Quality Control Tests
Quality control testing is done to verify that the blood glucose meter and
test strips are working correctly, and to ensure the accuracy of the test
results. Please conduct quality control tests in the following situations:
When you suspect that the meter or test strips are not working
properly.
When you suspect that your test results are inaccurate, or if they are
inconsistent with the way you feel.
When you suspect the meter is damaged.
Insert the code chip into glucose meter.
Insert the test strip all of the way into the test strip port, and the
meter will turn on automatically. If the audio is on, you will hear a
“beep” sound, and all of the icons on the display will turn on at the
same time.
After all of the icons appear, the code chip number will display
automatically. Please compare this number with the number on the
test strip packaging. If they do not match, make sure that you are
using the correct code chip, and verify by repeating steps 1 through
3.
The screen will now display the date, time, and code chip number
with the apply blood icon flashing. Test strip icon and flashing blood
drop icon shows that the test strip has been inserted correctly.
Tip:
If the test strip is not inserted correctly, the meter will not
power on.
Push the “M” button to mark the test a quality control test, and the
control solution icon will show on the display.
