6.1 Beep tones at power-on
When Acoustic Mode is set to on, you hear a long beep ( — ) when you
turn on the meter.
This is irrespective of which button you use to turn the meter on:
" the Test button in order to perform a test (see Chapter 4.3.1)
" the S button in order to change settings (see Chapter 3)
" the M button in order to retrieve results from memory (see Chap-
ter 5)
" the M and S button in order to send results (see Chapter 5.4)
If you press the Test button or M button to turn the meter on, you first
hear the long power-on beep followed by 6 further beeps spaced as
1 – 2 – 3 ( – – – – – – ).
6.2 Beep tones during testing
Following the power-on beep and the 1 – 2 – 3 sequence of beeps, you
will hear the following while you test:
" a single beep when the meter is ready to test so you can let the test
strip draw up blood or control solution,
" a single beep when the test strip has drawn up sufficient blood or
control solution and the test is starting,
" several beeps each time the meter displays an error message (see
Chapter 6.5).
6.3 Announcement of the result following a test
In Acoustic Mode, whenever your 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 dig-
its.
Examples:
" The result 7.6 mmol/L is announced as 0 – 7 – decimal point – 6.
" The result 138 mg/dL is announced as 1 – 3 – 8.
