an energy scan. The pump will perform the energy scan if after 10 minutes no
CGM transmitter signal has been received. If the channel change occurs the pump
will send beacons on the new channel.
The CGM transmitter will initiate a channel search when beacon detection fails on
the associated channel. The search will be conducted across all five channels.
When the beacon is located the transmitter will rejoin on the identified channel.
Upon re-association any missed packets (up to 10 hours) will be transmitted from
the CGM transmitter to the pump.
In normal operation the CGM transmitter will transmit a packet every 5 minutes
and retransmit the packet if the data is corrupted or missed.

Data security
The MiniMed 640G insulin pump is designed to only accept radio frequency (RF)
communications from recognized and linked devices (you must program your
pump to accept information from a specific device).
The MiniMed 640G system ensures data security via proprietary means and ensures
data integrity using error checking processes, such as cyclic redundancy checks.
