Said: I will be honest, I did not fully understand the letter they sent out. We have both the XS Pro and the Plus without our facilities and we also use RALs. Is the driver an update to the docking station or to the meter? I would appreciate ...

Driver Availability (through RALS) for Refreshed CoaguChek XS Plus Meter

How are others dealing with this?
Thanks!
