The graphs
All graphs show High and Low Glucose Limits lines, a real-time SG measurement line, a data section, and
the cursor (flashing vertical line). When you open any graph, the cursor flashes on the right edge of the
graph, the data section shows the most recent SG measurement (or the reason why no measurement
shows), and the time in the data section matches the time at the top of the screen.
High Glucose Limit line
200 mg/dL
(11.1 mmol/L)
Low Glucose Limit line
70 mg/dL (3.9 mmol/L)
Real-time SG measurement line
Indicates that your SG has risen above
315 mg/dL (17.5 mmol/L)
Cursor (flashing line) selects a time on the graph. The SG measurement for that time, or the
reason no SG measurement is shown for that time, shows in the data section.
Data section shows the time
of the SG measurement, the
type of graph, and your SG
data (or the reason no SG
data is shown).

When you move the cursor left to select an earlier SG measurement, the data section of the graph turns
black, the word History appears, and the time in the data section changes to show the time when the SG
measurement was taken (or the reason why no SG measurement shows for that time). Because your system
does not alert every time there is no SG measurement, your alarm/alert history may not match the
number of times your graphs have SG measurement gaps.
