Setting Up the Micropump System
3.2.2 Programming the Basal Rate Profile
The aim of insulin pump therapy is to reproduce the natural
biorhythm of insulin delivery of a healthy pancreas as far as
possible.
The basal rate covers the basal, meal-independent insulin
requirement. The basal rate is specified in insulin units per hour
(U/h = Units per hour). The distribution of the basal insulin
requirement over up to 24 time blocks results in the basal rate
profile.

Note
The factory settings provide
24 time blocks with one hour
each.
The first time block starts
with the start time 00:00 and
ends at 01:00. The last time
block starts at 23:00 and
ends at 00:00.
For each time block, 0 U/h is
set by factory default.
