Bolus Doses
Deliver an iBolus™ (audio bolus)
The iXL System’s exclusive iBolus feature lets you deliver a
bolus conveniently and discreetly, without having to look at the
remote screen. The iBolus button is located on the right side of
the remote (Figure 4-6).
The iBolus increment depends on the bolus increment
that you select during setup. For example, if your normal bolus
increment is 1.0 unit, the iBolus increment will be the same.
When delivering an iBolus dose, the blood glucose check
reminder feature defaults to Off.
1. Press the iBolus button.
The remote beeps once to confirm that the iBolus feature is
active.
2. Press the iBolus button once for each increment of insulin to
deliver. For example, if you want to deliver 3 units and your
increment is set to 1 unit, press the iBolus button 3 times .
3. After a brief pause, the remote beeps once for each
increment entered, so you can confirm the dose by counting
the number of beeps.
If you press the iBolus button during the counting period, the
remote cancels the operation and returns to the Status screen.
4. Within 3 seconds of hearing the final beep, press Start to
confirm the dose (Figure 4-7).
If you do not press Start within 3 seconds, the remote
automatically cancels the iBolus and returns to the Main
menu.
5. After you confirm the dose, the pump beeps once to signal
that bolus delivery has begun.
