Auto-Coding Convenience, Complete Starter Accessories (Lancing Device, Lancets, Control Solution, Case), 7-Second Testing Speed, Small 0.5 µL Sample Size, 250-Test Memory, and 5-Year Factory Warranty
Starting a daily blood glucose testing routine requires an all-in-one monitor system that provides accurate results right out of the box without complicated setup steps or missing testing supplies. Manual-coding meters can introduce user errors if code chips aren't calibrated correctly. The Arkray® Glucocard Vital™ Blood Glucose Meter Full Starter Kit provides a complete, auto-coding solution designed specifically for immediate, hassle-free diabetes management.
Engineered with auto-coding technology, the Glucocard Vital™ requires no manual code chips or calibration—simply insert a test strip and apply a tiny 0.5 µL blood micro-sample. Within just 7 seconds, the oversized LCD screen displays high-contrast, plasma-referenced glucose values. The meter holds up to 250 time- and date-stamped readings in internal memory, complete with 14- and 30-day average calculations and data-download capability for medical tracking. Supplied as a complete Full Kit containing the meter, 10 test strips, control solution, lancing device, 10 lancets, and a carrying case, it delivers long-term dependability backed by a 5-year warranty.
