CTRL is displayed and will be
stored in memory along with the
result so it is flagged as a control
test result in memory.
Be sure to press the SET button
before running a control. If you
don’t, then the meter will think

minimum, and maximum values). If they are not
flagged, they will be included in statistical calculations.
