# Omnipod Dash These instructions are for configuring the **Omnipod DASH** generation pump **(NOT Omnipod Eros)**, available in **AAPS** from version 3.0. ## Spécifications de DASH Omnipod These are the specifications of the **Omnipod DASH** ('DASH') and what differentiates it from the **Omnipod EROS** ('EROS'): - The DASH pods are identified by a **blue needle cap** (EROS has a clear needle cap). The pods are otherwise identical in terms of physical dimensions. - DASH does not require a BLE link/bridge device (NO RileyLink, OrangeLink, or EmaLink needed). - The DASH's Bluetooth connection is used only when sending a command (e.g a Bolus), and disconnects right after issuing the command. - No more "no connection to link device / pod" errors with DASH. - **AAPS** will wait for pod's accessibility to send commands. - On pod activation, **AAPS** will find and connect to a new DASH pod. - Expected range from phone: 5-10 meters (YMMV). (omnipod-dash-constraints)= ## Omnipod DASH known AAPS constraints/issues - Android 16 requires **AAPS** version 3.3.2.1 or later. - General advice is to run **AAPS** on Android 14 or 16. Android 15 has many reported [issues](https://github.com/nightscout/AndroidAPS/issues/3471) from the community. However, if you do run on Android 15 you will likely need to enable Bluetooth Bonding to successfully activate and use Pods, see [General Troubleshooting](../GettingHelp/GeneralTroubleshooting.md) for more info on the Bonding settings. - Too frequent basal updates may cause basal insulin delivery [problems](https://github.com/nightscout/AndroidAPS/issues/4158) with Omnipod Dash. When using **SMB**, limit the interval to 5 minutes minimum to avoid this issue. - Dash only supports basal rate in 0.05 U/h steps. If you try to set basal with 0.01 steps in your **AAPS profile**, AAPS will not give a warning even though the pod will round up the rate into 0.05 steps. If you view POD MGMT/Pod History it will display that 0.05 basal was set. This also means the lowest basal rate allowed by the DASH in **AAPS** is 0.05U/h. - The activation status of a Pod is stored in the settings file, if you export a settings file with an active pod. Then change to a new pod, then restore the settings from your previous export you will have now restored the old pod activation and removed the new pod activation. This is why we recommend to export settings after each pod activation to allow a restore of that pods activation state if something happens to your rig. - When setting a new basal profile, DASH will suspend delivery before setting the new basal **Profile**. If there is a communication interruption or error, the basal profile won't automatically re-start. See section [Resuming Insulin Delivery](#omnipod-dash-resuming-insulin-delivery) for details. - If alerts are configured, and the pod is about to expire, the pod will keep beeping until alerts are silenced, see [Silencing Pod Alerts](#omnipod-dash-silencing-pod-alerts) for details. - There are a number of known issues with Bluetooth which can cause pod activation problems. See [Bluetooth Troubleshooting](../GettingHelp/BluetoothTroubleshooting.md) for the known issue and solutions to these problems. (hardware-software-requirements)= (omnipod-dash-hardware-software-requirements)= ## Configuration matérielle et logicielle requise - Omnipod DASH is identified by the blue needle cap. ![Omnipod Pod](../images/DASH_images/Omnipod_Pod.png) - **A Compatible Android phone** with a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) (see [Phones](../Getting-Started/Phones.md) for more info), additionally the following information will help guide you on other key considerations around successfully activating and using the DASH on a compatible phone: - The **AAPS** Omnipod Dash driver connects with the DASH Pod using Bluetooth. **AAPS** will automatically establish a new Bluetooth connection to the Pod every time it needs to send a command (e.g a Bolus), after sending the command the Bluetooth connection is immediately disconnected. - **REMARQUE :** - The Bluetooth connection can be interrupted/disturbed by other Bluetooth devices linked to the phone that is running **AAPS**, like earbuds etc... Devices like this can cause connection errors or pod activation issues on some models of phones. It's a good idea to review the [tested hardware setups](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/u/1/d/e/2PACX-1vScCNaIguEZVTVFAgpv1kXHdsHl3fs6xT6RB2Z1CeVJ561AvvqGwxMhlmSHk4J056gMCAQE02sAWJvT/pubhtml?gid=683363241&single=true) list for known working configurations before committing to a new rig built around Omnipod DASH. - There are a number of known issues with Bluetooth which can cause pod activation problems (See [Troubleshooting](#troubleshooting) for