Abstract: Described herein are systems and methods (including system and method) to allow users of analyte monitors to continue to perform analyte measurement tests by using a secondary battery when the main battery is exhausted. By using applicants' technique, the monitor can be used for twice as long as compared to a monitor that only relies on a single battery as the only power supply. Moreover, applicants have devised systems and methods to indicate to the user which of the primary and secondary batteries should be replaced without disrupting the utilization of the monitor.

Abstract: A hand-held test meter for use with an analytical test strip in the determination of an analyte (such as glucose) in a bodily fluid sample (for example, a whole blood sample) includes a housing, a buttons electrical circuit block, at least one user operable button in operable communication with the buttons electrical circuit block; and a first-time-on (FTO) electrical circuit block. The FTO electrical circuit block is disposed within the housing and includes an activation node. In addition, the FTO electrical circuit block is configured to place the hand-held test meter into a deep power conservation mode upon the direct application of an electrical signal to the activation node by an external device (e.g., a manufacturing tester) and to terminate the deep power conservation mode and place the hand-held test meter into a normal operating mode upon receiving a predetermined user triggered signal from the at least one user operable button.
