A

Accept - Pressing the ACT button to approve the selection or setting.

Active insulin - Insulin that has been delivered to your body, but has not yet been used.

Alarm - Audible or vibrating (silent) notice that indicates the pump is in Attention mode and immediate attention is required. Alarms are prefixed in the alarm history with the letter A.

Alarm clock - The feature you can use like any alarm clock. You can set the pump to send you an alarm at certain times of the day as reminders. For example, you can set the pump to send you an alarm every four hours to remind you to check your blood glucose level.

ALARM HISTORY screen - The screen that displays the last twelve alarms or errors that have occurred on your pump.

Alert - An audible ‘beep’ or vibration from the pump to notify you that the pump needs attention soon. You may need to replace a low battery, or the pump may be sending you a reminder of something (for example, that you need to check your blood glucose level). An alert does not affect insulin delivery.

Attention mode - The operating mode that stops all current insulin delivery. This mode indicates an alarm or condition exists that requires immediate attention.

Glossary

B

Backlight - Pump screen light. Turns on whenever

the button is pressed or in combination with

the button if not on the HOME screen. The

backlight also appears during an alarm (except LOW BATT).

Basal rate - The pump setting that provides a continuous infusion of insulin to keep the blood glucose stable between meals and during the night. Basal insulin mimics pancreatic insulin delivery - which meets all the body’s non-food related insulin needs.

BASAL REVIEW screen - The screen that shows the basal insulin delivery rates programmed in the pump. This includes the total amount of insulin delivered by the pump every 24 hours at each delivery rate.

BG - (Blood glucose) The main sugar that your body makes from food (especially carbohydrates). Glucose is the major source of energy for your body and is carried in the bloodstream.

BG (blood glucose) reminder - The feature that you can use to remind you to check your blood glucose level after a bolus insulin dose.
