Understanding PDM and Pod Function 12 12 Understanding PDM and Pod Function
The PDM cannot communicate with the Pod when:
• The PDM is, or has temporarily been, too far from the Pod; for example,
when you attend a meeting, leaving your PDM back at your desk.
• The PDM’s battery has run down.
• There is too much outside interference (see “Omnipod DASH™ System
Notice Concerning Interference” on page 182).
For information about handling PDM-Pod communication problems,
see “Communication Errors” on page 120.
Pod deactivation
Deactivation unpairs a PDM and Pod from each other. Deactivation:
• Stops the current Pod’s insulin delivery.
• Permanently silences any alarms from that Pod.
• Frees the PDM to activate a new Pod.
Note: Deactivation does not occur automatically when the Pod expires or runs
out of insulin. In these situations, you must still use the PDM to deactivate the
current Pod before the PDM can activate a new Pod.
Discarding a Pod
When the PDM cannot resolve a communication error, the PDM is unable to
deactivate the Pod. In this situation, the PDM asks if you want to “discard” the
Pod. “Discarding” unpairs the PDM from that Pod but does not stop the Pod’s
insulin delivery. Therefore, if you tell the PDM to “discard” a Pod, be sure to
remove and dispose of the old Pod before activating a new Pod. To prevent the
“discarded” Pod from sounding an alarm at a later time, follow the instructions
for silencing a Pod alarm on page 123. Otherwise, if a discarded Pod sounds an
alarm, the alarm stops after 15 hours.
What the Pod can do between PDM instructions
Once activated, the Pod can perform the following without input from the PDM:
• Deliver insulin according to the active Basal Program’s schedule. The Pod has a
built-in clock that allows it to track the timing of the Basal Program’s segments.
• Stop delivery of a temp basal at the scheduled time and resume delivery of the
active Basal Program.
• Once a bolus or an extended bolus is started, complete the delivery of the bolus.
• Track the amount of insulin remaining inside the Pod.
