1. A system for determining a characteristic of a test sample, comprising:

  • a sensor meter responsive to a test sensor, the sensor meter determining a characteristic of the test sample received on the test sensor; and

    a calibration element including electrical contacts readable by the sensor meter, the electrical contacts being configurable in one of a plurality of patterns that communicates, to the sensor meter, information relating to the determination of the characteristic of the test sample, the plurality of patterns including two or more of the electrical contacts being electrically isolated from any other electrical contacts, wherein each of the isolated electrical contacts is associated with a unique value and the sensor meter determines at least partially the information from the electrical contacts by determining a combination of the unique values associated with the isolated electrical contacts.
