ANIMAS® VIBE™ SYSTEM
cHAPtER 5 - USING BASAl PROGRAm FEAtURES
You can program your pump to display either 1 or 4 basal program options. Basal insulin is delivered
continuously to help keep your BG in target between meals. Having more than one pre-set basal
program makes it easy for you to switch programs for weekends, weekdays, shift work, menstruation
and sick days. If you are new to pumping, your HCP may suggest you first become comfortable with
one program before programming multiple basal programs. Consult with your HCP about basal insulin
needs and what to do if you become ill.
NOTE: DO NOT try to set a basal delivery amount less than 0.025U/Hr. You cannot set a basal delivery
amount less than 0.025U/Hr. When you set a negative temporary basal rate, your pump will beep
and display an Alert screen to remind you of the minimum delivery limit. The screen will display once
for 4 seconds and give one audible alert (if you turn on Alert sounds in Setup). Your pump will not
deliver any temporary basal set below 0.025U/Hr. Any temporary basal rate set below 0.025U/Hr will
automatically be re-set to 0.025U/Hr.
Setting a Basal Program
Each basal program can be set with up to 12 different basal rates (doses) in a 24-hour period.
These 12 basal rates can be set to accommodate your changing basal needs throughout the day. For
example, your body may need more insulin in the early hours of sleeping to compensate for the "dawn
phenomenon." You can program time segments to begin at any hour or half hour.

program options will be displayed as shown on the
