Constantly looking at your screen may not be practical. You can customize your Rise/Fall
Alert with vibrations or beeps letting you know when your glucose is rising or falling (2
mg/dL/min or 30 mg/dL up or down in 15 minutes) or rising or falling rapidly (3 or more
mg/dL/min or 45 mg/dL or more up or down in 15 minutes).
The default setting for Repeat and Rise/Fall Rate is Off .
It's important you discuss your alert settings with your healthcare professional.
Signal Loss
Signal Loss Alert tells you when your transmitter and receiver aren't communicating. Set the
Signal Loss and get alerted if your sensor glucose readings have stopped due to a signal loss
anywhere from 20 to 200 minutes.
The default setting for Signal Loss is On .
Steps to Customize Receiver Alarm/Alerts
Using the same example from changing your app Alerts, let's change the receiver's High Alert
notification level from 200 mg/dL to 190 mg/dL, repeating every 60 minutes.
Follow the same steps turning on the Rise/Fall Alerts, and adjusting your Low Alerts.
