Sensor and monitor system
First Claim
1. A monitor system to monitor a characteristic of a user, the system comprising:
- a sensor to produce a sensor signal on a continuous basis, the sensor signal being indicative of a glucose characteristic measured in the user when placed in subcutaneous tissue, the sensor having a sensor port;
a recorder that includes a recorder housing,a battery being contained within the recorder housing,a recorder port defined to interface with the sensor port to receive the produced signals from the sensor,a recorder clock defined within the recorder housing to assign a time to the signals from the sensor,a recorder processor that includes a recorder memory coupled to the recorder port to store the produced signals from the sensor,a data port defined to interface with a dock receiver,a dock remotely located from the sensor and the recorder, the dock includes the dock receiver to physically couple the recorder to the dock via the data port,a dock processor coupled to the dock receiver, and a data processor defined to analyze the signals from the sensor that were stored in the recorder, the data processor includes;
a data processor memory to store data from the recorder and a data processor clock,wherein the data processor is programmed to assign the time and date of the signals from the sensor by comparing the time and date on the data processor clock with the time assigned to the signals from the sensor by the recorder clock,wherein the sensor port and the data port are combined into one multifunction port.

Abstract
A monitor system is disclosed. The monitor system includes a sensor with a sensor port. The monitor system further includes a recorder with a recorder port within a recording housing. The recorder port interfaces with the sensor port to receive signals from the sensor port. A recorder clock is defined within the recorder housing, with a recorder processor to store signals from the sensor. The recorder includes a data port to interface with a dock receiver. The monitor system includes a dock remotely located from the sensor and the recorder. The dock receiver couples the recorder to the dock. The monitor system further includes a data processor to analyze the sensor signals from the recorder. The data processor includes memory and a clock. Further included with the data processor are program instructions to assign the time and date of the sensor signals.
