Reading Your Device Screen
Your device screen shows 5 lines of text at one time. The first is the operating mode. The second is the current open menu or function. The last 3 lines show either information or text that you can select for the current function.
Note
The screens in the examples here might not exactly match your screen.
Battery Icon
Device: 523/723 (Revel), 522/722, Guardian, 515/715
The battery icon tells you how much usable life is left in your battery. There are 4 segments in the icon. Each segment represents approximately 25 percent of the usable battery life you have left until you reach Low Battery point. So if you only have 1 segment left, make sure you have a new battery available.
Time Display
Device: 523/723 (Revel), 522/722, Guardian, 515/715
The current time of day is displayed across the top of the screen in the format you select—12-hour or 24-hour. The AM or PM is only displayed for the 12-hour format.
Reservoir Volume
Device: 523/723 (Revel), 522/722, 515/715
The reservoir volume icon tells you how much insulin is in your pump. This icon is divided into 4 segments. Each segment represents approximately 25 percent of the reservoir volume you have left. This allows you to be aware of how much insulin you have left in your pump.
Did You Know
For the Paradigm 700-series insulin pump, your reservoir icon will only appear full if using a filled 300-unit Paradigm reservoir. The icon will not appear full if you use the 176-unit Paradigm reservoir.
Alert & Alarm Icons
Device: 523/723 (Revel), 522/722, Guardian, 515/715, 512/712
An open circle (alert) is displayed in the upper part of your screen only when a special feature is active or an alert condition exists. Your device will also beep or vibrate periodically to remind you of the condition.
Special mode does not restrict any of the device functions. The conditions and features that put your device in Special mode are:
Low Reservoir alert
Low Battery alert
Block feature is turned on
Dual or Square Wave bolus delivery
Sensor alerts
Alert Silence is active
A solid circle (alarm) is displayed in the upper part of your screen when there is an alarm condition requiring your immediate attention.
Warning
When an insulin pump is in Attention mode, showing a solid circle icon, all insulin deliveries are stopped.
In Attention mode, your device will beep periodically until either the device is taken out of Suspend mode or the alarm condition is cleared. The screen will show text describing the condition that put the device in Attention mode. For example, if the reservoir is empty, EMPTY RESERVOIR will appear on the screen.
Sensor Icons
Device: 523/723 (Revel), 522/722, Guardian
A dark sensor icon means that the sensor is on and your insulin pump or CGM monitor is receiving sensor data.
A light-colored sensor icon with a dark circle around it means that the sensor is on, but your insulin pump or CGM monitor is not receiving sensor data.
