Setting up your meter communication


Device: MiniMed® 530G (551/751), Revel (523/723), 522/722 and Guardian

The CONTOUR® NEXT LINK meter from Bayer can automatically send your blood glucose result directly to your compatible Medtronic device. This eliminates the need to manually enter your blood glucose result into your insulin pump or CGM monitor. In addition, this meter also allows you to set up some personal choices on when the information is sent over to your insulin pump

Important: If you are not using the meter link feature on your compatible Medtronic device, you may want to set the Send option to Never on your CONTOUR NEXT LINK meter and set the Meter Option to OFF on your insulin pump or CGM monitor to save battery power.
