Alarm Message Urgency What It Means What to Do
High – H, Medium – M, Intermediate – I, Low – L
Alarms Inactive Skin
Temp Range.
ISkin temperature at the insertion site is either too
low or too high for the system to produce correct
readings. Condition has been persistent for up to
one hour. e alarms are not working.
Remove the sensor and insert a new one (see
Section 5). If problem persists, then replace
transmitter.
Cal Failed: High BG
Redo BG Later.
ICalibration failed because the Blood Glucose mode
test reading was too high. e system needs a blood
glucose level between 60 and 300 mg/dL
(3.3 and 16.7 mmol/L) for proper calibration.
If your glucose level is high, follow your healthcare
professional’s advice for a high glucose level
(hyperglycemic) episode. Perform another Blood
Glucose mode test for calibration.
Cal Failed: Low BG
Redo BG Later.
ICalibration failed because the Blood Glucose mode
test reading was too low. e system needs a blood
glucose level between 60 and 300 mg/dL (3.3 and
16.7 mmol/L) for proper calibration.
If your glucose level is low, follow your healthcare
professional’s advice for a low glucose level
(hypoglycemic) episode. Perform another Blood
Glucose mode test for calibration.
Cal Failed: Receiver
Temp Redo BG Later.
ICalibration failed because the receiver was too
warm or too cold.
Bring the receiver to room temperature, and then
perform another Blood Glucose mode test for
calibration.
Cal Failed: Redo BG in
1 hr.
Ie Blood Glucose mode test showed the sensor
may not be working properly.
Wait 1 hour and perform a Blood Glucose mode
test for calibration.
Cal Failed: Redo BG
Late r.
ICalibration failed because the information from
the transmitter was incomplete or there is no
connection between the transmitter and receiver or
your glucose levels have been changing rapidly.
Make sure that the receiver and transmitter are
connected. Wait 1 hour and perform a Blood
Glucose mode test for calibration.
Cal Failed: Redo BG
Test .
ICalibration test was very dierent from the
previous calibration.
Perform another Blood Glucose mode test for
calibration.
