[Diabetes-talk] Solus V2 web site.

Tue Apr 23 21:38:00 UTC 2013

I just got mine, solus, and its nearly exactly as the solo V2 except for the
time being accessible... or thus far that I know, but well worth my $35 out
of pocket!
I have not had much issue with not enough blood... solo V2 offered this
notice, as prodigy did not when I was using it and only have had 1 with the
solus in only a couple days.. so seems to be doing well thus far.
My A1C seemed to be more in trend with the solo V2 then when using the
prodigy, so will have to wait a  year or so to really feel its still on
board, but would assume being it appears to be much the same meter as the
solo V2, except for time on recall.

Mike, after I changed my default pdf program, I could download the pdf. I
just printed it and scanned it. Can't say it helped much though. It was a
table and nothing quite lined up right. I did figure some things out from it
though. 
I was thinking of trying it because my old Braille 'n speak is showing signs
of giving up the ghost. When that happens, my FreeStyle Lite is out of luck.
But it's hard to give up a meter that only requires .33 microliters of blood
as compared with .7 for the Solus. Some days I have enogh trouble getting
the smallest amount of blood out of my fingers. Hmmm. But at least it does
claim to read the date and time in the memory. Anyone actually have this
meter yet?
Thanks so much.
Veronica

Veronica:

When you click on the specification sheet, a PDF document downloads and
appears in a separate window. It takes a minute or so. Unfortunately, the
document is a scanned image. I didn't try JAWS's OCR on it.

Hi Mike and everyone!
The way I found the site was by typing Solus V2 in the google search box. It
took me to a page which said, a fully accessible talking meter, etc. There
were links to specifications, the manual and other things I can't remember a
day later. <grin> I did find a link where you can fill out a form to see if
you qualify for a free meter though. It didn't say what the qualifications
were, but I figured hey, what's to lose by filling it out. That link worked.
<grin>
So I'll snoop around again and if I am still stumped, I'll contact your
contact, Mike. Thanks a bunch.

The web site seems perfectly accessible (the bioSense site) but I didn't see
a reference to the Solus there.

Try writing to mailto:Chris Gwaltney (chris at biosensemd.com)
<mailto:Chris%20Gwaltney%20(chris at biosensemd.com)>  who is my bioSense
contact. Tell me I gave you his contact information and shoot me a copy of
his reply privately, please.

Hi there!

I was just wondering if I'm the only one having trouble with the links on
the BioSense web site. I wanted to read the specification sheet for the
Solus but couldn't make it work. I got further using Firefox than I did with
I E, but never quite got there. Anyone know if there's something I'm
missing? Thanks.
