<p>A hand-held test meter 100 for use with an electrochemical-based analytical test strip in the determination of an analyte in a bodily fluid sample includes a housing, display 102, a micro-controller 112, a test strip simulation passive circuit block 114, and a strip port connector 106 configured to operationally receive a test strip. The simulation circuit is in electrical communication with the connector which is in electrical communication with the micro-controller. The simulation circuit block is configured to simulate insertion of an electrochemical-based analytical test strip into the connector and also to simulate application of a bodily fluid sample to a test strip inserted into the connector by presenting one or both of (i) an alternating current (AC) load; and (ii) a direct current (DC) load to the strip port connector. The device is used to test operation of the meter.</p> |
