Program basal rates
Your Basal Rate provides you with approximately 50 percent of your daily
insulin needs. A Basal Rate is normally delivered all the time, throughout the
day and night. Your PPC allows you to tailor your Basal Rates to meet your
changing insulin needs throughout the day. If you want to, the PPC can
deliver a different Basal Rate every 30 minutes throughout the day. For some
people, one Basal Rate will work fine. Other people find that multiple Basal
Rates will help them respond better to their insulin needs. You should discuss
with your doctor the number and amount of Basal Rates that are best for you.
Set one basal rate
1. From the Time/Date screen press SEL until
the “BASAL RATE” screen is displayed.
Basal Delivery Pattern “A” and the current
Basal Rate appear. The word “NOW” also
