The next step is attaching your transmitter to the sensor pod.
6.6 Attaching Your Transmitter
Now that you have inserted your sensor, you need to attach your transmitter.
Since the transmitter is reusable, you don’t need a new one every time you
start a sensor session. Keep your current session’s transmitter box. The
bottom label has important information you may need after you’ve attached
the transmitter. Once the transmitter has been attached, you can’t remove it
until your session is over. Chapter 8 reviews when and how to remove your
transmitter.
Before attaching your transmitter, check you’ve entered the correct transmitter
SN into your display device. Chapter 5 covers entering transmitter’s SN
number during initial setup. See Chapter 8 for pairing your transmitter after the
startup wizard
