1.4  The main features at a glance

Test cassette instead of test strips

The test cassette contains a continuous tape on 

which there are 50 test areas. When a test is to be 

performed a test area is automatically advanced to 

the tip of the cassette.

Easy testing

For testing, you do not need to press a single button. 

You open the tip cover, apply blood to the test area, 

read the result and close the tip cover. 

Docked finger pricker

You can obtain blood with the 

fi

nger pricker still 

docked onto the meter. Or you can undock the 

fi

nger 

pricker and then use it to obtain blood.

Finger pricker with lancet supply

A drum containing 6 sterile lancets is placed in the 

fi

nger pricker. Pushing the lever on the 

fi

nger pricker 

rotates the drum to the next lancet. This means that 

you can obtain blood with a new and sterile lancet 

6 times before you have to replace the drum.

No coding

Each test cassette contains an RFID (

meter when you insert a test cassette and informs 

the meter about the speci

c properties of the test 

areas in this test cassette.
