Yes you can have different I/C Ratios in Manual Mode

CAN YOU BOLUS FROM THE CONTOUR NEXT LINK 2.4 METER?

Yes, in Manual Mode only

WHICH CURRENT FAST ACTING ANALOGS ARE APPROVED FOR THE PUMP?

Novalog™ and Humalog™.

CAN THE PATIENT BOLUS BASED ON THE SENSOR TRACING INSTEAD OF A BG WHILE USING THE BOLUS WIZARD (DURING SNACKING)?

No, the system is not labeled to bolus based on a sensortracing or sensor value.

DOES THE BOLUS CALCULATOR NEED BOTH THE GRAMS OF CARBS AND BLOOD GLUCOSE VALUE TO BOLUS OR CAN YOU JUST ENTER CARBS?

You can enter Carbs only if using the bolus calculator.

ON SUSPEND BEFORE LOW, CAN THE 30 MINUTES BE MODIFIED?

No, it cannot be edited.

ON SUSPEND BEFORE LOW, CAN THE LOW LIMIT BE SET IN THE PROFILE BASED ON TIME LIKE THRESHOLD SUSPEND TODAY?

Yes, the user can set up different thresholds for different times of the day.

DOES SUSPEND BEFORE LOW TAKE INTO ACCOUNT ACTIVE INSULIN FOR THE PREDICTION?

No, It only predicts a low based on the readings from the sensor.

FOR THE SUSPEND BEFORE LOW FEATURE, HOW MANY CYCLES OF SUSPEND DOES THE PRODUCT ALLOW?

It will allow for ongoing suspends as along as the sensor is calibrated. However, there is the 30 min refractory period after each Suspend before low, at which time another suspension cannot occur.
