Glucose Repeat Rules in Telcor

Telcor users: If you look under Device Types and Repeats, do you have any rules set up for Interface Repeat Processing? If so, what % is displayed? 10%, 15%? Other? Do you have anything entered in the Hold For (min) and Repeat Timeframe (min) fields?

Thanks for your time,
Cindy

My reasoning is I do not want to have the instrument and supplies in multiple areas and have to monitor multiple temp/humidity, patient/QC logs and supplies (exp dating, ect). Plus I just do not like having all that in patient rooms where "thing...
