Eversense E3 CGM User Guide
Q: What is the dierence between a notification
and alert?
A: A Notification is a non-critical, low priority message
(e.g., calibration reminder).
An Alert is an important message that needs your
attention and may require you to respond/take action.
Q: What are predictive alerts?
A: Predictive Alerts notify you in advance of an event
that is likely to occur if current trends continue.
Predictive Alerts use High and Low Glucose Alert
levels you set to determine when the Predictive Alerts
occur. You can set the alerts to notify you at 10, 20,
or 30 minutes in advance of when the CGM System
anticipates you reaching the alert levels you set.
Your smart transmitter will vibrate, and your app
will sound an alert and display a message on the
MY GLUCOSE screen to notify you of a predicted
high or low glucose. If your symptoms do not match
the sensor glucose value, or what the alerts indicate,
you should immediately perform a fingerstick blood
glucose test before making a treatment decision.
Alerts and Notifications
Q: Can I change the vibration alert pattern on my
smart transmitter?
A: Smart transmitter vibe patterns are fixed and cannot
be changed. The repeat interval can be changed for
some Alerts in Settings > Sound Settings.
Q: Can I increase the volume of the app sounds
coming from my mobile device?
A: You may increase the volume of the app sounds by
connecting your mobile device to an external device
to amplify the sound.
Q: Can I change the number of alerts I receive?
A: If you feel that you are getting too many alerts, you
should first discuss the alert settings best suited for
you with your healthcare provider. If you need to
change your glucose alert settings, tap Menu >
Settings > Glucose.
Q: What are rate of change alerts?
A: Rate of Change Alerts notify you when your glucose
level is falling or rising faster than the setting you
entered in Settings > Glucose.
