Abstract
Electronic modules for attachment to a drug delivery device include delivery status sensing means () for monitoring a delivery status of the device, a status indicator () with an indicator element controllable to indicate a delivery or module status, and a status indicator controller (), which generates an indicator control signal on behalf of the status indicator element, which in turn produces a status signal. The indicator control signal has an amplitude varying monotonically in time between a minimum value and a maximum value in a first interval of a base cycle, and between the maximum value and the minimum value in a second interval of the base cycle. In at least one of the first and the second interval, the mean value of the indicator control signal is below the average of the maximum and the minimum values of the indicator control signal to realize increased energy savings.
