4 Press ACT. The EDIT SETTINGS screen shows the length of time you entered for the Missed Data
option.
Setting the sensor glucose graph timeout
The sensor glucose graph timeout is how long the graph shows on the monitor screen until the HOME
screen automatically appears. The default timeout is two minutes, and you can set it for two, four, or
six minutes.
Using a continuous graph display
You can also select NONE to set the sensor graph timeout to display continuously. If you select NONE, the
sensor graphs will show until another screen or menu is selected, or an alarm/alert occurs. Selecting
continuous graph display uses more battery power and decreases battery life. To return to the HOME
screen from the sensor glucose graphs, press ESC until the HOME screen appears.
To set the sensor glucose graph timeout:
1 Make sure the EDIT SETTINGS screen is open.
MAIN MENU > Sensor > Sensor Setup > Edit Settings
2 Select Graph Timeout, press ACT. The SET GRAPH TIMEOUT screen flashes the default time (two
minutes).
3 Select your Graph Timeout. The time you select must be: two minutes; four minutes; six minutes; or
NONE.
4 Press ACT. The EDIT SETTINGS screen shows the Graph Timeout you selected.
