Abstract: An electronic device may communicate wirelessly with another electronic device. The electronic device may include a first processor configured to control only wireless communications with the another device but not operations associated only with the electronic device, a second processor configured to control the operations associated only with the electronic device but not the wireless communications with the another device, and a memory device connected between the first and second processors. The first and second processors may each be configured to exchange information with the memory device separately and independently of the exchange of information by the other of the first and second processors with the memory device.

Abstract: An electronic device may remotely control a medical device. The electronic device may include a wireless communication circuit configured to wirelessly communicate with the medical device, and a processor that receives from the medical device via the wireless communication circuit screen data generated by the medical device for display on a display device thereof and to control a display device of the electronic device according to the received screen data to display on the electronic device display the screen data generated by the medical device, to emulate at least some of a plurality of user keys of the medical device with selected ones of a plurality of user buttons of the electronic device, and to control the display device of the electronic device to display a map that relates emulated ones of the plurality of user keys to selected ones of the user buttons.

Abstract: A method is provided for controlling change access to a display menu of an ambulatory liquid infusion pump. A programmed menu of the infusion pump may be displayed and a menu lock flag may be monitored. Changes to at least one active item of the programmed menu may be disabled if the menu lock flag is activated.

Abstract: An electronic device may selectively disable a bolus advice process according to which the electronic device recommends delivery of a bolus amount of a drug to a body of a user based on a plurality of factors including glucose concentration of the user. The electronic device may include a glucose measuring facility configured to measure glucose concentration of a body fluid sample, and a processor including a memory having instructions stored therein that comprise the bolus advice process. The memory may further have instructions stored therein that are executable by the processor to request a glucose concentration measurement by the glucose measurement facility prior to executing, or as part of, the bolus advice process, and to disable execution of the bolus advice process if a glucose concentration value resulting from the requested glucose concentration measurement is less than a threshold value.

Abstract: A test meter system includes a cartridge that houses a test strip tape, which includes a plurality of test elements, and the cartridge defines a meter opening. The cartridge further incorporates an indexing mechanism for indexing the test strip tape. A meter is configured to analyze body fluid via the test strip tape, and the meter includes a display for displaying test results as well as other information. At least a portion of the meter is received in the meter opening of the cartridge to provide a compact configuration. In one form, the test strip system has a generally cylindrical outer shape to provide a pleasing handheld shape.

Abstract: Electrical monitoring circuitry simultaneously and continuously tests a three-wire ground-type AC outlet for proper line voltage, polarity of the wiring and external ground resistance. The circuitry includes a single indicating lamp, preferably a light-emitting diode, which illuminates only when the proper conditions tested for exist at the outlet. For optimum convenience, the circuitry is incorporated in a male/female outlet adaptor which, in use, is plugged into the wall outlet to be tested, thereby to establish via the phase, neutral and ground prongs of the adaptor the necessary test connections of the circuitry to the wall outlet. The adaptor includes one or more jack receptacles internally connected to the adaptor ground prong for receiving static charges from external equipment and draining same to the building ground when the light-emitting diode illuminates.
