Normal bolus using Bolus Wizard feature
After the Bolus Wizard feature is turned on and programmed, this feature can calculate an estimate
of insulin you need for your correction bolus and/or your food bolus. You have the option of using the
estimate or changing it as necessary. Additionally, your pump can receive your blood glucose readings
from the Paradigm Link meter, if they are linked.
Use to deliver a normal bolus at any time except during another Normal bolus. A normal bolus
will temporarily interrupt a Square Wave or Dual Wave bolus that is delivering. After the normal bolus is
finished, the Square Wave or Dual Wave bolus delivery will resume.
NOTE - If you want to use the pump-to-meter link, make sure the meter option is on. See “Meter
option” on page 73 for instructions.

amount. (You can change
this BG value, if
necessary.) Continue to step

minutes of the pump receiving the reading from
the meter. If more than 12 minutes have
passed, the reading will no longer be available
from the screen and you must enter your blood
glucose manually.
