Need Help w/ my Clear Blue Monitor. No instructions?

Has anyone used the Clear Blue Fertility Monitor? I don't know how th reset it...I am on cd6, and I think I needed to test today, and I have no instructions. I tried testing, but the monitor didn'ta sk for the test strip, and didn't read it either. I am sending dh to get new batterieis too, but need to know how to set it for reset it from when my frind used it...

I tried to set it at 5 days and the m stays on... not sure
My friend just send me all this stuff, the monitor, the test strips, Ovulation test strips, pg tests, and progeterone cream....and her prometrium-goodness! ;-) I think I am getting all set ttc this month. Lets' hope it all works.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Kerry,
Here is the web site to the monitor... it says it has instructions on how to use it. I didn't read them but wondered if they will help you. I do not have any experience with this item. I hope this helps

Kerry:

Hold the "M" button down it will reset and flash, continue to hold it until you get to the correct day. Make sure you are testing at the same time each day. It is a 2 hour window, before and after. I always did first thing in the morning. I usually did not get a test day until day 9 or so.

I hope this helps you.

Thank you ladies... I tried their website, but didn't find all the answers I was looking for about resetting it. I also tried holding down the M button, but I should be cd7, but when I was resetting it, it goes from day 1-5, then resets to 1. I did this yesterday so I put it on day 5, now its on day 6, but should be day 7, one day behind. I tried calling the 800 #, but they are closed for the weekend. I think I figured it out, but I am a day off.
I will call the 800# again tomorrow to have them send me the instructions.
Just in case, I will also use the opks...
Lisa, thank you for letting me know when it would ask me to test... I was wondering about that too. How ca it know my fertitlity levels if it doesn't ask me to test...hmm? I guess it's just so smart. LOL

Thanks again,

Kerry

I just got mine on Friday(CD2). You can only set it when you are day 1-5. If you are on day 6 they say you have to wait until next month.
Supposedly for the first cycle you start testing on Day 6, which for me will be Tuesday.

Hi, I think I found the instructions you want on another forum. Hope this works!
--------
Unwrap one test stick and while the monitor is still off, insert the test stick into the test stick slot.

Simultaneously, press and hold down the "on" button on the side of the monitor, while you press and hold down on the "m" button.

Continue to press down on both buttons until you see in the window a whole bunch of symbols -- this will take a few minutes (first thing to come up will be a symbol telling you to take stick out... ignore it).

When you see the screen flash up with all the symbols, release both buttons and take out the test stick.

You'll know you've done it right because the screen now should have two flashing lines where the cycle day indicator is (upper right corner).


If the two lines are flashing.... When you next get your period, on Cycle day 1 (the first day you see full red blood flow on a pad, not the day you start spotting) press the "m" button until the flashing lines turn into a "1" --- release the "m" button.

If you miss setting the monitor on your CD 1, don't worry. You have up until CD 5 to set the "m" button. Just hold the button down until the day number on screen comes up to the corresponding day number of your cycle. (This will only work up until day 5. If you go beyond day 5, you'll have to reset the monitor and start over.)

Hi! I also found out about the monitor that if you borrowed it from someone, it may not ask for a strip on day 6, it will follow the last cycle it "learned" and I was told there was no way around that. Once it learns your cycle, next month or so than it will ask appropiately. Good luck to you!!!!
