15About Automated Mode
available, for example, when using your rst Pod or your rst Pod aer a pump
break of more than a few weeks, the Pod uses your Basal Program as a base for
calculations.
All of your insulin delivery history is stored in your Omnipod 5 app and is
available to your new Pod when you change your Pod. If you reset or replace the
Omnipod 5 app, your adaptive basal rate will be based on your Basal Program
until 48 hours of data from your new Pod is passed to the next Pod at Pod change.
15.5. About Automated Mode: Limited
Warning: If you notice that your CGM value does not match your symptoms,
check your blood glucose using a BG meter and consider treatment and/or
CGM sensor calibration if necessary. Follow the guidance of your healthcare
provider for proper blood glucose monitoring to avoid hyperglycemia or
hypoglycemia.
At times, your Pod and CGM may lose connection while you are in Automated
Mode. ere are several reasons this could happen, including the Pod and CGM
not being within line of sight on your body, temporary loss of communication
due to environmental interference, sensor warm-up, or required calibration.
When this occurs, the Omnipod 5 algorithm can no longer fully adjust your
automated insulin delivery because the Pod is not receiving updated glucose
values from the CGM. Aer 20 minutes of the Pod not receiving CGM values, the
Omnipod 5 app will display ‘Limited’ on the Home screen.
e System also enters Limited state aer receiving the Automated Delivery
Restriction Advisory alarm. For more information on Automated Delivery
Restriction, see page 200.
Once 1 hour has passed without CGM values, the Missing CGM Values advisory
alarm will be presented. You can switch to Manual Mode at any time to receive
your scheduled Basal Program, to start a temp basal, or to manually pause insulin.
When the System enters Limited state, the Omnipod 5 algorithm will never give
more than your Basal Program that would be active during Manual Mode. Aer
an hour of missed CGM values, you will receive a steady rate of insulin that will
not vary until CGM connection is restored.
You may also choose to switch to Manual Mode to start your Basal Program. See
"14.2. Switching from Automated Mode to Manual Mode" on page 137.
Note: Check your DexcomG6 app to see if there are any CGM actions that you
need to take to re-establish communication. See your DexcomG6 User Guide.
Note: Automated Mode: Limited state can occur due to a loss of communication
between the CGM and Pod. It is possible that your DexcomG6 app is still
receiving CGM values. Open your DexcomG6 app to check.
