Medtronic 780g with simplera sync


When in smart guard If you have the app installed you can see the increases and decreases in basal symbolised by pink at the top of the graph but no easy way to see the immediate basal level you don’t really need to as the pump adjusts it every 5 minutes

If your sensor failed earlier than expected you can order a replacement in the WeCare app

I would typically fit a sensor right away to be back in smartgaurd within 2 hours
 
Thanks searley, thanks for your reply. Unfortunately as it was during the night, I left it until the morning. It’s all running now this sensor will go the 7 days.
 
Do you get loss of signal a fair bit. Yesterday I was out at my daughters and the system kept losing signal.

No, only if I leave the room that my phone is in, infact very often I have perfectly good signal phone in 1 room me in the other
Any phone connection issues will probably be poor Bluetooth in the phone Samsung are know for buggy Bluetooth


As for pump to simplera not had a single issue
 
Have you been able to get any replacement Simplera Sync sensors?

You may well struggle to get any replacements or they may be delayed. I received an email this morning to say they were pausing the rollout of the update to current 780g users as there is a delay in manufacturing the sensors
 
Really interested @searley if you’re having trouble getting hold of simplera sync sensors.
 
My last set are on back order, but when my supplies were delivered I still had 4 months worth in the cupboard

So even if I have to wait a month or so I will be ok
 
Hope Medtronic increase the number manufactured, and soon

I’m getting old and have eye issues so miss the odd autocorrect until I go back and reread
 
From one oldie to another, just keep on rocking.
I did autocorrect, embarrassed that I’d thought you were in the States.

Hey @searley I have one question regarding 780g software version in order to use Simplera Sync .. When I go to my 780g Device Info .. I have Hardware A1.01, Software 6.7V and Model MMT-1885 .. will this work with Simplera Sync .. what is the version of your 780g ?
Thanks in advance
 


Might be a better question for Medtronic
 
Thanks a lot for the information .. I guess I am contacting them .. thanks again

Just looked at my device Medtronic 780 using with Simplera and my device is showing the same info , so hopefully all will be good , I love the Simplera sensors hated libre but dexacom were good
 
It may be easy to apply but for quite a few of us the libre’s forty-eight to sixty-two hours’ settling in time and inaccuracies is a little more than merely frustrating
