[QUOTE="Scott-C, post: 1957094, member: 374531"] What I tend to do is activate the new sensor to start its hour warm-up, and blucon will still be running happily on the old sensor during that time (activating the new sensor won't kill the old one, blucon will carry on reading it juat fine, but you'll obviously not be able to scan the old sensor with the reader as it's now associated with the new sensor), then, once the new sensor hour warm-up is done, I just take the blucon off the old one and put it on the new one and it'll pick up on the next 5 min read. As it's a new sensor, the calibration table from the old sensor won't mean a lot, so I'll reset all calibrations and calibrate it anew. I don't think the start time makes much difference with blucon - that's more a dexcom thing. Even if I don't tell it the start time, the sensor age still appears ok on the graph. [/QUOTE]
