your the STS-7 Sensor has notied the STS
R2 Receiver that STS-7 Sensor is no longer

STS Sensor Removal
If the STS-7 System is not displaying
glucose values it could be for the following
reasons:
™
Your STS™ T2 Transmitter and STS R2
Receiver are not communicating. The
Antenna Icon will appear in the upper
right hand corner of the screen (there is no
Antenna Icon (Y) in the bottom right hand
corner of the screen). Make sure your STS
R2 Receiver and STS T2 Transmitter are
within 5 ft. of each other.
1.
If you upload a ngerstick to update
calibration you may see the Calibration
Update Screen due to the ngerstick not
closely matching your STS-7 System
glucose readings. Take a ngerstick and
upload it to the STS R2 Receiver to update
calibration.
3.
Your STS-7 Sensor is sending the STS
R2 Receiver “noisy” glucose readings
that the STS R2 Receiver will not display.
2.
Once the “noise” stops, your STS R2 Re-
ceiver will display glucose values again.
™
The device may vibrate and/or beep and dis-
play one of the following screens during use:
Always take a ngerstick before you make any
treatment decisions.
Calibration Update Screen: If the Calibration
Update Screen appears you should clear the
prompt, take a ngerstick using your meter,
and upload the meter value to the STS R2
Receiver.

1. Calibration Update Screen
Low Glucose Alert: The STS R2 Receiver
will vibrate/beep if your current STS-7 Sen-
sor glucose value is below the Low Alert
setting. Press any button on the STS R2
Receiver to acknowledge the alert; if you
do not the STS R2 Receiver will continue
to alert you for the next 10 minutes. The
Factory Low Alert setting is 80 mg/dL. You
should work with your diabetes management
team to determine the best alert setting for
you. (Take a ngerstick before you make
any treatment decisions.)

2. Low Glucose Alert
High Glucose Alert: The STS R2 Receiver
will beep/vibrate if your current STS-7 Sen-
sor glucose value is above the High Alert
setting. Press any button on the STS R2
Receiver to acknowledge the alert; if you
do not the STS R2 Receiver will continue to
alert you for the next 10 minutes. The Fac-
tory High Alert setting is 200 mg/dL. You
should work with your diabetes management
team to determine the best alert setting for
you. (Take a ngerstick before you make
any treatment decisions.)

Low Glucose Alarm: In addition to your
personal glucose alert settings, your STS R2
Receiver will beep/vibrate if your glucose
falls below 55 mg/dL. Press any button to

Communications Service (part 95 of the FCC Rules) and must not cause harmful
interference to stations operating in the 400.150–406.000 MHz band in the
Meteorological Aids (i.e. transmitters and receivers used to communicate
weather data), the Meteorological Satellite, or the Earth Exploration Satellite
Services and must accept interference that may be caused by such aids,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
e STS T2 Transmitter shall be used only in accordance with the FCC Rules
governing the Medical Implant Communications Service. Analog and digital
voice communications are prohibited. Although the STS T2 Transmitter has
been approved by the Federal Communications Commission, there is no
