1. DESCRIPTION OF DEVICE 1.1 Congratulations! By purchasing the seca 264 length measuring rod you have acquired an extremely accurate and robust device. For more than 170 years, seca has devoted its experience to health care and, as the market leader in many countries, is constantly setting new standards with its innovative weighing and measurement developments.
1.2 Intended use The seca 264 length measuring rod is mainly used in hospitals, doctors' surgeries and inpatient care facilities, in accordance with national regulations. The length measuring rod is used to determine a baby's size. The seca 360° wireless network allows the measured results to be transmitted wirelessly to a seca wireless printer or a PC equipped with the seca analytics 105 software and the PC equipped with the seca 360° Wireless USB adapter 456.

4.2 Assembling the device The heel stop is mounted on the first column element in the factory. Perform the remaining assembly with the assistance of another person. Due to the large overall height, we recommend placing the components on the floor and not uprighting the device until it is fully assembled. Proceed as follows.
Install second column element
To connect the column elements, proceed as follows: 1. Screw a threaded rod hand-tight into the elongated nut of the first column element. 2. Slide an column element over the threaded rod onto the first column element. ATTENTION! Damage to device due to assembly errors
If the upright connector and cover cap are mixed up, the device cannot be assembled as intended. − When installing the second column element, ensure that you use the upright connectors (see “Scope of supply” on page 49). 3. Position the upright connector on the second column element so that the threaded rod protrudes from the hole of the upright connector. 4. Screw an elongated nut onto the threaded rod. 5. Tighten the elongated nut.

Installing the head slide
To position the head slide on the upright, proceed as follows: 1. Tilt the head slide slightly towards the front. ATTENTION! Damage to device due to incorrect handling
Incorrect handling can damage the claw guide of the head slide. − Do not position the head slide on the column element either vertically or tilted towards the back. − Do not apply any excessive force during the installation. 2. Carefully position the tilted head slide on the column element. 3. Straighten the head slide so that it stands vertically on the column element. 4. Keep the brake button pressed and carefully push the head slide onto the column element.
Install the third column element
To connect the column elements, proceed as follows: 1. Screw a threaded rod hand-tight into the elongated nut of the second column element. 2. Push the column element over the threaded rod onto the upright connector of the second column Element. 3. Position the end cap on the second column element so that the threaded rod protrudes from the hole of the end cap. 4. Place the plain washer on the free end of the threaded rod. 5. Place the nut on the free end of the threaded rod. 6. Tighten the nut. 7. Place the decorative cap on the nut.

Installing the push-in scale
ATTENTION! Incorrect measurements due to installation errors
If the push-in scale is installed incorrectly the head slide cannot determine any usable readings. − Align the push-in scale so that the printing remains visible when the scale is pushed into the groove. − Align the push-in scale so that the area which shows the product number forms the bottom end. − Ensure that the push-in scale latches into position under the end cap. ♦ Push the push-on scale into the groove in the side of the column elements until the scale latches into position under the end cap.

4.3 Mounting the device on the wall Choose an adequately strong, load-bearing wall to mount the device. Standard rawl plugs are supplied for installation on solid brick walls. We recommend use of appropriate special rawl plugs for other types of walls. Due to the special design, the installation height of the wall brackets can be freely selected. For optimum device stability, we recommended choosing the spacing between the drillholes roughly as shown in the drawing on the left. To achieve exact measurement results, the floor where the device is installed must be flat and stable. Soft floorings, e. g. wooden planks, give under the weight of the patient and distort the measured result.
Installing the wall brackets ø 10mm
To install the wall brackets, proceed as follows: 1. Mark the drillholes for the wall brackets perpendicular to each other. 2. Drill the holes using a drill bit ∅ 10 mm. 3. Insert the rawl plugs in the drill holes.
Before you get started … • 53
4. Remove the slot bolts from the wall brackets. 5. Mount the wall brackets using the screws (M6x60). 6. Use a spirit level to align the wall brackets perpendicularly with each other. 7. Tighten the screws of the wall brackets.
Installing the slot bolts
To install the slot bolts, proceed as follows: 1. Insert the slot bolts into the groove of the column elements. 2. Position the slot bolts in the groove: – The distance between the slot bolts must correspond to the spacing between the wall brackets. – The heel stop must be on the floor when the device is positioned in the wall brackets. 3. Use an open-ended spanner (size 13) to tighten the slot bolts in the groove.

Positioning the device in the wall brackets
To position the device in the wall brackets, proceed as follows: 1. Position the device with the slot bolts in the wall brackets. 2. Use a spirit level to perpendicularly align the device. 3. Tighten the grub screws of the wall brackets. 4. Ensure that the heel stop is on the floor. If not, readjust the slot bolts.
Installing the foot mat
To install the foot mat, proceed as follows: 1. Lift up the heel stop on one side. 2. Position the foot mat under the heel stop so that the anti-slip mat is located exactly under the hole of the heel stop. 3. Release the heel stop. The anti-slip mat sits in the hole of the heel stop.
4. Lift up the heel stop on the other side. 5. Swing the foot mat under the heel stop so that the anti-slip mat is located exactly under the hole of the heel stop. 6. Release the heel stop. The anti-slip mat sits in the hole of the heel stop. The foot mat is secured against slipping.

4.4 Connecting the power supply The head slide is supplied with power from batteries. The batter holder supplied already contains 4 Mignon batteries, type AA, 1.5 volt. To connect the power supply for the head slide, proceed as follows: 1. Remove the cover of the battery compartment. 2. Remove the connection cable from the battery compartment. 3. Connect the battery holder to the connection cable. 4. Insert the battery holder into the battery compartment. ATTENTION! Damage to device and malfunction due to clamped or pinched cable
− Lay the battery cable before closing the battery compartment so that it cannot get clamped between the cover and the battery compartment. 5. Slide the cover onto the battery compartment until it audibly latches into position.
4.5 Calibrate head slide Before you can measure height using the device for the first time, you have to calibrate it. You do so by “teaching” the device a reference measurement.
Automated calibration
You can perform automated calibration using the calibration rod supplied. 1. Press the Start key
of the head slide.
“----” appears in the display.
