Turning off the Send option for
a Single Test Result
Your test result will
begin flashing to
indicate that it is
being sent to your
Medtronic device. It
will continue to
flash for at least 5
seconds (up to 60
seconds), until the
meter receives a message from the Medtronic device that
the result has been received. If your result does not fl ash,
check to be sure the Send option is turned on (see page 24).
The test result will also be automatically stored in the
meter memory.
Testing Your Blood
If you want to stop the transmission of a result (if it has
not been accepted by the Medtronic device in 5 seconds),
press
M . The transmission will be cancelled. Be aware
that the result cannot be resent later.
Turning off the Send option for a Single Test Result
If you do NOT want to send a blood test result to your
Medtronic device, you can turn off the Send option for a
single test. You may want to do this if you do not want
to create a wireless signal (for example, if you
have been
asked to turn off all electronic devices on an aircraft).
1. Insert a test strip into the
meter to turn the meter
on. Before you begin
your test, press and hold
the  or  key until “
” is
displayed. The
displayed
next to the date will
disappear, indicating that the
Send option is temporarily
turned off.
2. Test your blood as usual.
The result will not flash,
indicating that it is not
being sent.
3. When you turn the meter
on to perform another
test, the Send option will
again be on (the
will be
displayed).
Stopping a Result While it is Being Sent
If you have set your meter to use the special marker
options (see page 28), the markers must be selected
while the result is still being displayed, before
removing the strip or turning the meter off.
NOTES:
1. A result of “LO” or “HI” will not be sent to the
Medtronic device, even when the Send option is
on. Results of 10-19 mg/dL will be sent to the
Medtronic device; however the device will ignore
these results (they will not be displayed).
2. Important: Always check the display on your Medtronic
device to ensure that the glucose result shown agrees
with the meter display.
3. Do not attempt to insert a new test strip until the display
stops fl ashing. Doing so will cause the transmission to
be stopped.
