Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems, devices and methods for multicasting live content. A multicast server transmits live content data by way of a multicast transmission to gateway devices. A gateway device is configured for: receiving the live content data by way of the multicast transmission; establishing a secured communication session between the gateway device and an associated player device using an intermediary server trusted by the given gateway device and the associated player device, the secured communication session for secure real-time transmission from the given gateway device to the associated player device; and transmitting the live content data to the associated player device by way of a unicast transmission using the secured communication session.

Abstract: A method and apparatus implements patient data downloading for multiple different meter types, such as multiple different blood glucose meters. A plurality of serial ports is provided, each arranged for connection to a respective meter of the multiple different meter types. Information is displayed and user selections are identified. Responsive to user entry identifying a particular meter type, a connection port/cable number for the meter connection is displayed for viewing by the user. Predefined instructions for the particular meter type are displayed. A data collection computer system is provided as an integral unit including a unitary housing containing a processor device, a printer, and a display touch screen. When a meter connection is identified, information is displayed, patient data is downloaded from the meter and is printed in a selected format together with selected reports generated from the downloaded patient data.
