CHAPTER 8
Understanding Your Records
Record Keeping
Record keeping is an important part of successful diabetes man-
agement. The Personal Diabetes Manager (PDM) helps simplify 
this task. It automatically stores records of insulin delivery history, 
blood glucose readings, alarms and carbohydrates. The PDM can 
store over 5,000 records or approximately 90 days’ worth of infor-
mation. Once the memory is full, new information begins to 
replace the oldest information.
Special symbols in record screens
In the record screens, you may encounter several special symbols:
If the PDM batteries run out, date and time are at risk. 
Do NOT remove the old batteries until you have new 
ones on hand. The PDM protects data in the mem-
ory for up to 2 hours after the batteries run out or are 
removed.
Records with a question-mark symbol next to them have 
additional information available. To see this information, use 
the Up/Down Controller buttons to highlight the record, 
then press the User Info/Support button to view details 
about that record.
The record for this item has been “lost.”
If the PDM can no longer communicate with an 
active Pod, then you must activate a new Pod. The 
PDM may not be able to communicate with the 
active Pod because of signal interference or because 
you have discarded the Pod. If you change the Pod 
without getting a Status update, any “unconfirmed” 
records will be “lost.” If this occurs, the PDM will not 
display insulin totals for any day containing “lost” 
records.
