1. A method for transmitting data between a first communication device associated with an analyte sensor and a primary communication device and a secondary communication device configured to provide user access to analyte values and/or information derived from analyte values, comprising:
- establishing a communication channel between a secondary communication device and a first communication device during a transmission time window of a sensor session;
determining whether a primary communication device has previously been in communication with the first communication device during the sensor session; and
rejecting requests for data or commands sent by the secondary communication device to the first communication device if the primary communication device has not been in communication with the first device during the sensor session;
wherein the first communication device comprises a sensor electronics module, the sensor electronics module configured to electronically couple to an analyte sensor and to generate an analyte data stream using the analyte sensor, and wherein the sensor session is defined as a period of time the analyte sensor is in use.

Abstract
Systems and methods for processing, transmitting and displaying data received from an analyte sensor, such as a glucose sensor, are provided. The data can be displayed on a hand-held display device having a display such as a key fob device including a user interface, such as an LCD and one or more buttons that allows a user to view data, and a physical connector, such as USB port.

4. A method of transmitting data between a first communication device associated with an analyte sensor and a primary communication device and a secondary communication device, each of the primary communication device and the secondary communication device configured to provide user access to analyte values and/or information derived from analyte values, comprising:
- determining whether a first communication channel has been established between a first communication device and a primary communication device during a time window; and
establishing a second communication channel between the first communication device and a secondary communication device during the time window only if the first communication channel was established during the time window;
wherein the determination of whether the first communication channel has been established between the first communication device and the primary communication device during the time window is performed by the first communication device, and wherein the second communication channel between the first communication device and the secondary communication device is established during the time window only if it was determined that the first communication channel between the first communication device and the primary communication device was established during the time window. - View Dependent Claims (5, 6)
