The Accu-Chek Active system now offers functions to mark and evaluate the pre- and post-meal blood glucose values.The new Accu-Chek Active system provides the option to flag thses values of particular importance and thus supports a precise evaluation of the metabolic situation.

Furthermore, the averages of pre- and post-meal values for the last 7, 14 or 30 days can be retrieved from the meter's memory and displayed directly on its screen.

Easy-to-use data analysis function: Accu-Chek Active has a 350-value memory for saving results together with date and times as well as an infrared interface for communicating with a PC running a suitable analysis program.

Fast five second test time: With a testing time of about 5 seconds, your Accu-Chek Active is one of the fastest blood glucose monitors available.

Ergonomic design: Your new Accu-Chek Active is designed for ergonomic functionality with good looks.

Small blood sample: Your Accu-Chek Active requires only a small drop of blood, 1 to 2?L if you apply the blood to the middle of the test pad. If at any time the drop you apply is too small, the monitor will detect this and issue a warning.

Easy to operate: No need to press buttons when you carry out the test.

Out-of-meter dosing: After activating the test cycle you may remove the test strip to apply blood (eg. from an earlobe) and then insert the strip again in the monitor.

Accurate* results: Application of blood to the test strip starts a colour reaction. The final colour is accurately read(measured photo metrically) by the meter's optical system and the result is converted to a blood glucose value.

Auto Coding: Each pack of test strips contains a coding chip that holds all of the important informtion that is needed to evaluate the strips from that particular pack. Whenever you open a new pack of strips, simply insert the new coding chip in the coding chip slot.

Easy to read display: Numbers and messages are clearly presented on a spacious display screen. Easily understood symbols give you additional information and instructions.

Virtually pain-free testing in 5 seconds.
