CHAPTER 4 - INSULIN DELIVERY FUNCTIONS ON YOUR METER REMOTE
ezCarb Bolus
The ezCarb feature allows you to enter the number of carbs eaten, and then have your meter remote
automatically calculate and deliver a bolus from your pump. The calculator is based on the I:C ratios
that you have set and stored in your pump, and the number of carbs you plan to consume. Carb totals
may be entered manually for the calculator, or may be selected from the Food Database stored in the
meter remote.
You may also include a BG correction in your ezCarb bolus calculation. The BG correction is based on
the ISF and BG Target you have set and stored in your pump, and your current BG test result.
If the IOB feature is enabled on your pump, your meter remote will calculate a reduced bolus amount if
there is any IOB left from a previous bolus.
Be sure to discuss your personal I:C ratios, ISFs, BG Targets and IOB with your health care professional
before you use the ezCarb feature.

In anticipating that you might want to add a BG correction to your
ezCarb Bolus, your meter remote will first check if the most recent BG test on
your meter remote was taken within the last 15 minutes. If it was, you will go
directly to the ezCarb Home screen below. Your most recent BG test result
will appear in the "Actual" field on the BG Correct screen that is displayed if
you decide to add a BG correction to your ezCarb Bolus (see step 4, Add a
BG correction, pages 195–196).
If your most recent glucose test was taken more than 15 minutes ago, you
will be notified on the display. You will be prompted to re-test or manually
enter a new BG value if you are planning to add a BG correction to your
ezCarb Bolus (see step 4, Add a BG correction, pages 195–196). Press
confirm the Notification and go to the ezCarb Home screen below.

The ezCarb Home screen will appear. On the ezCarb Home screen, you
can either manually enter carbs or automatically enter carbs from the Food
Database. Carb entries made with the ezCarb feature on your meter remote
are saved in your meter remote memory (see Chapter 7 in Section II, pages
149–158), and in your pump (see Chapter 8 in Section I, page 39). The
maximum carbs that can be entered in the ezCarb Bolus calculations is 999
grams(g) – even if the selected and totaled amount from the Food Database
is greater than that amount.
