The Dexcom G5 Mobile CGM System knows when a typical seven day sensor session is over,
automatically ending the session in each display device. However, if you need to end the
session early, you need to let the system know by manually stopping the sensor session.
While the end result is the same (ending a sensor session), the steps differ between the app
and receiver. If you are using both, no need to stop the sensor session in each: the other
display will see the session has stopped.
Let us first look at how to end a sensor session in the app, then the receiver.
