Abstract
Provided are methods and apparatus for receiving sensor data from an analyte sensor of a sensor monitoring system, processing the received sensor data with time corresponding calibration data, outputting the processed sensor data, detecting one or more adverse conditions associated with the sensor monitoring system, disabling the output of the sensor data during the adverse condition time period, determining that the one or more detected adverse conditions is no longer present in the sensor monitoring system, retrieving the sensor data during the adverse condition time period, processing the retrieved sensor data during the adverse condition time period, and outputting the processed retrieved sensor data.

1-22. (canceled)
A glucose monitoring system, comprising:
- (1) an on body unit configured to be positioned on a user's body, the on body unit comprising:
- a glucose sensor, a portion of which is configured to be positioned under skin of the user, wherein the glucose sensor is configured to sample a biological fluid of the user and provide glucose related sensor data;
- and
- a data processing and transmitter unit coupled with the glucose sensor, wherein the data processing and transmitter unit is configured to:
- receive the glucose related sensor data from the glucose sensor;
- process the glucose related sensor data to provide processed sensor data;
- store, in memory of the data processing and transmitter unit during a time period associated with a failure mode condition, the glucose related sensor data, the processed sensor data, or both;
- and
- transmit the processed sensor data over a Bluetooth wireless communication link;
- and
- (2) a receiver unit, comprising:
- a radio frequency receiver and an antenna configured to receive the processed sensor data transmitted by the data processing and transmitter unit over the Bluetooth wireless communication link;
- a display configured to display a graphical representation of the processed sensor data;
- and
- a processor coupled with memory of the receiver unit, wherein instructions stored in the memory of the receiver unit, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to:
- detect the presence of the data processing and transmitter unit when the data processing and transmitter unit is within a range of the receiver unit;
- establish the Bluetooth wireless communication link with the data processing and transmitter unit;
- display a gap in the graphical representation of the processed sensor data, the gap correlating with the time period associated with the failure mode condition;
- and
- display a graphical representation of the processed sensor data correlating with the time period associated with the failure mode condition after the failure mode condition has been corrected,
- wherein the failure mode condition is detected by the data processing and transmitter unit.