advice on other Bluetooth issues) specifically the [Bluetooth related issues](#omnipod-dash-bluetooth-related-issues) section. - For **Android 15** or below: You **MUST** use **Version 3.0 or newer of AAPS** using the [**Build APK**](../SettingUpAaps/BuildingAaps.md) instructions, however it's advisable to run the latest released version. - For **Android 16**: you **MUST** use **Version 3.3.2.1 or newer of AAPS** using the [**Build APK**](../SettingUpAaps/BuildingAaps.md) instructions, due to Android 16 changing how its Bluetooth works. Any version earlier than 3.3.2.1 will likely cause pod failures and/or activation [issues](https://github.com/nightscout/AndroidAPS/issues/3471). - A supported [**Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM)**](../Getting-Started/CompatiblesCgms.md) The instructions below explain how to activate a new pod session using **AAPS**. You should wait for your current Pod to be close expiry, as you will need to activate a new Pod with **AAPS**. Once a pod is de-activated it cannot be reused/re-activated, the de-activation is final. ## Avant de commencer Ensure you have read and understand this whole guide, have read and understand the **Before You Begin** section, as well as **[Omnipod and AAPS Constraints and Issues](#omnipod-dash-constraints)** to avoid running into a known problem. ### **SAFETY FIRST** - You **SHOULD NOT** try to connect **AAPS** to a pod for the first time without having access to all of the following: 1. Extra pods (3 or more spare) 2. Spare Insulin and MDI equipment 3. A working Omnipod PDM (In case **AAPS** fails) 4. Supported Phones are a must! (See [Hardware/Software Requirements](#hardware-software-requirements)) 5. Correct version of AAPS built and installed ### **Your Omnipod Dash PDM will become redundant after the AAPS Dash driver activates your pod.** - Before using **AAPS** you or your care giver would have had to manage the Pod using the Omnipod PDM (or in some regions a Phone app) to send commands to your DASH (e.g a Bolus). - The DASH can only facilitate a single Bluetooth device (e.g PDM or Phone) connection to manage and send commands. - The device that successfully activates the pod is the only device allowed to communicate with that Pod from that point forward. This means that once you activate a DASH with your Android phone using **AAPS**, **you will no longer be able to use your PDM with that pod!** For the time that Pod is active the **AAPS** Dash driver running on your Android phone is now the new PDM for your pod. - **DO NOT Throw away your PDM!** It is recommended to keep it around as a backup and for emergencies, for instance when your phone gets lost or **AAPS** is not working correctly. ### Your pod **WILL NOT** stop delivering insulin when it is not connected to AAPS. Default basal rates are programmed on the pod on activation as defined in the current active [**Profile**](../SettingUpAaps/YourAapsProfile.md). As long as **AAPS** is operational it will send basal rate adjustment commands that run for a maximum of 120 minutes. When for some reason the pod does not receive any new commands (for instance because communication was lost due to Pod ➜ phone distance) the pod will automatically fall back to default basal rates as defined in your [**Profile**](../SettingUpAaps/YourAapsProfile.md). ### **AAPS Profile(s) do not support 30 minute basal rate time frames** If you are new to **AAPS** and are setting up your basal rate [**Profile**](../SettingUpAaps/YourAapsProfile.md) for the first time, please be aware that basal rates starting on a half-hour basis are not supported. For example, on your Omnipod PDM, if you have a basal rate of 1.1 units which starts at 09:30 and has a duration of 2 hours ending at 11:30, it is not possible replicate this exact basil **Profile** in **AAPS**. You will need to change this 1.1 unit basal rate to a time range of either 9:00-11:00 or 10:00-12:00. Even though the DASH hardware itself supports the 30 minute basal rate **Profile** increments, **AAPS** does NOT support this feature. ### **0U/h Profile basal rates are NOT supported in AAPS** While the DASH does support a zero basal rate, **AAPS** uses multiples of the user's **Profile** basal rate to determine automated treatment; it cannot function with a zero basal rate. Instead a temporary zero basal rate can be achieved through the "Disconnect pump" function, or through a combination of Disable Loop/Temp Basal Rate or Suspend Loop/Temp Basal Rate. **NOTE:** The lowest basal rate allowed by the DASH in **AAPS** is 0.05U/h. ## Selecting Dash in AAPS There are **two** available options to configure Omnipod in **AAPS**: ### Option 1: New installations When installing **AAPS** for the first time, the **Setup