The receiver and app don’t talk to one another. If you enter an Event only into
the receiver, while the information will appear on Dexcom reports, you won’t
get an Event marker on your app’s trend screen.
The app has Event markers on its screen, but the receiver doesn’t.
However, there may be times when you want or need to enter Events on the
receiver.

While the Event data is the same between display devices, the flow is not the
same, including how to enter the Event’s date and time. The following table
reviews how to enter the same Carbs/Stress Event data from the previous
scenario: Carbs at 85, and a Stress Event.
