First Claim
1. A method for validating a reference data value, comprising:
- (a) receiving a reference value inputted into a first computing device using a user interface of the first computing device;
(b) storing the inputted reference data value in memory of the first computing device;
(c) transmitting, using the first computing device, a first data packet indicating the reference data value;
(d) receiving, using a second computing device, the first data packet;
(e) processing, using the second computing device, the first data packet to determine the reference data value;
(f) transmitting, using the second computing device, a second data packet indicating the reference data value;
(g) receiving, using the first computing device, the second data packet;
(h) processing, using the first computing device, the second data packet to determine the reference data value;
(i) validating the reference data value, wherein validating comprises determining whether the reference data value determined from processing the second data packet matches the reference data value stored in memory of the first computing device; and
(j) calibrating sensor data using the reference data value if the reference data value is valid.

Abstract
System and method for communicating glucose concentration information between devices of a continuous glucose monitoring system is provided. The continuous glucose monitoring system can include a sensor module generates a glucose concentration measurement data and transmits the data to one or more further devices of the continuous glucose monitoring system. The further devices can include a receiver unit and one or more secondary display devices. The receiver unit can be configured to be a stand-alone device of or physically connect to a secondary display device. A user interface can also be provided that provides enhanced functionality for using the continuous glucose monitoring system.
