Setting a Basal Program
Each basal program can be set with up to 12 different basal
rates in a 24-hour period.
The BASAL MENU displays the following:
• Total basal insulin programmed for the 24-hour period.
• Temp (if you wish to program a Temporary Basal rate).
• An “A” with active basal program in all upper case letters indicates the
active program.
TIPS:
• If you have activated multiple basal programs in the Setup Advanced menu,
all 4 basal program options will be displayed as shown above.
• The pump will not deliver any temporary basal set below 0.025 U/Hr. Any
temporary basal rate set below 0.025 U/Hr will automatically be re-set to
0.025 U/Hr.
Temp Basal Features
This feature allows you to increase your active basal delivery
rate for events such as sick days or decrease for events such as
exercise.
• Decrease basal rate by 90% (in 10% decrements) or
increase basal rate up to 200% (in 10% increments). Temp Basal also can be
set to OFF.
• Duration up to 24 hours in half-hour increments.
