Claims20
A system for pairing a user-wearable infusion pump with a remote control device, comprising:
- the user-wearable infusion pump configured to be controlled by the remote control device;
- and
- the remote control device including a processor configured to present instructions on a display screen for a pairing procedure for pairing the remote control device for control of the user-wearable infusion pump, wherein:
- feedback is provided during the pairing procedure as to indicate an ongoing status of the pairing procedure for pairing the remote control device with the user-wearable infusion pump, and
- successful pairing of the remote control device with the user-wearable infusion pump is confirmed via both the display screen and the user-wearable infusion pump.
