@urbanracer we use mg/dl here so the settings can't be changed?by locked you mean preset sorry but I didn't get that, Any idea about getting it from USA?

From the wording I'm assuming that it cannot be changed @Maryam_Alam .

Let's ask @TorqPenderloin about the USA. He's in Texas and he might be around later.