Wizard** will guide new users through key features and installation requirements for **AAPS**. Select “DASH” when you reach Pump selection. ![Enable_Dash_1](../images/DASH_images/Enable_Dash/Enable_Dash_1.png) When in doubt you can also select “Virtual Pump” and select “DASH” later, after setting up **AAPS** (See Option 2). (omnipod-dash-option-2-config-builder)= ### Option 2: The Config Builder On an existing installation you can select the **DASH** pump from the Config builder: On the top-left hand corner **hamburger menu** select **Config Builder (1)** ➜ **Pump** ➜ **Dash** ➜ **Settings Gear (3)** by selecting the **radio button (2)** titled **Dash**. Selecting the **checkbox (4)** next to the **Settings Gear (3)** will allow the DASH menu to be displayed as a tab in the **AAPS** interface titled **DASH**. Checking this box will facilitate your access to the DASH commands when using **AAPS**. **NOTE:** A faster way to access the [**Dash settings**](#omnipod-dash-settings) can be found below in the DASH settings section of this document. ![Enable_Dash_3](../images/DASH_images/Enable_Dash/Enable_Dash_3.png) ### Verification of Omnipod Driver Selection To verify that you have selected the DASH in **AAPS**, if you have **checked the box (4)**, **swipe to the left** from the **Overview** tab, where you will now see a **DASH** tab on **AAPS**. If this box is left unchecked, you’ll find the DASH tab in the hamburger menu upper left. ![Enable_Dash_4](../images/DASH_images/Enable_Dash/Enable_Dash_4.jpg) ## Configuration du Dash **Swipe left** to the [**DASH tab**](#omnipod-dash-tab) where you will be able to manage all pod functions (some of these functions are not enabled or visible without an active pod session): ![Refresh_LOGO](../images/DASH_images/Refresh_LOGO.png) 'Refresh' pod connectivity and status, be able to silence pod alarms when the pod beeps ![POD_MGMT_LOGO](../images/DASH_images/POD_MGMT_LOGO.png) 'Pod Management' (Activate, Deactivate, Play test beep, and Pod history) (omnipod-dash-activate-pod)= ### Activate Pod 1. Naviguez vers l'onglet **DASH** et cliquez sur le bouton **POD MGMT (1)** , puis cliquez sur **Activer Pod (2)**. ![Activate_Pod_1](../images/DASH_images/Activate_Pod/Activate_Pod_1.png) ![Activate_Pod_2](../images/DASH_images/Activate_Pod/Activate_Pod_2.png) 2. L'écran **Remplir le pod** s'affiche. Fill a new pod with **at least 80 units** of insulin and listen for two beeps indicating that the pod is ready to be primed. ***NOTE:** When calculating the total amount of insulin you need for 3 days, please take into account that priming the pod will use about 3-10 units.* ![Activate_Pod_3](../images/DASH_images/Activate_Pod/Activate_Pod_3.png) ![Activate_Pod_4](../images/DASH_images/Activate_Pod/Activate_Pod_4.jpg) Ensure that the new pod and the phone running **AAPS** are within close proximity of each other and click the **Next** button. ***NOTE**: if the error message below pops up _'Could not find an available pod for activation'_ (this can happen), do not panic. Click on the **Retry** button. In most situations activation will continue successfully.* ![Activate_Pod_3](../images/DASH_images/Activate_pod_error.png) 3. On the **Initialize Pod** screen, the pod will begin priming (you will hear a click followed by a series of ticking sounds as the pod primes itself). A green checkmark will be shown upon successful priming, and the **Next** button will become enabled. Cliquer sur le bouton **Suivant** pour terminer l'initialisation de l'amorçage du pod et afficher l'écran **Attacher Pod**. ![Activate_Pod_5](../images/DASH_images/Activate_Pod/Activate_Pod_5.jpg) ![Activate_Pod_6](../images/DASH_images/Activate_Pod/Activate_Pod_6.jpg) 4. Next, prepare the infusion site ready to receive the new pod. Wash hands to avoid any risk of infection. Clean the infusion site by either using soap and water or an alcohol wipe to disinfect and let the skin air dry completely before proceeding. If you get skin irritation from the adhesive consider using a Barrier Wipe or Barrier Spray. Remove the pod's blue plastic needle cap. If you see something that sticks out of the pod or it looks unusual, **STOP** the process and start with a new pod. If everything looks **OK**, proceed to take off the white paper backing from the adhesive and stick the pod to the selected site on your body. Une fois terminé, cliquez sur le bouton **Suivant**. ![Activate_Pod_8](../images/DASH_images/Activate_Pod/Activate_Pod_8.jpg) 6. La boîte de dialogue **Attacher Pod** apparaîtra. **click on the OK button ONLY if you are ready to deploy the cannula!** ![Activate_Pod_9](../images/DASH_images/Activate_Pod/Activate_Pod_9.jpg) 7. After pressing **OK**, it may take some time before the DASH responds and inserts the cannula (1-2 minutes maximum). **Be patient!