Date/Time will be preset to the current date and time and the Period will be preset, based on the User Settings configuration and the time. When adding an event for a different date and time, set the correct date and time and then click the black diamond button to recalculate the period.

Glucose test: the glucose reading. The unit is preset with the default from in User Settings. The glucose level indicator is a graphical view of the glucose value compared to the glucose level limits from User Settings.

Note: due to a limitation of the indicator, the colours indicate:

  • Green = target high and below (that is: all critical low, warning low and on target readings)
  • Amber = between target high and critical high
  • Red = above critical high
In the main Logbook Table and the Reports the warning low and critical low readings are coloured Amber and Red, respectively.
The glucose units are set in the User Settings and can be either mmol/L or mg/dL.

Administered: record the insulins and medicine used.

Fields 'A' and 'B' are usually used for recording insulin, specifically to help separate Bolus and Basal insulins, but can easiliy be used to record medicines too. The lists for 'A' and 'B' are ordered: insulins first, followed by medicines.

Field 'C' is usually used for recording medicine, but can easiliy be used to record insulin too. The list for 'C' is ordered: medicines first, followed by insulins.

In the reports the 'A', 'B' and 'C' insulins/medicines are distiguished by different text colours. Use User Settings to manage the list of insulins and medicines.

Carbohydrates eaten: for carb. counters, record the carbohydrates eaten. Different people use different units to record carbs and this will be decided with the diabetes medical team.

Ketones tested: when ketones are tested for, it is useful to record when they are not detected as well as when they are: useful to note when they have disappeared.

Note:

  • '+ve' indicates a positive test where ketones are present. Use the 'units' field to enter the value of the ketones as indicated on the side of your test-strip container.
