CHAPTER 6
Using the Personal Diabetes Manager
■ The ID Screen
When you first turn on the PDM, it displays the identification (ID)
screen (Figure 6-1), which allows you to identify that the PDM is
yours. You can personalize the ID screen by adding your name
and choosing its color. You must acknowledge the ID screen
before you can use the PDM.
■ The Status Screen
When a Pod is active and the PDM is turned on, the PDM estab-
lis
hes communication with the Pod to obtain a status check.
During the status check, the PDM collects information from the
Pod about bolus deliveries, active basal programs, and Pod expi-
ration. The information obtained is then displayed in the status
screen, which shows the System’s current operating status.
The Status screen (Figure 6-2) displays:
• Time, date, and result of last blood glucose checked or
entered manually
• Time, date, and total amount of last bolus delivered
It is important that you always identify the PDM as
yours before you use it.
