UPS had tried to deliver while I was at school, so I made arrangements to pick it up from the local UPS center, about 5 miles from the house.<\/p>\n
They have an interesting system, they have everyone who is picking up packages come in the building and they start calling names — mine was the second name called that had a person, and about the 10th name called.<\/p>\n
The first thing I did was to pop a battery in the pump. Man, the screen is extremely bright, but then again, I have it set on constrast 7 (I just thought of that), and it is much easier to read.<\/p>\n
The first disappointment came when I tried to upload my pump settings. My current version of EzManager doesn’t work with the new pump for setup — though that makes sense because the set up screens are different. Of course that just occured to me.<\/p>\n
I do wish I had a way to program the pump remotely — it took a good 20 minutes to program mys settings. <\/p>\n
I’m not sure if I can download anything until the new software comes — I tried, but it seemed to stop at 40%. Anyone know when they are shipping?<\/p>\n
The package they sent is the standard, new pump package, with a sample of the comfort and inset infusion sets, IV prep and IV Barrier tape. Also shipped with a cartridge. extra battery cap, leather case, and a new Animas medallion. <\/p>\n
I really like the new programming options — you can now program your own times (with 30 minute increments) for ISF and for Corrections. I’m trying something different — the time frames I usually eat, I’m using my Symlin settings so I don’t have to do as much math. Right now, I eat lunch after 12:30 so from 12:30 to 1:00 I have it programmed to do a 20 ISF instead of a 10. I’m also trying to find a way to enter the carbs without putting in a ISF for my evening timeframe, since I don’t need bolus insulin them.<\/p>\n
I’m still trying to figure out if entering Carbs in the evening but no insulin will let me log though carbs, and I might not know what until the new version of EzManager comes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
