Specifically, varying by device, the supported functionality is outlined by the following commands: * info - get info about device (e.g., software version, serial number) The library already provides a common interface for all the meters. Having used this library for my Freestyle Libre, I already had my graph scripts ready to get data in this particular format.

However, when I wanted to export readings from my Ascensia (formerly Bayer) ContourUSB meter I realized that no one had implemented the required module for glucometerutils. Glucometerutils already supports multiple manufacturers device. The most famous library of that kind is glucometerutils by implemented in Python. This fact led to the development of many libraries meant to interface and provide data export functionality for a number of devices, regardless of the underlying operating system. However, down to the connection interface level, all those devices use either USB or Serial connection.

Most of the models provide a proprietary exporting tool that is AFAIK only for Windows. I have used numerous glucose meters the last 20 years, but only lately I found interest in exporting statistics about my blood glucose levels.