** ***NOTE:** Before the cannula is inserted, it is good practice to pinch the skin near the cannula insertion point. Cela permet une insertion en douceur de l'aiguille et réduira les risques d'occlusions.* ![Activate_Pod_10](../images/DASH_images/Activate_Pod/Activate_Pod_10.png) ![Activate_Pod_11](../images/DASH_images/Activate_Pod/Activate_Pod_11.jpg) 8. A green checkmark is shown on the screen, and the **Next** button becomes available to select upon successful cannula insertion. Click on the **Next** button. ![Activate_Pod_12](../images/DASH_images/Activate_Pod/Activate_Pod_12.jpg) 1. L'écran **Pod activé** s'affiche. Cliquer sur le bouton vert **Terminé**. Félicitations ! You have now started a new pod session. ![Activate_Pod_13](../images/DASH_images/Activate_Pod/Activate_Pod_13.jpg) 2. L'écran de menu **Gestion pod** devrait maintenant afficher le bouton **Activer Pod (1)** *désactivé* et le **Désactiver Pod (2)** bouton *activé*. Ceci est dû au fait qu'un pod est maintenant actif et que vous ne pouvez pas activer un pod supplémentaire sans désactiver d'abord le pod actuellement actif. Cliquez sur le bouton Retour de votre téléphone pour retourner à l'onglet **DASH** qui affichera maintenant les informations du Pod pour votre session active de pod, y compris le débit de basal actuel, le niveau du réservoir de pod, l'insuline délivrée, les erreurs de pod et les alertes. ***NOTE:** For more details on the information displayed go to the [**DASH Tab**](#omnipod-dash-tab) section of this document.* ![Activate_Pod_14](../images/DASH_images/Activate_Pod/Activate_Pod_14.png) ![Activate_Pod_15](../images/DASH_images/Activate_Pod/Activate_Pod_15.jpg) ***NOTE:** It is good practice to export settings AFTER activating the pod. Settings should be exported after each pod change and once a month, ensure you copy the exported settings file to a cloud storage location (e.g. Google Drive) or somewhere off your phone in case you loose your phone (see [**Export settings**](../Maintenance/ExportImportSettings.md)).* (omnipod-dash-deactivate-pod)= ### Deactivate Pod Under normal circumstances, the expected lifetime of a pod is three days (72 hours) and an additional 8 hours after the pod expiration warning for a total of 80 hours of total pod usage. To deactivate a pod (either from expiration or from a pod failure): 1. Go to the **DASH** tab, click on the **POD MGMT (1)** button, on the **Pod Management** screen click on the **Deactivate Pod (2)** button. ![Deactivate_Pod_1](../images/DASH_images/Deactivate_Pod/Deactivate_Pod_1.jpg) ![Deactivate_Pod_2](../images/DASH_images/Deactivate_Pod/Deactivate_Pod_2.png) 2. Sur l'écran **Désactiver Pod** , cliquez sur le bouton **Suivant** pour commencer le processus de désactivation du pod. Vous recevrez un bip de confirmation du pod indiquant une désactivation réussie. ![Deactivate_Pod_3](../images/DASH_images/Deactivate_Pod/Deactivate_Pod_3.jpg) ![Deactivate_Pod_4](../images/DASH_images/Deactivate_Pod/Deactivate_Pod_4.jpg) 3. A green checkmark will be displayed upon successful deactivation. Cliquer sur le bouton **Suivant** pour afficher l'écran désactivé du pod. Vous pouvez maintenant supprimer votre pod car la session active a été désactivée. ![Deactivate_Pod_5](../images/DASH_images/Deactivate_Pod/Deactivate_Pod_5.jpg) 4. Cliquez sur le bouton vert pour retourner à l'écran de **Gestion du Pod**. ![Deactivate_Pod_6](../images/DASH_images/Deactivate_Pod/Deactivate_Pod_6.jpg) 5. Vous êtes maintenant dans le menu **Gestion de pod** ; appuyez sur le bouton retour de votre téléphone pour retourner à l'onglet **DASH**. Verify that the **Pod status:** field displays a **No active Pod** message. ![Deactivate_Pod_2](../images/DASH_images/Deactivate_Pod/Deactivate_Pod_2.png) ![Deactivate_Pod_8](../images/DASH_images/Enable_Dash/Enable_Dash_4.jpg) (omnipod-dash-resuming-insulin-delivery)= ### Resuming Insulin Delivery **NOTE**: During **Profile Switches**, like when using the PDM, AAPS must suspend delivery on the Pod before setting the new basal **Profile**. If communication fails between the suspend and resume commands, then delivery can stay suspended, Read [**Delivery suspended**](#omnipod-dash-delivery-suspended) in the troubleshooting section for more details. When insulin delivery is suspended you will need to issue a command to instruct the active, currently suspended pod to resume insulin delivery. After the command is successfully processed, insulin will resume normal delivery using the current basal rate based on the current time from the active basal **Profile**. The pod will again accept commands for bolus, **TBR**, and **SMB**. 