Personal basal patterns
The personal basal patterns feature is optional for pump users. You may want to explore this option after you become familiar with the basic functions of your pump. It is important that you consult your healthcare professional before using this feature.
Personal basal patterns allow you to establish different sets of basal rates in order to match different needs, such as:
■
■
Do your sleep patterns change?
Do weekday and weekend activities change?
Before you are able to use this feature and set different personal basal patterns, you must first turn ON the Patterns Option.

You can set up to three different patterns (Standard, A and B).
Each pattern must have at least one basal rate set or it will not be accepted as a pattern.
Keep a paper copy of the pattern(s) and basal rate(s) you have programmed with you at all times.
For best results discuss this option with your healthcare professional.
