Initial Setup of the Dexcom G5 Receiver
Press the select button to turn receiver on.
The first screen is the startup screen with progressing green bars. Once complete, a setup
wizard guides you through the initial setup steps. Don't be alarmed if your receiver buzzes or
makes other sounds during this process.
After your initial setup is complete, you won't see the setup wizard again. Your settings can
always be adjusted using menu options.
How you complete your initial setup differs between the receiver and your smart device;
however, the data is the same.
Setup Wizard Prompts:
• Time/Date
• Transmitter Serial Number
–
Back of transmitter
–
Back of transmitter's box
• Setting Low Alert
• Setting High Alert
Before starting a session, you may want to check the receiver's battery level. If it is less than
half, go to Chapter 15 for charging instructions.
