[5] Test Result Mealtime Tagging and
Feedback
If the Mealtime Tag Feature is Enabled: The BGStar Meter
allows you to add a tag to your test result. Tagging results allows
you to view averages before and after meals to see what effect
food has on your blood glucose levels.
After your result appears, a tag will flash on the display
suggesting a mealtime tag (Breakfast, Post Breakfast, Lunch,
Post Lunch, Dinner, Post Dinner, and Night). For example, if
you test at 12:30, the meter will flash the word "POST LUNCH."
If the tag is incorrect, you can change
it by pressing the DOWN ( ) or UP ( )
arrow buttons. Pressing the UP ( ) arrow
button would change the tag to Lunch,
pressing the DOWN ( ) arrow button
would change the tag to Dinner. Pressing
the CHECK ( ) button confirms the
mealtime tag and it stops flashing. Your
test result's mealtime tag is now stored in
the memory.
Example of
Mealtime Tag:
POST LUNCH
