Normal bolus using Bolus Wizard feature

After the Bolus Wizard feature is turned on and programmed, this feature can calculate an estimate of insulin you need for your correction bolus and/or your food bolus. You have the option of using the estimate or changing it as necessary. Additionally, your pump can receive your blood glucose readings from the Paradigm Link meter, if they are linked.

Use to deliver a normal bolus at any time except during another Normal bolus. A normal bolus

will temporarily interrupt a Square Wave or Dual Wave bolus that is delivering. After the normal bolus is finished, the Square Wave or Dual Wave bolus delivery will resume.

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.
