System Action
Above Target Glucose
Automated insulin delivery generally increases.
If CGM values are trending downwards, automated insulin delivery may
still decrease or pause even if CGM values are above Target Glucose.
Within Target Glucose
Automated insulin delivery is generally maintained to keep CGM values
near Target Glucose.
Below Target Glucose
Automated insulin delivery generally decreases or pauses.
If CGM values are trending upwards, automated insulin delivery may still
increase even if CGM values are below Target Glucose.
Less than 60 mg/dL Automated insulin delivery will always pause.
