The ACCU CHEK Aviva E 9 is a blood glucose meter that uses a disposable test strip. The test strip contains a small amount of blood, which is then mixed with a reagent. The reagent reacts with the blood to produce a small electrical current. This current is then measured by the meter and displayed as a reading.

The E 9 error code indicates that there is a problem with the test strip. This could be due to a number of factors, such as a dirty test strip, a damaged test strip, or a strip that has been inserted incorrectly. If the problem persists, it is recommended that you contact the manufacturer for further assistance.
