Section 3. Preparation before Use 3.1. Preparation before Use The Sensor: Check the sterile packaging and the expiration date to make sure that the sensor is in good condition. The Transmitter: Make sure that one new CR1620 (3V) cell button battery is available for each sensor when beginning the monitoring. Prepare the transmitter (Fig.8): Install a CR1620 battery in the transmitter.

correct, and that the battery indicator indicates sufficient battery power. When the transmitter has been successfully started, its ID number will be displayed on the receiver. Verify the number of the transmitter. Touch the number on the screen to select the transmitter. And then “Yes” to connect the transmitter The Bluetooth antenna icon appears on the receiver screen, indicating the data communication has been established.
Section 4. Product Operation and Notice 4.1. Using a New Sensor Prepare the Receiver: When the receiver is turned ON, it searches for all nearby transmitters and displays a list of transmitters (or other Bluetooth devices nearby). Check receiver battery. Charge the battery if necessary. Set Date and Time, Alerts Modes, Hyper/Hypo Thresholds, and Language Prepare the Skin: Choose one upper arm or middle abdomen for sensor insertion (Fig.12).

Press the sensor base and the adhesive tape to achieve a firm adhesion(Fig.14). Figure14.Press the sensor plate firmly to ensure adhesion Remove the protection cap on the release button (Fig 15). Remove the protection cap on the release button (Fig 15). Bend down the inserter handle until the front sensor base plate pulls the skin up.

Figure 16b. The Correct Insertion Angle After sensor insertion, pull back to remove the inserter lock pin with the thumb of hand holding the inserter (Fig 17). Figure 17. Remove the Lock Pin Then, press the arms on the sides of the inserter to disengage the sensor. Remove and discard the inserter in medical sharp disposal (Fig.
Figure 19. Push the Sensor Connection Block into Position 4.2. Initialize the Sensor The screen then displays “Start Sensor? Yes/No". When choosing “Yes”, the system enters next Initialization Mode and begins to store sensor data (Fig.20). Figure 20. Starting Sensor Data Acquisition Install the transmitter to the sensor: Slide the transmitter onto the sensor base and lock (Fig.
Figure 22. Entering Reference Blood Glucose The sensor glucose value and a continuous glucose graph will be displayed after the BG entry (Fig. 23). Figure 23. Receiver Display for Normal Glucose Monitoring The sensor requires reference finger blood glucose (BG) for calibration. Follow the next Calibration Table to measure BG and enter to the receiver within 5 minutes.
4.5. Features of the Receiver Touch-Screen Display The Default Display: The default display includes a 5-hour glucose graph and a glucose value. The unit for glucose concentration is mg/dL (mmol/L is available in countries where this unit is used). Normal graph and glucose concentration are displayed in white.
your doctor. Outdoor Activities: Avoid vigorous sports activities that might involve physical bumps. Itchiness: Adhesive dressing tape usually may cause skin itchiness. This can be relieved by changing the cover dressing tape every few days. When changing tape, be careful not to disturb the sensor. If swelling or redness accompanying extreme itchiness happens under the sensor area, the sensor may need to be removed.
Section 5. Troubleshooting and Maintenance 5.1. Troubleshooting Receiver Memory Over-Flow. The receiver’s memory stores no less than 10 cycles of sensor’ data. However, it is recommended that you upload the sensor data to your computer (the desktop software can be obtained via customer service or dealers).

Sensor failure. Please end the The anomaly change of current Turn off the sensor from the Sensor Menu and session.
Clinical data A clinical trial for continuous glucose monitoring system (CGMS) was completed in 2015 by POCTech, involving 80 patients in two hospitals. An overall MARD (vs finger sticks) of 9.61% was achieved. The sensor also showed an overall MARD of 8.67% (vs venous blood glucose).
≤93% RH Humidity(RU)/% 6.2. EMC Declaration Guidance and Manufacturer’s Declaration-Electromagnetic emission CT10 Continuous Glucose Monitoring System is expected to be used in the following environment. Buyers and users should ensure that such electronic conditions are met. Emission Test Conformity Electromagnetic Environment——Guidance CT10 system adopts emission only for its internal communication.

Note 1:At 80MHz and 800MHz frequencies,use higher frequency formula. Note 2:The guidance may not be suitable for all circumstances. Electromagnetic transmission is affected by buildings, objects and human bodies. ⚫ Fixed position Transmitters, such as cordless phones, hubs for wireless networks, amateur shortwave radios, FM,/AM radios, and TVs, etc., emit electronic fields whose intensity may not be accurately known.
Recommended Distances for Portable RF Equipment with CT10 system CT10 Continuous Glucose Monitoring System is expected to be used in an environment where RF interferences are controlled. Based on the maximum output power levels, buyers or users may use the below calculation to estimate the minimum distances from an RF emitting device required to use the CT10 system.