1. Allez à l'onglet **DASH** et assurez-vous que le champ **statut du pod (1)** affiche **SUSPENDU**, puis appuyez sur le bouton **REPRENDRE LA LIVRAISON (2)** pour démarrer le processus pour indiquer au pod actuel de reprendre la distribution normale d'insuline. Un message **REPRENDRE LA LIVRAISON** s'affichera dans le champ **Statut du pod (3)**. ![Resume_1](../images/DASH_images/Resume/Resume_1.jpg) ![Resume_2](../images/DASH_images/Resume/Resume_2.jpg) 2. Lorsque la commande de reprise de livraison est réussie, une boîte de dialogue de confirmation affichera le message **La livraison d'insuline a été reprise**. Cliquez sur **OK** pour confirmer et continuer. ![Resume_3](../images/DASH_images/Resume/Resume_3.png) 3. L'onglet **DASH** mettra à jour le champ **état du pod (1)** pour afficher **En cours d'exécution,** et le bouton **Reprendre la distribution** ne sera plus affichés ![Resume_4](../images/DASH_images/Resume/Resume_4.jpg) (omnipod-dash-silencing-pod-alerts)= ### Silencing Pod Alerts The process below will show you how to acknowledge and dismiss pod beeps when the active pod time reaches the warning time limit before the pod expiration of 72 hours (3 days). This warning time limit is defined in the **Hours before shutdown** Dash alerts setting. The maximum life of a pod is 80 hours (3 days 8 hours), however Insulet recommends not exceeding the 72 hours (3 days) limit. ***NOTE**: The **SILENCE ALERTS (3)** button is only available on the **DASH** tab when the pod expiration or low reservoir alert has been triggered. If the **SILENCE ALERTS** button is not visible and you hear beep sounds from the pod, try to 'Refresh pod status'.* 1. When the defined **Hours before shutdown** warning time limit is reached, the pod will issue warning beeps to inform you that it is approaching its expiration time and a pod change will be required soon. You can verify this on the **DASH** tab, the **Pod expires: (1)** field will show the exact time the pod will expire (72 hours after activation), and the text will turn **red** after this time has passed. Under the **Active Pod alerts (2)** field the status message **Pod will expire soon** is displayed. This also will trigger displaying the **SILENCE ALERTS (3)** button. ![ACK_alerts_1](../images/DASH_images/ACK_Alerts/ACK_ALERTS_1.png) 2. Go to the **DASH** tab and press the **SILENCE ALERTS (2)** button. **AAPS** sends the command to the pod to deactivate the pod expiration warning beeps and updates the **Pod status (1)** field with **ACKNOWLEDGE ALERTS**. ![ACK_alerts_2](../images/DASH_images/ACK_Alerts/ACK_ALERTS_2.png) 3. Upon **successful deactivation** of the alerts, **2 beeps** will be issued by the active pod and a confirmation dialog will display the message **Activate alerts have been Silenced**. Cliquez sur le bouton **OK** pour confirmer et fermer la boîte de dialogue. ![ACK_alerts_3](../images/DASH_images/ACK_Alerts/ACK_ALERTS_3.png) 4. Allez dans l'onglet **DASH**. Sous le champ **Alertes du Pod actif** , le message d'alerte n'est plus affiché, et le pod actif n'émettra plus de beeps d'expiration du pod. (omnipod-dash-view-pod-history)= ### View Pod History This section explains how to review your active pod history and filter by different action categories. The pod history tool allows you to view the actions and results committed to your currently active pod during its three days (72 - 80 hours) life. This feature is helpful in verifying boluses, TBRs and basal commands that were sent to the pod. The remaining categories are useful for troubleshooting issues and determining the order of events that occurred leading up to a failure. ***NOTE:** **Only the last command can be uncertain**. New commands *will not be sent* until the **last 'uncertain' command becomes 'confirmed' or 'denied'**. The way to 'fix' uncertain commands is to **'refresh pod status'**.* 1. Go to the **DASH** tab and press the **POD MGMT (1)** button to access the **Pod Management** menu and then press the **Pod history (2)** button to access the pod history screen. ![Pod_history_1](../images/DASH_images/Deactivate_Pod/Deactivate_Pod_1.jpg) ![Pod_history_2](../images/DASH_images/Pod_History/Pod_history_2.jpg) 2.

Selecting the **checkbox (4)** next to the **Settings Gear (3)** will allow the Dash menu to be displayed as a tab in the **AAPS** interface titled **DASH**. ![Dash_settings_1](../images/DASH_images/Enable_Dash/Enable_Dash_3.png) ***NOTE:** A faster way to access the **Dash settings** is by accessing the **3 dot menu (1)** in the upper right hand corner of the **DASH** tab and selecting **Dash preferences (2)** from the dropdown menu.* ![Dash_settings_3](../images/DASH_images/Dash_settings/Dash_settings_3.png) The settings groups are listed below; you can enable or disable via a toggle switch for most entries described below: ***NOTE:** An asterisk (\*) denotes the default setting is enabled.