Code chip
The code chip provides the meter with important
information which it needs to perform the coag-
ulation test. The chip contains information about
the test method, the lot number and the expiry
date. The meter is ready to use once the code
chip has been inserted.
If you use a new test strip lot and have not
inserted the corresponding code chip yet, you
must do so at latest after inserting the test strip.
Otherwise you cannot perform a test. The meter
displays the number of the code chip belonging
to the new test strip lot.
Once the code chip information has been read
by the meter, it will be stored for future use. You
may remove the code chip at this point. Up to 5
code chip data sets can be stored in the meter
simultaneously.
Protect the code chip from moisture and equip-
ment which produces magnetic fields, e.g. loud-
speakers, induction stoves or other electronic
devices.
