About Radio Frequency (RF) Communication
Your pump and Dexcom G4 PLATINUM Sensor and Transmitter have built-in RF capability. RF is a type
of wireless communication. Cell phones use RF technology, as do many other devices. RF is how your
pump and CGM communicate and share CGM data.
The RF feature on your pump will be deactivated when you first receive it. In order to begin using your
pump and Sensor/Transmitter together as a system, you must enter the ID of your Transmitter into your
pump to activate RF communication.
RF communication between your pump and Sensor/Transmitter will work up to a distance of about
12 feet (3.6 meters) and will transmit through clothing. Direct line of sight is not required for RF
communication. As long as you have a good RF signal and are within range, you can use your pump
to display CGM data. Exposing your pump and Sensor/Transmitter to water, lying in a waterbed, and
certain objects in between the two devices may interfere with RF communication. Nearby metallic
objects and electric blankets may also interfere with RF communication.
When conditions or distance cause RF communication to be lost or interrupted, data transfer between
the pump and Sensor/Transmitter devices will stop temporarily. This means that you will not be able
to use your pump to display most recent CGM data or future CGM readings until the RF communication
is restored. As soon as the problem is resolved, RF communication will resume. Refer to Chapter 12 in
Section II for more information on conditions that may cause RF communication problems.
