Using the Bolus Wizard feature for a Square Wave or Dual Wave bolus

If you are using the Bolus Wizard feature to calculate your Square Wave or Dual Wave bolus amounts, you will be prompted to enter your blood glucose reading and/or the (carb or exchange) units you will eat. The Bolus Wizard feature will use this input to calculate your suggested correction and/or food bolus amount. If you do not want to use the Bolus Wizard feature estimate, you can change it, if desired.

1The Bolus Wizard feature must be turned on and the settings must be programmed. Also, make sure the dual/square option is turned on.

NOTE - If you want to use the pump-to-meter link, make sure the meter option is on. See “Meter option” on page 73 for instructions.

2After you enter your blood glucose and/or food entry, review the information in the ESTIMATE DETAILS screen. Press ACT to continue to step 3. If you need to make any changes, press ESC to return to the ENTER BG screen and make changes as necessary.
