What happens when the transmitter and insulin pump move out of range?
If the transmitter and insulin pump are too far apart (about 6 feet or 2 meters), an alert will sound and either a “WEAK SIGNAL” or “LOST SENSOR” message will appear on the screen. The MiniMed Paradigm® REAL-Time Insulin Pump and Continuous Glucose Monitoring System allows the user to set the period of time the insulin pump will wait before alerting you of a failed reception of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) data from the transmitter to the insulin pump. The delay can be set for anywhere from 5 minutes to 40 minutes. The default setting is 30 minutes.
