Reliability
The meter checks each test strip. If it finds a defective strip, it lets you
know before you apply blood.
Blood volume checking
The meter can tell when you have applied sufficient blood
(approximately 1.5 µL (1 microlitre = 1 thousandth of a millilitre)). It
waits until then before starting the test. If the test does not start, you
may apply more blood.
Alarm clock function
The meter can remind you to test your blood glucose. You can set an
acoustic signal to remind you at three different times.
Hypo indicator function
In order to look out for unusually low results you can set a hypo
indicator level (hypo threshold). If a result is below the level you have
set, a symbol in the display and an acoustic signal (provided it is set to
on) prompt you to check your result carefully to see if you are heading
towards a possible hypo (low blood glucose).
Downloading data to a computer
The meter has an infrared window. You can download results to a
computer running the appropriate software or to special analysis
systems.
