Steps To Customize Receiver Alarm/Alerts; Customizing Alerts: Receiver; Signal Loss - Dexcom G5 mobile User Manual

Constantly looking at your screen may not be practical. You can customize your Rise/Fall
Alert with vibrations or beeps letting you know when your glucose is rising or falling (0.1
mmol/L/min or 1.7 mmol/L/min up or down in 15 minutes) or rising or falling rapidly (0.2 or
more mmol/L/min or 2.5 mmol/L or more up or down in 15 minutes).
The default setting for Repeat and Rise/Fall Rate is Off .
It is important you discuss your alert settings with your healthcare professional.

Signal Loss

Signal Loss Alert tells you when your transmitter and receiver are not communicating. Set
the Signal Loss and get alerted if your sensor glucose readings have stopped due to a signal
loss anywhere from 20 to 200 minutes.
The default setting for Signal Loss is On .

Steps to Customize Receiver Alarm/Alerts

Using the same example from changing your app Alerts, let us change the receiver's High
Alert notification level from 11.1 mmol/L to 10.6 mmol/L, repeating every 60 minutes.
Follow the same steps turning on the Rise/Fall Alerts, and adjusting your Low Alerts.
