A body fluid component measuring system which is capable of continuous measurement and reduces downtime includes a sensor unit which is positionable indwelling in the skin of a subject and which measures a predetermined body fluid component included in the body fluid of the subject; and a transmission unit which is detachably attached to the sensor unit and which calculates blood glucose level based on measurement data measured by the sensor unit, and transmits the calculated blood glucose level to a display unit. Identification information for establishing communication between the transmission unit and the display unit is stored in the sensor unit, and the transmission unit, upon activation, uses the identification information read out by the sensor unit to establish communication with the display unit.

Body fluid component measuring system

A device for receiving a transmitting unit that is detachably attachable to a sensor unit configured to be placed on a subject to acquire a biosignal of the subject and that acquires bio-information from the biosignal acquired in the sensor unit to transmit the biosignal to an external device. This device has first and second ports on which transmitting units can be placed, and communication sections each provided in a respective one of the ports to carry out communication with the transmitting units mounted on the respective ports. When the transmitting unit is newly mounted on one port, the device acquires transmission data including communication identification information for the transmission from the newly mounted transmitting unit by the communication section of this port and transmits the acquired transmission data to another transmitting unit already mounted on the other port by using the communication section provided in the other port.
