■ The System Setup Menu
The System setup menu lets you personalize the settings that
control the OmniPod System. These include:
• Date and time
• Bolus doses, basal rates, and bolus calculator settings
• Alerts and reminders
• Blood glucose meter settings and tags
• PDM options
• Diagnostics
You and your healthcare provider entered initial System settings
using the Setup Wizard (see Chapter 2, Getting Started). After
setup, you can use the System setup menu to customize or
change those settings, as described in this chapter.
■ Reset the Date or Time
Occasionally, you need to change date and time settings (for
example, to adjust for daylight savings time or after resetting the
PDM). As a safety feature, you can change date and time settings
only when the Pod is deactivated or when insulin delivery is sus-
pended (see Chapter 5, Using the Pod).
1. Suspend insulin delivery.
2. On the Home screen, use the Up/Down Controller buttons
to choose Settings; then press Select.
3. Choose System setup, then press Select.
4. Choose Date/time, then press Select.
5. Choose either Date or Time, then press Edit.

If you are changing the Pod, you can reset the date or
time without suspending by changing the date or
time before activating the new Pod.
