Percent of basal
Unlike insulin rate, the percent of basal is dependent on your current basal rates. Percent temp basal is a
percentage of your current basal (0–200 percent limited to your Maximum basal rate setting). The temp basal
amount is rounded down to the next 0.025 or 0.05 U/H increment based on the basal rate.
The maximum percent limit is based on the largest basal rate segment with your programmed temp basal
rate time.
For example: It is 06:00 and your current basal rate is 1.50 U/H. You want to set a temp basal rate of
130 percent for seven hours. The maximum percent temp basal rate you can set is 125 percent. Anything
larger would make #2 segment exceed your Maximum basal setting of 2.0 U/H.
Your current basal rates:
Your Maximum basal rate setting: 2.0 U/H
Segment #1: 00:00 1.50 U/H
Segment #2: 11:00 1.60 U/H (largest)
Segment #3: 16:00 1.30 U/H
If your current basal changes (for example, from rate 1 to rate 2), your percent temp basal amount will also
change. The pump will deliver the percentage for the duration that you have set.
