You can set the receiver to alert you with these displays using the proles setting
(see Chapter 6, Section 6.3, Alert Prole Details, “All Other Alerts”). After the
6-hour, 2-hour, and 30-minute reminders, you will continue to receive sensor
glucose readings. You can clear these screens by pressing SELECT on the
receiver. You must remove your sensor after the nal sensor expiration screen
(00:00:00) appears.
Once your sensor session has ended, sensor glucose
readings will no longer be shown on the receiver. The
trend graphs will indicate that the sensor session has
ended by displaying a red stoplight symbol at the top
as shown in the screen to the right.
You will need to remove your sensor and insert a new
sensor.
