6 Using Bigfoot Unity Caps
Your Caps are used to help you keep track of how long it’s been since
you injected your last insulin dose using the pen. The White Cap also
captures glucose data from your Meter and Sensor and sends the
data to the App. The insulin settings from your health care provider,
displayed directly on the Caps, is helpful information for you to consider
when taking a dose of insulin from the pens.
Both Caps should have enough battery power to begin using them
when you rst remove them from the packaging. If you see a “Charge
Cap” message or a Low Battery symbol when you turn on or use
the Cap, you will need to charge the Caps according to the instructions
later in this chapter.
6.1 Pairing the Black and White Caps
If this is the rst time connecting your Caps with the App, the devices
will need to be paired. See Chapter 5 - First Time Setup of Bigfoot Unity
for more information on rst time pairing during App Setup.
See Chapter 10 - Troubleshooting if you are having problems pairing
your devices.
6.2 Using the Black and White Caps
Once your Caps are paired with the App, they will continue to display
your long-acting and rapid-acting insulin names when the Caps are
turned off. This feature does not require any battery power.
IMPORTANT: Your App and Caps are designed to communicate
and share data on an ongoing basis. It’s important to keep your
Caps within a 20 ft range of your phone so communication between
the App and Caps can take place regularly and information is up-to-
date.
