Occlusion detection
The detection of an occlusion will trigger a “no delivery alarm.” Up to 3.0 units of “missed” insulin are required to trigger the occlu- sion alarm. If the occlusion is released, this insulin will be deliv- ered. The table below demonstrates occlusion detections based on U100 insulin. Three different rates of insulin delivery are shown. Each with a minimum, typical and maximum time to trigger a “no delivery alarm.”

Personal basal delivery patterns
■Allows programming of up to three different basal patterns: Standard, A and B.
Power supply
■
■
The pump is powered by a standard 1.5 V AAA alkaline battery. (Energizer recommended for best results.)
The remote is powered by an A23 alkaline battery. Battery life, approximately 6 months.
