Check Pod Status
To check Pod status, if the PDM is turned off, press and hold the
Power
button to display the
Status
screen. If the PDM is on,
press
Back
until you reach the
Status
screen. (If you press and
hold the
Power
button, you will turn off the PDM instead.) Or,
from the
Home
screen, press
Status
.
The PDM automatically checks the status of the Pod. The PDM
then displays the current reservoir volume, PDM battery level,
last blood glucose, last bolus dose, active basal program, and any
alarm conditions. See Chapter 6, Using the Personal Diabetes
Manager, for details of what you see on the
Status
screen.
If the Pod goes into hazard alarm condition and the PDM is
unable to communicate with it to turn off the alarm, you can turn
it off manually. See the end of Chapter 11, Communication Fail-
ures, for instructions.
NEVER inject insulin (or anything else) into the
fill port while the Pod is on your body. Doing so may
result in unintended or interrupted insulin delivery.
Figure 5-22
Once a Pod is activated and communicates with the
PDM, it can only receive commands from that PDM,
not from any other.
