Error detection and rejection for a diagnostic testing system
First Claim
1. A method for minimizing the impact of potential errors that may occur when a device receives a first code comprising a plurality of bits arranged in a physical arrangement and being associated with a diagnostic test strip, the method comprising:
- determining a probability of each bit to cause a read error; and
constructing a logical arrangement of the bits different than the physical arrangement based on the probability, wherein the logical arrangement comprises the bits arranged such that the impact of potential read errors is minimized.

Abstract
A system for measuring a property of a sample is provided. The system comprises a diagnostic measuring device having a memory and a diagnostic test strip for collecting the sample. The strip has embedded thereon a pattern representative of at least first data and second data, the first data being data representing at least one of parameters related to measuring the property, codes usable for calibration of the diagnostic measuring device, or parameters indicating proper connection between the measuring device and the test strip and the second data usable for detecting and rejecting potential errors affecting the proper measurement of the property.
