If you press
to clear all the segments of the basal program selected. The Alert screen
shown here is displayed. If you do wish to clear all the basal segments of the
selected program, scroll to "Clear Program" and press
If you do not wish to clear all the basal segments, scroll to "Basal Options"
and press
. The BASAL OPTIONS screen will be displayed.
If all segments of your active basal program are set to 0.000 U/Hr your pump
will not deliver any basal insulin. Each time you wake up your pump, the
Alert screen shown here is displayed. If you have turned on the sound for
Alerts, you will also be notified by a beep or vibrate. This Alert screen does
not progress to higher audible alarms. You have the option to either select
"Confirm" to quickly go to the MAIN MENU or select "Basal Menu" to reset
rates in your active program. For more information see Chapter 11 in Section I.
Temporary Basal Feature
This feature allows you to temporarily increase or decrease your basal delivery rate for a set duration
to cover events such as sick days or exercise. Once the set duration expires, the pump will resume
your active basal delivery program/rate. You can decrease your basal rate by up to 90% (in 10%
decrements) or increase your basal rate by up to 200% (in 10% increments). You can also set to OFF.
You can set duration for up to 24 hours in half-hour increments. (If you have activated multiple basal
programs in the Setup Advanced menu, all 4 basal program options will be displayed as shown on
screen example in step 1 that follows.)
With a battery change, cartridge change, priming your infusion set, suspending insulin delivery, or
warnings, alarms, and alerts that stop insulin delivery, any Temp Basal is canceled. Once insulin
delivery resumes, your active basal program/rate for the current time set in the pump will resume. If
you wish to return to Temp Basal mode, you will need to re-set your desired percentage and duration.
As an example, let's say you are about to play tennis and would like to decrease your basal rate by
40% for the next 2 hours.
If your current active basal rate is 1.000 U/Hr, your Temp Basal rate setting will adjust the rate to
0.600 U/Hr (1.000 U/Hr - 0.400 U/Hr) for the next 2 hours. After the 2 hour period, your active basal
program/rate will resume to 1.000 U/Hr. See steps 1 through 4 that follow to set a Temp Basal.
