Check the Measuring Unit for Your INR Test Result, continued
Now that the Date and Time are set on your meter, you will be prompted to set the INR display
on your meter.
Setting Your Meter to Display INR
1. The Unit of Measurement should begin flashing.
Unless your doctor has instructed you
to measure in a unit other than INR (i.e., %Quick or Seconds), it is very important
your meter displays “INR” for its unit of measurement.
• If INR is flashing, press the
Set
button to accept.
• If you see “%Q” or “Sec” flashing, press
M
until you reach “INR” and press the
Set
button to accept. This will ensure your test results display in the proper unit
of measurement for correct reporting.
Always ensure “INR” is displayed when your test result appears, unless your doctor has
specifically instructed you to measure in a unit other than INR (i.e., %Quick or Seconds).
2. The Beeper setting should begin flashing, which should read “On.” Press the
Set
button to
accept. If “Off” is flashing, press the
M
button to change to “On,” and then press the
Set
button to accept.
3. Turn off the meter by pressing the power button, which looks like a circle with an “I”
inside:
You have now ensured these important meter settings are correct!
