The Insulet Omnipod 5 does not have a manual "turn off" function. However, switching between a Controller and a smartphone will reset the algorithm, causing it to lose learned data. If you need to deactivate a Pod, you can use the deactivation function, but this is primarily for shutting down insulin delivery and activating a new Pod.

Temporary Basal Rates and Presets Temp basal settings: Units per hour (U/hr) or percent (%) Temp basals can be set using percent (%) or units per hour (U/hr). Setting temp basals to units per hour (U/hr) means that the Pod delivers insulin at a flat rate for the duration of the temp basal.
Temp basals that turn off basal insulin delivery: When using percent (%), if you set a decrease that results in a flow of less than 0.05 U/hr for a segment, the Omnipod 5 App informs you that you will receive 0 U/hr of insulin for one or more segments.
Temporary Basal Rates and Presets Tip: Using a temp basal to turn off basal insulin delivery is useful if you want your Basal Program to automatically start when the temp basal ends. Temp basal presets Some temporary changes in your daily routine are easy to predict, and you may know from experience how they affect your insulin needs.
CGM to an active Pod. Once connected, CGM values are displayed and can be used in the Omnipod 5 App in both Manual and Automated Modes. There may be times when you need to check your blood glucose using a separate BG meter.

Living with Diabetes 15 Plan for Changing Time Zones If you’re planning a vacation or business trip to a different time zone, you may need to adjust Basal Programs that you would typically follow while in Manual Mode. For changes of just a few hours, basal rate adjustments are minor and easy to calculate.
If the use of a Personal Medical Electronic Device using Bluetooth technology is allowed, set your Omnipod 5 App to airplane mode while on the airplane (see "Airplane mode" on page 124). The Bluetooth setting remains enabled in the Controller's Airplane Mode so you can communicate with your Pod.
Tip: Hypoglycemia unawareness is a condition in which you do not realize when your glucose is low. If you are prone to hypoglycemia unawareness, you may want to use the Omnipod 5 System's blood glucose reminder and check your glucose more frequently (see "Check BG After Bolus" on page 236).
15 Living with Diabetes To avoid hypoglycemia (low glucose) • Work with your healthcare provider to establish individualized Target Glucose settings and guidelines. • Keep a fast-acting carbohydrate with you at all times to respond quickly to low glucose. Examples of fast-acting carbs are glucose tablets, hard candies, or juice.
Living with Diabetes 15 Possible causes of Suggested action hypoglycemia Prone to severe Consult your healthcare provider about hypoglycemia hypoglycemia unawareness and about raising or hypoglycemia Target Glucose. unawareness Consult with your healthcare provider about using Unplanned physical Temp Basal (Manual Mode) or the Activity feature activity (Automated Mode).
Pods use rapid-acting insulin, which has a shorter duration than long-acting insulin, so you have no long-acting insulin in your body when using the Omnipod 5 System. If a blockage (interruption of insulin delivery from the Pod, or occlusion) occurs, your glucose can rise rapidly.

User Guide, contact your healthcare provider. The Omnipod 5 System is designed to connect with the Dexcom G6 CGM System. When connected to the Dexcom G6, the Pod receives glucose values and trends from the Dexcom G6.
About the Dexcom G6 19 Note: The Omnipod 5 System also alerts you when your CGM values are at or below 55 mg/dL. • Always ensure the transmitter serial number entered in the Dexcom G6 and Omnipod 5 Apps match the transmitter on your body.
Note: Consult the Dexcom G6 CGM System User Guide for more information on approved CGM placement locations. 19.3. Using the Dexcom G6 with Omnipod 5 When using Omnipod 5 System with the Dexcom G6 CGM System, you need to use the Dexcom G6 app to control your CGM. Caution:...
Screen display Above 400 mg/dL HIGH Below 40 mg/dL Note: CGM values are automatically recorded on the Omnipod 5 System and do not need to be entered on the Enter BG screen. Urgent Low Glucose Warning: ALWAYS promptly treat low glucose. Glucose at or below 55 mg/ dL indicates significant hypoglycemia (very low glucose).
Note: Use a BG meter to confirm your glucose. Treat low glucose as needed. Note: The Urgent Low Glucose Advisory Alarm has to do directly with your body’ s current glucose, while other alarms have to do with the Pod or Omnipod 5 App state.
SEARCHING FOR CGM: When the CGM is active and connected to the Omnipod 5 Pod but the most recent CGM value was not acquired within the 5-minute window. There may be no valid CGM value available due to a Pod/ CGM communication issue or a temporary CGM sensor issue (recoverable without any user action).

CHAPTER 21 About Automated Mode Contents 21.1. About Automated Mode ........290 How insulin is calculated and delivered during Automated Mode 290 Automated insulin delivery 21.2.
Automated Mode is the defining feature of the Omnipod 5 System. In Automated Mode, the system automatically adjusts your insulin delivery every 5 minutes, based on the current CGM value and trend, with the goal of bringing your glucose to your defined Target Glucose.
Page 300
You will stay in Automated Mode when the Controller or smartphone running your Omnipod 5 App is out of range of the Pod. When the Pod and Controller or smartphone are in range, the Pod sends its information back to the Omnipod 5 App, updating its Home screen to show your current IOB along with recent CGM value and trend.
21 About Automated Mode Automated insulin delivery Automated insulin delivery changes as your CGM value and trend change. The table below describes how CGM trend affects your automated insulin delivery in Automated Mode: Automated insulin delivery depends on your baseline adaptive basal rate.
About Automated Mode 21 Consult with your healthcare provider before making any changes in your Target Glucose. See "Omnipod 5 Clinical Studies" on page 309 for clinical study information at each Target Glucose. SmartBolus Calculator settings can also be adjusted including Insulin-to- Carbohydrate ratio, Correction Factor, Correct Above, Reverse Correction and Duration of Insulin Action.
Adaptive Basal Rate for your automated insulin delivery with your next Pod change. With each Pod change, insulin delivery information is sent and saved in the Omnipod 5 App so that the next Pod that is started is updated with the new Adaptive Basal Rate.
Pod is not receiving updated glucose information from the CGM. After 20 minutes of the Pod not receiving CGM values, the Omnipod 5 App displays ‘Limited’ on the Home screen. The System also enters Limited state after receiving the Automated Delivery Restriction Advisory alarm.
Page 305
21 About Automated Mode Note: Automated Mode: Limited state can occur due to a loss of communication between the CGM and Pod. It is possible that your Dexcom G6 app is still receiving CGM values. Open your Dexcom G6 app to check.

Appendix Performance Characteristics The Omnipod 5 insulin pump delivers insulin in two ways: basal insulin delivery (continuous) and bolus insulin delivery. The following accuracy data was collected on both types of delivery in laboratory studies performed by Insulet. Delivery performance characterization Basal Delivery: In order to assess basal delivery accuracy, 12 Pods were tested by delivering at low, medium, and high basal rates (0.05, 1.00, and 30.0 U/hr).
Page 360
Appendix Bolus Delivery: In order to assess bolus delivery accuracy, 12 Pods were tested by delivering a minimum, intermediate, and maximum bolus amount (0.05, 5.00, and 30.0 Units). Water was used as a substitute for insulin. The water was pumped into a container on a scale and the weight of the liquid delivered was used to assess pumping accuracy.

Can you manually turn off Omnipod to connect to sensor and turn it back on
The Insulet Omnipod 5 does not have a manual "turn off" function. However, switching between a Controller and a smartphone will reset the algorithm, causing it to lose learned data. If you need to deactivate a Pod, you can use the deactivation function, but this is primarily for shutting down insulin delivery and activating a new Pod.