* ### Confirmation beeps ![Dash_settings_4](../images/DASH_images/Dash_settings/Dash_settings_4.jpg) Provides confirmation beeps from the pod for bolus, basal, SMB, and TBR delivery and changes. **Bolus beeps enabled:** Enable or disable confirmation beeps when a bolus is delivered. **Basal beeps enabled:** Enable or disable confirmation beeps when a new basal rate is set, active basal rate is canceled or current basal rate is changed. **SMB beeps enabled:** Enable or disable confirmation beeps when a SMB is delivered. **TBR beeps enabled:** Enable or disable confirmation beeps when a TBR is set or canceled. ### Alerts ![Dash_settings_5](../images/DASH_images/Dash_settings/Dash_settings_5.jpg) Provides **AAPS** alerts for pod expiration, shutdown, low reservoir based on the defined threshold units. ***NOTE:** an AAPS notification will ALWAYS be issued for any alert after the initial communication with the pod since the alert was triggered. Dismissing the notification will NOT dismiss the alert UNLESS automatically acknowledge Pod alerts is enabled. To MANUALLY dismiss the alert you must visit the **DASH** tab and press the **Silence ALERTS button**.* **Expiration reminder enabled:** Enable or disable the pod expiration reminder set to trigger when the defined number of hours before shutdown is reached. **Hours before shutdown:** Defines the number hours before the active pod shutdown occurs, which will then trigger the expiration reminder alert. **Low reservoir alert enabled:** Enable or disable an alert when the pod's remaining units low reservoir limit is reached as defined in the Number of units field. **Number of units:** The number of units at which to trigger the pod low reservoir alert. ### Notifications ![Dash_settings_6](../images/DASH_images/Dash_settings/Dash_settings_6.jpg) The Notification section allows the user to select their preferred notifications and audible phone alerts when AAPS is uncertain about the status of TBR, SMB, or bolus, and when delivery suspended events were successful. ***NOTE:** These are notifications only, no audible beep alerts are made.* **Sound for uncertain TBR notifications enabled:** Enable or disable this setting to trigger an audible alert and visual notification when **AAPS** is uncertain if a TBR was successfully set. **Sound for uncertain SMB notifications enabled:** Enable or disable this setting to trigger an audible alert and visual notification when **AAPS** is uncertain if an SMB was successfully delivered. **Sound for uncertain bolus notifications enabled:** Enable or disable this setting to trigger an audible alert and visual notification when **AAPS** is uncertain if a bolus was successfully delivered. **Sound when delivery suspended notifications enabled:** Enable or disable this setting to trigger an audible alert and visual notification when suspend delivery was successfully delivered. ## Onglet Actions (ACT) This tab is well documented in the main **AAPS** documentation but there are a few items on this tab that are specific to how the DASH differs from tube based pumps, especially after the processes of applying a new pod. 1. Go to the **Actions (ACT)** tab in the main **AAPS** interface. 2. Under the **Careportal (1)** section the **Insulin** and **Cannula** fields will have their **age reset** to 0 days and 0 hours **after each pod change**. C'est dû à la façon dont la pompe Omnipod est construite et opérationnelle. Puisque le pod insère la canule directement dans la peau au niveau du site d'application pod, il n'y a pas de tubulure traditionnelle dans les pompes Omnipod. *Par conséquent, après un changement de pod, l'âge de chacune de ces valeurs sera automatiquement réinitialisé à zéro.* **L'âge de la pile pompe** n'est pas indiqué car la durée de vie de la pile du pod sera toujours plus grande que celle du pod (maximum 80 heures). La **pile de la pompe** et le **réservoir d'insuline** sont intégrés à l'intérieur de chaque pod. ![ACT_1](../images/DASH_images/Actions_Tab/ACT_1.png) ### Level **Insulin Level** Insulin level displayed is the amount reported by DASH. However, the pod only reports the actual insulin reservoir level when it is below 50 units. Until then “Above 50 units” will be displayed. The amount reported is not exact: when the pod reports ‘empty’ in most cases the reservoir will still have some additional units of insulin left. The DASH overview tab will display as described the below: * **Above 50 Units** - The pod reports more than 50 units currently in the reservoir. * **Below 50 Units** - The amount of insulin remaining in the reservoir as reported by the Pod. Additional note: * **SMS** - Renvoie la valeur ou 50+U pour les réponses SMS * **Nightscout** - Envoie la valeur 50 vers Nightscout s'il y a plus de 50 unités (version 14,07 et plus). Les nouvelles versions afficheront la valeur de plus de 50+ si au-dessus de 50 unités. (omnipod-dash-troubleshooting)= ## Troubleshooting (omnipod-dash-delivery-suspended)= This section covers common known issues and solutions for Omnipod DASH use with AAPS. There is also [General Troubleshooting](../GettingHelp/GeneralTroubleshooting.md) section in the documentation that should be reviewed as it covers relevant topics for some Pod issues too. --- (omnipod-dash-bluetooth-related-issues)= ## **Bluetooth related issues** For known issues with Bluetooth connections, dropouts of pump/pods, or activation and connection issues [Bluetooth Troubleshooting](../GettingHelp/BluetoothTroubleshooting.md) --- ### Delivery suspended - There is no suspend button anymore. If you want to "suspend" the pod, you can set a zero **TBR** for x minutes. - During **Profile Switches**, DASH must suspend delivery before setting the new basal **Profile**. If communication fails between the two commands, then delivery can stay suspended. When this happens: - There will be no insulin delivery, that includes Basal, SMB, Manual bolusing etc. - There might be notification that one of the commands is unconfirmed: this depends on when the failure happened. - **AAPS** will try to set the new basal profile every 15 minutes. - **AAPS** will show a notification informing that the delivery is suspended every 15 minutes, if the delivery is still suspended (resume delivery failed). - The [**Resume delivery**](#omnipod-dash-resuming-insulin-delivery) button will be active if the user chooses to resume delivery manually. - If **AAPS** fails to resume delivery on its own (this happens if the pod is unreachable, sound is muted, etc), the pod will start beeping 4 times every minute for 3 minutes, then repeated every 15 minutes if delivery is still suspended for more than 20 minutes. - For unconfirmed commands, "refresh pod status" should confirm/deny them. *****NOTE:** When you hear beeps from the pod, do not assume that delivery will continue without checking the phone, delivery might stay suspended, ***so you need to check !****** --- ### Pod Failures - Pods fail occasionally due to a variety of issues, including hardware issues with the Pod itself. - It is best practice not to raise support / replacement cases with Insulet, since AAPS is not an approved method of using the Pods. - A list of fault codes can be [**found here**](https://github.com/openaps/openomni/wiki/Fault-event-codes) to help determine the cause. --- ### Preventing error 49 pod failures This failure is related to an incorrect pod state for a command or an error during an insulin delivery command. This is when the driver and Pod disagree on the actual state. The Pod (out of a built-in safety measure) then reacts with an unrecoverable error code 49 (0x31) ending up with what is know as a “screamer”: the long irritating beep that can only be stopped by punching a hole at the appropriate location at the back of the Pod. The exact origin of a “49 pod failure” often is hard to trace. In situations that are suspected for this failure to occur (for instance on application crashes, running a development version or re-installation). --- ### Pump Unreachable Alerts When no communication can be established with the pod for a pre-configured time a “Pump unreachable” alert will be raised. Pump unreachable alerts can be configured by going to the top right-hand side three-dot menu, selecting **Preferences** ➜ **Local Alerts** ➜ **Pump unreachable threshold [min]**. Recommended value is alerting after **120** minutes. --- ### Export Settings Exporting **AAPS** settings enables you to restore all your settings, and maybe more importantly, all your Objectives. You may need to restore settings to the “last known working situation” or after uninstalling/reinstalling **AAPS** or in case of phone loss, reinstalling on the new phone. ***NOTE:** The active pod information is included in the exported settings. If you import an "old" exported file, your actual pod will "die". There is no other alternative. In some cases (like a _programmed_ phone change), you may need to use the exported file to restore **AAPS'** settings **while keeping the current active Pod**. In this case it is important to only use the recently exported settings file containing the pod currently active.