Understanding and Adjusting Basal Rates

Cancel a one-time temporary basal rate

1. On the Home screen, use the Up/Down Controller buttons

to choose Suspend/cancel; then press Select.

2. Choose Cancel temp basal (Figure 3-13), then press Select.

3. Press Confirm to cancel the temporary basal shown on the

screen.

Create a temporary basal preset

1. On the Home screen, use the Up/Down Controller buttons

to choose Settings; then press Select.

2. Choose Presets, then press Select.

3. Choose Temp basal presets, then press Select.

4. Choose [add new], then press New.

5. To use the OmniPod System’s default naming system, simply

press Next. The default naming system automatically assigns

program names in numerical order, such as temp basal 1,

temp basal 2, temp basal 3.

Or, to give a different name to the program:

a. Press the Up/Down Controller buttons to scroll through

the list of characters. An up-and-down-arrow symbol on

the screen indicates the character you are changing.

b. Press the middle soft key to move the underscore to the

next character.

c. Enter each character one at a time. For example, if you

take an aerobics class two nights a week, you might enter

A, e, r, o, b, i, c, s (Figure 3-14). (A blank character or space is

the first and last option in the scrolling menu.)
