Blood Glucose Test Reminders (Optional)
The meter can be set up to remind you to retest your blood glucose after a high blood glucose test result,
after a low blood glucose test result, or after a meal.
An after high blood glucose test reminder example:
• The meter is set up with a high bG threshold level of 240 mg/dL and with a reminder time of 60 minutes.
• You have a blood glucose test result higher than 240 mg/dL, perhaps 270 mg/dL.
• In 60 minutes, the meter reminds you to perform another blood glucose test.
The after meal bG test reminder is set up with a carb value and occurs when the carb value exceeds the
snack size. Any of these blood glucose test reminders can be turned on or o individually, as needed. For
more information, see Chapter 5, Changing Meter Settings.
Alarm Clock Reminders
• The meter has alarm clock reminders which can be used as a helpful way to remind you when to test
throughout the day.
• In addition to “bG Test” and “Injection,” you can set reminders for “Other” for any other daily reminder.
• You can set up to 8 reminders per day.
• For more information, see Chapter 5, Changing Meter Settings.
Date Reminders
• The meter can be set up to remind you of upcoming appointments or dates, such as a “Dr. Visit” or a “Lab
Test.”
• For more information, see Chapter 5, Changing Meter Settings.
