1.5 RECEIVER OVERVIEW

The receiver is the small hand-held device that looks like a cell phone. It is about 4 inches long, 1.8 inches
wide and 0.5 inches thick. It shows your sensor glucose readings, trend graph, direction and rate of change
arrow.
Do not spill fluids on the receiver or drop the receiver into fluids. Keep the micro USB port door closed to
help prevent fluid and dust from getting inside the receiver.
The trend graph screen on your receiver shows your sensor glucose readings, trend graph, direction and
rate of change arrow.
There are five receiver buttons to move you through the screens. The trend graph screens show sensor
glucose readings, trend graphs and trend arrows. The receiver menu screens let you change your receiver
settings.
Your receiver and transmitter wirelessly pair together to communicate securely and only with each other.
You will need a commercially available blood glucose meter to use with your system.
