[Diabetes-Talk] Reading the number on the sensor device

Tue Mar 19 03:13:48 UTC 2019

If Seeing AI works, then that's great. I don't like using AIRA or Be My Eyes
unless I have too. I tried using Seeing AI to get the transmitter code, and
it didn't read the entire code, so I ended up using Be My Eyes. But if
Seeing AI works for you for the sensor codes, that's what I will plan to do.

It would be if you point them to the right spot. The code is on one side of
the package all by itself and on the other side of the package there are a
whole bunch of numbers. So you really have to make sure you get the right
one. I am quite happy doing mine with Seeing AI. The transmitter code was
easier on the G5 box as well as the non-Medicare G6 one. You can, in theory
take a photo with the camera and get the codes entered that way but I've
never made that work. I did on the G5, but on the G6, it's just such a small
area we have to find and the camera times out really really fast so I just
gave up on that one and choose, enter manually. The sensor codes are always
four digits.

I've used both AIRA and Be My Eyes to read the transmitter code with no
problems, so I imagine having an agent read the sensor code would be as
easy.

why not try be my eyes app and sign in as a user?  A volunteer may be able
to read the number for you if they can see it.

the decks calm unit? I have more trouble doing this than anything else. I
have used Seeing AI, and I have also used KNFB Reader, but I?m having
trouble getting the correct results.
