    Why is a seca patient file shown as “not assigned” in the seca 115 PC software following import from a USB memory stick on Seca 515 Measuring Instruments?

      Michelle KennedySep 23, 2025
      If a seca patient file is shown as “not assigned” in the seca 115 PC software after import from a USB memory stick, it could be due to the USB PIN of the USB memory stick used for access to the seca patient database. Manually assign the current seca patient file to an attending physician in seca 115. To import other patient files, use the user PIN to access the seca patient database of the USB memory stick.
