Using a Wireless Unit

1 Perform a glucose test.

• If the meter is in the tote and connected to the

wireless unit, data transfer begins automatically

at the completion of each test.

• If you are testing with the meter outside the

tote, plug the meter into the wireless unit

using the serial cable. The meter turns on

automatically and data transfer begins.

■ NOTE: It is not recommended to lift the antenna during data transfer.

A steady green ACTIVITY LED indicates communication with OneTouch

MeterLink™.

2 Following data transfer:

• To continue testing with the meter connected to the wireless unit, turn off the

meter and turn it on again.

• To continue testing with the meter outside the tote, remove the serial cable from

the meter and press Cont if the meter is still on.

■ NOTE: When you turn on the meter while it is connected to the wireless unit or

when you plug the meter into the wireless unit using the serial cable, you

have approximately 15 seconds from the time the main menu appears until

you need to select an option before the meter automatically attempts a data

transfer.

If the meter has turned off, you can verify that the transfer was successful by turning on

the meter. If an error occurred during the transfer, the following message appears after the

status screen: Last Data Transfer mm/dd/yy hh:mm Failed. Additionally, the status of the last

upload appears at the status screen.

After approximately 60 seconds or when communication has finished, the wireless unit

will go into a power-saving mode.
