Systems and methods employ a test sensor that includes an identification feature, such as a resistive element or other detectable circuit element, which allows a measurement device to interrogate the test sensor and to determine whether the correct test sensor type is being used to collect a fluid sample. For example, some embodiments employ test sensors that a measurement device can identify according to a response received from the test sensors when the measurement device applies an electrical signal to the test sensors. By facilitating identification of a test sensor, embodiments help ensure that the desired test type, calibration codes, and/or assay sequence are applied to the fluid sample collected by the test sensor. |
