 1.5 seconds). Repeat this step until the measured The display indicates the test weight weight matches the test weight (format: (format: xx.000 kg). xx.000 kg).
Maintenance seca Setting the Gravity Factor [374|703|284|954]: The gravity factor can only be set on non-approved models [374|703|284] Before the gravity factor can be set, the scale must first be switched to adjustment mode (see section 0 or 2.1.4). While the calibration count is displayed, a key must be kept pressed (for more than 1.5 seconds) to switch the scale to adjustment mode.
Maintenance seca 2.4.1 Example for Gravity Factor Setting [374|703|284|954] The current gravity factor shown on the display is 98135 kg mm/s². The target gravity factor is 98150 mm/s². In this example, you must switch the scale to incrementing mode to set the gravity factor.

The most effective way to identify a defect of the load cell is using the diagnosis function of seca serva 2.0; if this is not available you can alternatively use a multimeter (see 4.2.1). A multimeter measurement, however, is less conclusive so that it should always be second choice.

This software can be updated using the Windows-based "seca wireless updater" program. Removing or replacing the radio modules is generally not required.
Updating the Radio Module Software Two cases can be distinguished: 1) The customer has a seca 360° wireless USB adapter [456] and has carried out set-up for his seca devices and this wireless USB adapter. In this case you should connect the customer's wireless USB adapter to your service PC and update the entire wireless group from your PC.
Software seca mode (the so-called download kernel). The “Refresh” button refreshes the display. Set-up Process This function corresponds to the set-up process carried out for a device. First of all, select the current wireless group on the left in the main window.
Software seca Updating the Radio Module Software The lower part of the main window is intended for the actual updating of the radio modules. The radio modules in the active wireless group are shown in a list together with a symbol.
The revision contained on the card is given on the sticker on the SD card. For the seca wireless printer 465, revision code 465d or more recent is required (or 465dc, 465dj, 465dr for the Chinese, Japanese or Russian version).
Set-up is not possible in updating mode – it would no longer be possible to identify the corresponding device. In rare cases, updating will fail entirely. The relevant radio module must then be reaced. The radio module can be returned to the seca headquarters for repair. 05.10.12/RLEU/ARI/MRE 33/38...
Replacement instructions seca 703 Safety measures Before starting any work on the scale, first disconnect the power supply (mains and batteries). II Safety instructions regarding the prevention of electrostatic charging (ESD protective measures) ESD protective measures (electrostatic discharge) must be taken whenever work is performed on electronic components.
Replacement instructions seca 703 1 Baseframe Please be sure to observe the sequence listed below when removing/fitting the parts! 1.1 Replacing the load cell Place the scale on the side and detach the load cell cable connector.
