CHAPTER 22 • Start or Stop a CGM Sensor Session
WARNING
Continue to use a BG meter and test strips in
order to make treatment decisions during the 2-
hour startup period.
NOTE
Sensor Startup Period and Automated
Insulin Dosing: During the sensor startup
period, the automated insulin dosing feature will
not affect the basal rates or deliver automatic
correction boluses. The sensor must be actively
providing readings for the automated insulin
dosing feature to operate.
Examples
For example, if you started your sensor
session 20 minutes ago, you would see
this countdown symbol on the CGM
Home screen.

If you started your sensor session 90
minutes ago, you would see this
countdown symbol on the CGM Home
screen.
At the end of the 2-hour startup period,
the countdown symbol will be replaced
with the current CGM reading.
Follow the instructions in the next
chapter to calibrate your sensor. Skip
the calibration instructions if you
entered a sensor code. You may enter
a calibration into the System at any
time, even if you have already entered
sensor code. Pay attention to your
symptoms, and if they do not match the
current CGM readings, you may
choose to enter a calibration.
Ending Your Sensor Session
When the sensor session ends, you will
need to replace the sensor and start a
new sensor session. In some cases
your sensor session may end early. You
may also choose to end the sensor
session early.
Sensor glucose alerts and alarms do
not work after the sensor session ends.
Once the sensor session has ended,
CGM readings are not available. If you
are using the automated insulin dosing
feature, it becomes inactive when a
CGM sensor session is ended.
WARNING
Control-IQ technology limits basal rate to 3
units/hour after the sensor session has ended.
In order to receive more than 3 units/hour after
