Setting up the transmitter

For instructions on setting up your transmitter, see the user guide for your pump.
Connecting the transmitter to the sensor
Before connecting the transmitter and sensor, make sure of the following:
• The transmitter is fully charged.
• Consult the user guide for your pump for details on setting up and starting the
sensor.
• Insert the sensor.
• The sensor insertion site is not bleeding.
To connect the transmitter to the sensor:
1 After the sensor is inserted, apply the Enlite
serter user guide for details on applying Enlite overtape.
2 Hold the rounded end of the inserted sensor to prevent it from moving during
connection.
3 Hold the transmitter as shown. Line up the two notches on the
transmitter with the side arms of the sensor. The flat side of the
transmitter should face the skin.
4 Slide the transmitter onto the sensor connector until the snaps
of the sensor arms click into the notches on the transmitter. If
the transmitter is properly connected, and if the sensor has had
enough time to become hydrated, the green light on the
transmitter will flash within 10 seconds.
5 If the transmitter light does not flash, disconnect it from the sensor, wait for several
seconds and then reconnect. If the transmitter light still does not flash, charge the
transmitter.
6 After the transmitter light flashes green, attach the sensor's adhesive tab to the
transmitter.
7 Use your pump to communicate with the sensor. For more instructions, see the user
guide for your pump.
8 Check your serter user guide to see if occlusive dressing is needed.
