Acoustic mode 8 Acoustic mode The procedure for turning the acoustic mode on is described in Setting tones (see page 49). When the acoustic mode is turned on, the meter guides you through the blood glucose test using beep tones and announces the test result as a series of beep tones. The meter also beeps when the batteries are almost empty, the test cassette is empty or an error message is displayed.
8 Acoustic mode There are two types of beep tones, differing in pitch. Warnings have a higher pitch (Tone 2, represented herein as ) than the other beep tones (Tone 1, represented herein as ). The following table shows which tone sounds for which event.
Acoustic mode 8 Test result announcement after a test In the acoustic mode, when a test result is displayed following a blood glucose test, the meter also announces it as a series of beeps. The test result is not announced as an entity, but is broken down into individual digits. Examples: The test result 7.6 mmol/L is announced as 0 – 7 – decimal point – 6. Each digit is represented by the corresponding number of beep tones, for example, 4 beep tones for the number 4 ( ).
8 Acoustic mode mmol/L meters First the tens are announced, then the units followed by the decimal point and finally the tenths. There is a short pause between each group of beeps. The tens are always announced, even when the test result is below 10. The tens in this case are represented by 1 long beep tone, signifying zero. The decimal point is announced by 1 very short beep tone ( ). 13.
Acoustic mode If you directly retrieve stored test results using the button immediately afterwards the test result: test result test result test result. 8 , you will first hear the power-on beep and If XX.X is displayed as the last (most recent) test result, the last test did not deliver a test result (see page 66). In this case, the beep tones issued are identical to those for an error message. Flags are not announced acoustically (for example, Before meal).
9 Checking the meter Checking the meter You can check whether the meter is delivering correct test results. To perform this control test, a glucose control solution is applied to the test area instead of blood. At the end of the test, the meter automatically checks whether the control result obtained with control solution is correct and informs you of the control result.
Checking the meter 9 Preparing for a control test For a control test, you need: • The meter with inserted test cassette • An unopened applicator with Accu-Chek Mobile control solution • A clean, dry paper towel. The solution in the applicators is intended for single use only. Read the control solution package insert. Performing a control test A control test in its main steps is the same as a normal test except that you apply control solution to the test area instead of blood.
9 Checking the meter Applying control solution You can hold the meter in your hand or lay it down while you apply control solution to the test area. You should be able to see the test area when applying control solution. 4 Apply the control solution to the centre of the test area at the tip of the cassette using the tip of the brush. 5 Take the brush away from the test area as soon as the beep tone sounds and Test in progress appears on the screen. 6 Press .
