Running Control Solution
4. Pick up the monitor with test strip inserted
and touch the test strip to the control solu-
tion drop.
NOTE:
The on-screen Control Symbol flashes on
and off repeatedly until sufficient control solution
has been added to the test strip. (Beeper sounds if enabled.)
5. A glucose quality control test result is available on-screen in 5
seconds. The display does a countdown from 5 to 1.
6. Compare the result on the display with the range printed
on the test strip vial. If the result falls within the range, your
monitor and test strips are working correctly.
7. The result is automatically stored into memory.
8. If test result is above 600 mg/dL, the screen displays HI; test
result cannot be stored.
If test result is below 20 mg/dL, the screen displays LO; test
result cannot be stored.
NOTE:
Results that are marked as control solution will not flash
because they are not sent to your pump.
