[QUOTE="smidge, post: 660905, member: 29301"] OK, a couple of things: 1. This does record data continuously every 15 minutes. To view it, you need to download and install the software. You then use the option to export the data into a .csv file. You then open that - it is a text file, but it is better manipulated in Excel. You get the full pattern of what your BG has been doing over the period that the .csv file covers. This is the whole point of the system! 2. You get gaps in data if you don't scan at least once in 8 hours. The scanning seems to cause the previous set of data to save or be committed to memory in some way. Until you scan, I think it is transient data. 3. I think (but I'm not sure) you might get gaps in data while it is attached to the PC. I think that's what happened to me yesterday evening. I'll try again tonight and let you know. 4. I think you need to be careful to unplug the device carefully from the PC - it is a USB device and depending on what OS you're using it needs to be quiesced by choosing the 'remove device safely' in your OS. So that was more than a couple LOL. Smidge [/QUOTE]
