Personal Software
Your pump provides continuous glucose values so that you can track glucose concentration patterns and
possibly identify episodes of low and high blood glucose. It also stores glucose data so that it can be analyzed
to track patterns or downloaded to CareLink Personal for analysis of historical glucose values.
CareLink Personal is a Web-based system designed to help you manage your diabetes. It has many key
features:
• It copies (uploads) data from your devices: insulin pump and supported blood glucose meters.
• Device data is stored on a centralized database.
• There is an online logbook where you can record self-reported information, such as how many
carbohydrates you consumed.
• Uploaded data and other information stored on the system can be viewed through several different types
of treatment reports.
• Access to data and personal information on this system is secure.
Reports
Reports show you data gathered from your device(s), and from what you directly entered into the system.
Examples of the report data you can get include:
• Pump operation, such as alarm settings and maximum allowed bolus amount.
• Insulin delivery rates, types and times.
• Blood glucose reading levels and times.
• Sensor glucose reading levels and times.
• Bolus Wizard or online logbook entry data.
Reports are displayed in PDF format. They can be viewed online, saved, or printed.
