BG Check Reminder
1. From the Reminders Menu, select BG Check. Press OK to activate Edit mode to turn
this reminder on or off. Press OK to confirm and exit Edit mode.
2. Scroll down to highlight the After Bolus field. Press OK to select the field and activate
Edit mode. Use the Up/Down arrows to enter how long after a Normal Bolus you wish the
pump to sound (or vibrate) to remind you to check your BG. You can select 1, 2, 3 or 4
hours after you give a bolus.
When this feature is turned on, the pump will display the BG reminder screen immediately
following a Normal Bolus. You can change the Reminder time or opt not to be reminded by
entering 0. For example, if you have given a bolus in the evening you may not wish the
Reminder to sound while you are sleeping. If the Reminder is not acknowledged, battery
life will be reduced and the Replace Battery Alarm will appear sooner than expected.
3. When finished setting reminders, scroll to Main Menu to display the Main Menu.
When you enter a time, the pump will sound a reminder after any Normal Bolus is
programmed, including the Normal portion of a Combo Bolus. If you program an Extended
Bolus only, the reminder will not sound.
Delivery Speed - Bolus
On rare occasions, usually with very large boluses, users may experience a slight stinging
sensation with rapid bolus delivery. If this is a concern, you can set the bolus delivery
speed to slow to accommodate your needs. If you use the slow setting, your pump will
pause approximately 4 seconds in between delivery of each unit of
insulin programmed.
Multiple Basal Programs
This feature allows 4 different Basal programs to show on your Basal
Menu screen. Users find this feature beneficial if their activity level is
different during the week than on weekends. Switching work shifts
at work is another reason to use multiple basal programs. Some use a
different basal program during menstruation.
