Calibration

Receiver
Your sensor glucose readings begin in approximately five minutes once the
device(s) accepts your calibrations.
Update Calibration Notifications
Once your startup calibration is done, your update calibration schedule
begins.
The steps to enter your update calibrations are the same as your startup
calibration, including only entering values in one display device. The only
difference is, with update calibrations, enter your BG meter value just once.
The default BG value is your current reading if available or 120 mg/dL.
Like the reminders you received with your startup calibration, if you don’t enter
your BG meter values right away, the system notifies you every 15 minutes.
