Abstract

Systems, devices, and methods are disclosed for wireless communication of analyte data. In embodiments, a method of using a diabetes management partner interface to configure an analyte sensor system for wireless communication with a plurality of partner devices is provided. The method includes the analyte sensor system receiving authorization to provide one of the partner devices with access to a set of configuration parameters via the diabetes management partner interface. The set of configuration parameters is stored in a memory of the analyte sensor system. The method also includes, responsive to input received from the one partner device via the diabetes management partner interface, the analyte sensor system setting or causing a modification to the set of configuration parameters, according to a system requirement of the one partner device.
