<p>#CMT# #/CMT# The test strip device has a flexible carrier strip (34) that is fast-forwarded using a strip drive. The multiple analytical test fields (32) are applied to the carrier strip for exposure to bodily fluids in associated strip sections (42). Each strip section has multiple position marks (44) for different functional positions. The marks are scanned by a strip sensor (20) and individually identified by a measurement parameter. #CMT# : #/CMT# An independent claim is included for a test strip unit for handling test strip device. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# Test strip device. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# The test strip device has a flexible carrier strip that is fast-forwarded using a strip drive, where the multiple analytical test fields are applied to the carrier strip for exposure to bodily fluids in associated strip sections, and hence ensures improved and user friendly test strip device. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawing shows a schematic view of a strip section of a test strip in two different function positions. 20 : Strip sensor 32 : Analytical test fields 34 : Flexible carrier strip 42 : Strip sections 44 : Position marks.</p>
