Step-by-step instructions to check your blood sugar levels using the Fora TNG Glucometer connected to the aTouchAway App.
Your Fora TNG Glucometer should have already been paired to your aTouchAway tablet. These instructions will show you how to respond to the tablet when you receive instructions to check your blood sugar.
You may have the option to manually enter your results or to have the aTouchAway App read the results directly from your device. We recommend reading directly from the device.
Once you've selected Read from device, touch the Done button.
You will see this screen on your tablet. You will need to check your blood sugar before tapping the Ok button on this screen.
To Check your Blood Sugar
Take a brand-new test strip out of the test strip container and place it in the glucometer device with the Fora logo facing upwards.
Poke your finger using a lancet and the lancet "pen". Squeeze your finger slightly to express a blood droplet.
Touch the tip of the test strip to the blood droplet. It will collect as much blood as necessary and then will beep. The glucometer will process the reading.
Tap the Ok button on your tablet. Click the silver button on the glucometer once. You should see the glucometer screen flash "OFF" followed by a blinking or solid blue light near the silver button.
You should see the device connect to the tablet.
Your blood sugar reading should then appear on your screen.
If the reading is not accurate, you can start the process again by touching Here on the tablet screen.
If your glucometer does not connect to the tablet, you can choose to manually enter your reading on the initial screen. Touch Here above the Done button, to return to the main screen.
If the reading looks correct, touch Done to complete the reading.
Touch Ok to try the process again or select Manual entry and enter your results as they appear on your glucometer.
