The blood glucose meter has default settings for the colour range indicator which can be customized by the subjects and/or their healthcare professional. This colour range indicator will be presented to the subjects as a computer simulation to show subjects a range of typical blood glucose values and how this new feature would classify these results as being low (blue), in-range (green) or high (red).
