Alarms, Notifications and
Communication Errors

Overview

Warnings:
Respond to hazard alarms as soon as possible. Pod hazard alarms indicate
that insulin delivery has stopped. Failure to respond to a hazard alarm can
result in hyperglycaemia.
If you need to return the PDM for replacement, contact your healthcare
provider for instructions about using injections to ensure appropriate insulin
delivery.
The Omnipod DASH™ System generates the following types of alarms and
messages:
Hazard alarms are high-priority alarms that indicate a serious problem has
occurred and you should remove your Pod.
Advisory alarms are lower-priority alarms that indicate that a situation exists
that requires your attention.
Notifications, also called reminders, remind you about an action that you
may want to perform.
Informational signals inform you that the Pod is following your insulin
•
delivery instructions. No action is required.
• Communication error messages display when the PDM is unable to
communicate with the Pod.
For how to view the alarms and notifications history, see page 83.
