Meter rules
If you want your pump to communicate with the Paradigm Link meter, the following conditions must apply:
1. The meter option must be turned on and programmed. Refer to the instructions in this section.
2. Your pump must be within 4 feet (1.22 meters) of your Paradigm Link meter to receive the BG reading.
3. The pump cannot have a LOW BATTERY alert condition.
4. When programming a bolus, the BG measurement from the Paradigm Link meter will appear as the default BG
value in the ENTER BG screen. The pump will not display a reading that is older than 12 minutes.
5. Make sure the pump’s Meter Option is set to “off” while onboard aircraft.
6. Do not use the RF meter to send your BG readings to the pump while onboard aircraft. Manually
enter your BG.
Add, delete, review meter IDs
The meter programming screens are very similar to those for the remote control. Make sure to select
“Meter Options” (in the UTILITIES MENU) when programming your Paradigm Link meter.
If you are not sure that your Paradigm Link meter ID is entered in your pump, check the REVIEW METER ID
screen.
You have to turn on the meter option to add, delete or review the Paradigm Link meter ID(s) programmed in
your pump.

1.
In the METER OPTION screen, select On and
press ACT. The METER ID MENU will appear.
CAUTION: The pump will not receive signals from the Paradigm Link meter while it has a “Low Battery”
condition. To ensure the meter communicates with the pump, make sure the pump does not
have a low battery. (Replacing the low battery with a new battery will restore meter-pump
communication.)
