Understanding Control Solution Test Results
The label on your test strip bottle shows the acceptable ranges for the Control Solutions. The result
you get should be inside the acceptable range for the appropriate control solution level. Make sure
you compare the result to the correct level of control.

If you don’t set “CS” mode, control solution values will be included in the memory and
averages. Setting the meter in control solution mode will prevent the control solution
reading from being added to your memory and averages.
