Using the Sensor
7.1 About your Sensor
The Bigfoot Unity
™
Diabetes Management System only works with
Abbott FreeStyle Libre 2 Sensors and cannot be used with other
sensors. When in range of each other, your Sensor continuously sends
glucose readings to your App/phone. Information about your glucose
range or Sensor status is displayed on the Home screen. You may
also receive alerts about low glucose or if your sensor is unavailable.
However, in order to obtain your most current glucose reading and
Trend Arrow, you will need to scan your Sensor with your White Cap on
a regular basis. Your most current glucose reading and Trend Arrow will
appear on your Cap display, and the past 8 hours of your glucose data
will be stored in your App where you are able to track and look for trends
in your data.
IMPORTANT:
• A maximum of 8 hours of glucose data is stored in the Sensor.
To avoid gaps (missing data) in your Sensor glucose history
graph, it is important to scan your Sensor with your White Cap
and bring it within communication range (within 20 feet) of your
App at least once every 8 hours.
• During the first 12 hours of Sensor wear “Use Meter” will display
on the White Cap, and you cannot use Sensor values to make
treatment decisions during this time. Confirm Sensor glucose
readings with a blood glucose test before making treatment
decisions during the first 12 hours of Sensor wear when you see
“Use Meter.”
• Talk to your health care provider about how you should use your
Sensor glucose information to help manage your diabetes.