* **It is good practice to do an export immediately after activating a pod**. This way you will always be able to restore the current active pod in case of a problem. For instance when moving to another backup phone. Regularly (after each export preferably) copy your exported settings to a safe place (a cloud drive e.g. Google Drive) that is accessible by any phone when needed. This allows you to restore to a phone from anywhere in case of a phone loss or factory reset of your phone while you are not at home. --- ### Import Settings **WARNING**: Please note that importing settings will possibly import an outdated Pod status (depending when you made the last export/backup). As a result, there is a **risk of losing the active Pod!** (see **Exporting Settings**). 1. Only try an import when no other options are available. 2. When importing settings with an active Pod, make sure the export was done with the currently active pod. **Importing while on an active Pod:** (you risk losing the Pod!) 1. **Make sure you are importing settings that were recently exported with the currently active Pod!** 2. Import your settings. 3. Check all preferences. **Importing (no active Pod session)** 1. Importing any recent export should work (see above) 2. Import your settings. 3. Check all preferences. 4. You may need to **Deactivate** the "non existing" pod if the imported settings included any active pod data. --- ### Importing settings that contain Pod state from an inactive Pod When importing settings containing data for a Pod that is no longer active, AAPS will try to connect with it, which will obviously fail. You can not activate a new Pod in this situation. To remove the old pod session: 1. “try” to de-activate the Pod. The de-activation will likely fail. 2. Select “Retry”. 3. After the second or third retry you will get the option to remove the pod. 4. Once the old pod is removed you will be able to activate a new pod. ### Generic error: java.lan.illegalStateException: Trying to set a Bluetooth Address to ***, but it is already set to ***. If you receive this error when attempting to Initialize a new pod **AAPS** fails as it still has settings for an old pod stored in configuration. ![omnipod_address_in_use](../images/DASH_images/Errors/omnipod_address_in_use.png) This can happen if you restore from a backup, or a pod deactivation fails. To resolve keep clicking on `RETRY` until a `Discard` option is shown, then discard. This procedure should work for De-Activating a pod too. You should now be able to Activate a new pod. --- ### Reinstalling AAPS When uninstalling **AAPS** you will lose all your settings, objectives and the current Pod session. **To restore them make sure you have a recent exported settings file available!** When on an active Pod, make sure that you have an export for the current pod session or you will lose the currently active pod when importing older settings. 1. Export your settings and store a copy in a safe place (e.g Google Drive). 2. Uninstall **AAPS** and restart your phone. 3. Install the new version of **AAPS**. 4. Import your settings. 5. Verify all preferences (optionally import settings again). 6. Activate a new pod. 7. When done: Export current settings. --- ### Updating AAPS to a newer version In most cases there is no need to uninstall. You can do an “in-place” install by starting the installation for the new version. This is also possible when on an active Pod session. 1. Exporter les paramètres. 2. Install the new **AAPS** version. 3. Verify the installation was successful 4. RESUME the Pod or activate a new pod. 5. When done: Export current settings. --- ### Omnipod driver alerts The Omnipod Dash driver presents a variety of unique alerts on the **Overview tab**, most of them are informational and can be dismissed while some provide the user with an action requiring their input to resolve the cause of the triggered alert. A summary of the main alerts that you may encounter is listed below: - Aucune session de Pod actif détectée. Cette alerte peut être temporairement rejetée en appuyant sur **REPORT ALARME** mais elle se déclenchera tant qu'un nouveau pod n'a pas été activé. Une fois activé, cette alerte disparait automatiquement. - Pod suspended Informational alert that pod has been suspended. - Setting basal **Profile** failed : Delivery might be suspended! Veuillez actualiser manuellement l'état du Pod à partir de l'onglet Omnipod et reprendre l'injection si nécessaire.. Informational alert that the Pod basal **Profile** setting has failed, and you will need to hit *Refresh* on the Omnipod tab. - Unable to verify whether **SMB** bolus succeeded. Si vous êtes sûr que le Bolus n'a pas réussi, vous devez supprimer manuellement l'entrée SMB dans les traitements. Alert that the **SMB** bolus command success could not be verified, you will need to verify the *Last bolus* field on the DASH tab to see if **SMB** bolus succeeded and if not remove the entry from the Treatments tab. - Incertain si l'action "Bolus/DBT/SMB" est terminée, merci de vérifier manuellement s'il a réussi.
