1. A method for transmitting data between a first communication device associated with an analyte sensor and one or more second communication devices configured to provide user access to analyte values and/or information derived from analyte values, comprising:
- establishing a communication channel only with a primary device of a one or more second communication devices during a first time period within a communication window; and
establishing a communication channel with one or more secondary devices of the one or more second communication devices only during a second time period different from the first time period.
