[QUOTE="Henry_Sugar, post: 2595134, member: 74520"] Hi all, Have been on this closed loop system since Nov 2022, and all in all am very impressed!! For the last 30 days I'm 83% in range (+3.9 / -10.0mmol/L) and my average blood sugar reading is 4.5mmol/L. That's assuming I'm reading the tech correctly....... Yes, the 2 bits of tape you need to attach to the sensor is virtually impossible, if doing by yourself (I find the Patchinga coverings to be great) but that's a minor gripe. So I've finally started walking 10,000 / 12,000 steps a day with no blood level issues, but now I want to start doing some proper exercise, nothing extreme just 30 minutes on my cross trainer. In the past I'd take extra carbs "to cover" the exercise, but if I do that now the SmartGuard software will give me extra insulin to take my blood sugar levels back down. Therefore I will need to use the "Temp Target" on the pump. For those who don't know, it attempts to keep you blood sugar level at 8.3 mmol/L instead of 5.5 / 6.1 / 6.7 depending on your pump settings. So I'm just looking for anybodies experience using the Temp Target feature? Set it and do nothing else ? Nothing but issues ? Needed tweaking somehow ? Many thanks in advance, to anybody taking the time to reply...... [/QUOTE]
