3.2.5 Setting the beep tone or Acoustic Mode
This setting enables you to turn the beep tone on or off and to activate
Acoustic Mode.
When the beep tone is turned on, you will hear a beep at the following
times:
O
when the meter is ready to test and you can let the test strip draw
up blood or control solution,
O
when the test strip has drawn up sufficient blood or control solution
and testing has started,
O
when the result is displayed,
O
when the meter displays an error message,
O
when the meter turned off automatically following a test and the test
strip is still in the test strip guide.
When Acoustic Mode is turned on, the meter guides you through the test
using the beep tones mentioned above; it also announces the result as a
series of beeps (see Chapter 7 "Acoustic Mode").
The meter also beeps at times other than when a test is in progress: for
example, when you are entering certain settings in a set-up or are navi-
gating within the memory. The times at which the meter beeps are
described at the relevant points in these Instructions for use.
