Acoustic mode 6
6.3 Announcement of the result after a test
In the acoustic mode, whenever the meter displays a
result following a blood glucose test, it also announces
the result as a series of beeps. The result is not treated
as an entity, but is broken down into individual digits.
example:
The result 7.6 mmol/l is announced as 0 – 7 –
decimal point – 6.
each digit is represented by the corresponding number
of beeps, e.g. 4 beeps for the number 4 ( ).
Zero is represented by a long beep (
).
Results which are lower than 0.6 mmol/l and are
displayed as
are announced acoustically as
0 – 0 – decimal point – 0.
Results which are higher than 33.3 mmol/l and are
displayed as are announced acoustically as 9 – 9
– decimal point – 9.
The result is announced three times in succession.
each announcement is preceded by 2 short beeps
( ). Altogether, therefore, you hear: result
result result.
Symbols, such as or , which are displayed toge-
ther with the result are not announced acoustically.
If you turn off the meter using the on/off button
while the result is being announced acoustically, the
announcement will be interrupted and 2 short beeps
will sound four times in succession ( ).
