I keep telling everyone, don't let them talk you into the order code. The
prodigy voice is fully, and I do mean totally accessible. The meter holds
450 blood sugars. You can read them all if you wish. The AutoCode only reads
back 10 readings. The rest can only be accessed Buy a cited individual. The
auto code, can only be set correctly by a cited individual as well. As for
the prodigy voice, everything on it is accessible by a totally blind person.
No matter which ever button you press, the meter will talk you through it.
As for the auto code, if you press the wrong button, there's no hope.
However, and other difference with the auto code is that the screen it's for
those who use large print. So, I guess it is accessible for a partially
sighted person. So if you are a totally blind meter user as I am, don't let
them talk you into the auto code. Get the prodigy voice!!
