6.1. About Basal Programmes
While in Manual Mode, Basal Programmes are used to deliver a steady amount
of insulin throughout the day. is is known as your basal insulin. Dierent days
can have dierent routines. e Omnipod 5 System lets you create dierent Basal
Programmes for your dierent routines. For example, you may use one Basal
Programme on weekdays and a dierent one on weekends.
Before you create or change a Basal Programme, do the following:
• Cancel your temp basal if it is running. See “7.3. Cancelling a Temp Basal or
Temp Basal Preset” on page 99.
• Switch to Manual Mode if currently using Automated Mode. See
“22.2. Switching from Automated Mode to Manual Mode” on page 276.
Tip: Write a list of the basal segments to guide you through entering the values for
each segment. You can write this list on the pages at the end of this User Guide.
