The Prodigy Pocket®stores the 120 most recent blood glucose test
results with date and time in its memory. It also provides you with 7, 14
and 28–day averages of your blood glucose test results. You can review
the individual or average test results by entering the memory mode.
STEP 1: Enter the Memory Mode
While the meter is turned off, press the “M” button twice.
The 7-day average will appear, indicating that you are in the memory
mode. If you continue to press the “M” button, the 14 and 28–day
averages will appear in order.
You can then review the last
120 individual test results in the
memory. When using the meter
forthersttime,“- - -” appears,
showing that there are no test
results in the memory.
See Figure 55.
STEP 2: Recalling Average
Test Results
The 7–day average is calculated
from the blood glucose results
obtained during the last 7 days.
It also indicates how many blood
glucose tests have been performed
within this period, e.g., 21 (21 tests
in the last 7 days). See Figure 56.
Using the Meter Memory
Figure 55
Figure 56
The 14–day average is calculated
from the blood glucose results
obtained during the last 14 days.
See Figure 57.
It, too, indicates how many blood
glucose tests have been performed, e.g., 41 (41 tests in the last 14
days). The 28–day average shows the same information.
STEP 3: Recalling Individual Test Results
After the 28–day average, the most recent test result with date and
time will be shown. Press the “M” button once and the next most
recent test result will appear.
Each time you press and release the
“M” button, the meter will recall up
to your last 120 test results in order.
When the memory is full, the oldest
result is dropped as the newest is
added. After reaching the last set of
results, the meter will display the
7–day average again. See Figures
57 and 59.
STEP 4: Exit the Memory Mode
Press and hold the “M” button for
three (3) seconds to turn off the meter.
Important: If you do not press any button for one (1) minute,
the meter will show “OFF” and turn off automatically.
