Northerner, i was just wondering whether we could get one for Alex's nano! Is it the thingy that is ?19.99?
Also i think your levels are changing on saturdays and wednesdays as these are half day closing arent they! He he, well they used to be at the bakers anyway!:DBev

I got mine free for my aviva, but it works with the nano too. It uses an infrared sensor that plugs into a serial port - not sure if they have a usb version, but I think most pc's have serial ports still. Ring their careline and ask for the Accu chek Compass software. I don't know whether it works on macs or with vista - I'm running a pc with XP.
 
just ordered mine for the exceed so thank you for the link angel huni :D
 
Mike - Good news - my son has an Optium Xceed and last month we sent for the software which arrived promptly, free of charge. It is good and we can do all sorts of fancy charts etc etc. Send for it and enjoy!!!!!!

Here's my trend graph since last August. The yellow section is my range (4-7), and the red line hypos. Seems I had quite a few hypos in December! A lot of the higher readings are ones taken before/after runs, when I'd expect them to be above 7 mmol/l

I had to do some messing about copying my screen to the clipboard, editing in a graphics package and then uploading to photobucket so I could include it here! There may be an easier way, but I'm not sure what it is!🙂
 
When i look on the acu chek site it says they are 19.99? How come some people are getting them free?:confused:Bev

When I got my free nano there was leaflet about the 'Smartpix' software which appears to cost money, so I was worried that it wouldn't work with the software I have, but it does. I'd send you the CD, but it's not much use without the infrared device. I'd call them and ask - perhaps they don't like advertising that they give stuff away on the site, but will do if you speak to someone. They may have discontinued the Compass software, though. Other companies obviously have a more transparent policy with their free software.
 
I have been useing a accu-Chek Aviva for the last month and called them last week about there software and got sent the Accu chek Compass software for free it looks like you have to pay for the smart pix.
