6.2.3 SETTING THE OUT OF RANGE ALERT
The out of range alert lets you know when the sensor/transmitter and receiver
are not communicating with each other. Typically, you should keep the sensor/
transmitter and receiver within 6 meters of each other. When the sensor/
transmitter and receiver are too far apart and are not communicating, you will not
receive sensor glucose readings from the sensor.
When this happens, the out of range symbol will
appear in the upper right corner of the trend graph
and the screen to the right will appear. The amount of
time the devices are out of range will appear on the
out of range alert screen.
1. Press the UP or DOWN button to choose “Out of
Range” and press the SELECT button.
2. On the out of range menu, press the UP or DOWN
button to choose “On/Off.” Then, press the SELECT
button to select “On.” If you do not want to receive
out of range alerts press the SELECT button to
choose “Off.”
3. Next, on the out of range menu, press the UP or
DOWN button to choose “Time” and press the
SELECT button.
