Personal Pump Communicator (PPC)
The Personal Pump Communicator (PPC) is the hand-held component of the
Medtronic MiniMed 2007D Implantable Pump System (see Figure 5).
The PPC allows the physician and patient to communicate with the Pump by
transmitting radio frequency messages when the PPC is held within 3” of the
Pump. Additionally, the PPC stores important programming information in its
memory.

The PPC has been designed so the physician and patient can:
Program basal infusion rates (up to 48 basal rates per day, 3 different
patterns)
Deliver or suspend an immediate, Square Wave, or Dual Wave Bolus of
insulin
Deliver or cancel a temporary basal rate
Review the insulin delivery history
Enter personal events (meal, snack, exercise)
Independent of the programming function, the PPC is able to receive and record
certain programming data from the Pump. The recorded information is accessible
and can be displayed on the screen.
