■ Set Diagnostic Functions
The Diagnostics screen allows you to instantly confirm how the
System is working or to completely update settings entered dur-
ing setup (see Chapter 2, Getting Started). Options include:
Check alarms: Confirms that all alarms work properly when
needed. When you select this function, the PDM beeps and
vibrates, then the Pod beeps.
Reset PDM (soft reset): Restores all settings in the PDM to the
factory defaults.
If you choose On, other PDM options and most
other soft keys are locked and will not respond to
button presses. To use them, you must first set PDM
lock to Off.
The lowest setting will drain the battery the least.
If the PDM fails to beep, immediately call Customer
Care. If a Pod is active and fails to beep, change the
Pod immediately (see Chapter 5, Using the Pod).
Continuing to use the System in these situations
may put your health and safety at risk.
Resetting the PDM deletes all basal programs, temp
basal presets, carb presets, bolus presets, and all sug-
gested bolus settings. Before you use this feature
and delete these settings, be sure you have a written
record of the information you need. History records
will not be deleted.
As a safety feature, you cannot reset the PDM when a
Pod is active. You must first deactivate the Pod.
