### **Your Omnipod Dash PDM will become redundant after the AAPS Dash driver activates your pod.**
62
62
- Before using **AAPS** you or your care giver would have had to manage the Pod using the Omnipod PDM (or in some regions a Phone app) to send commands to your DASH (e.g a Bolus).
63
63
- The DASH can only facilitate a single Bluetooth device (e.g PDM or Phone) connection to manage and send commands.
64
64
- The device that successfully activates the pod is the only device allowed to communicate with that Pod from that point forward. This means that once you activate a DASH with your Android phone using **AAPS**, **you will no longer be able to use your PDM with that pod!** For the time that Pod is active the **AAPS** Dash driver running on your Android phone is now the new PDM for your pod.
65
65
-**DO NOT Throw away your PDM!** It is recommended to keep it around as a backup and for emergencies, for instance when your phone gets lost or **AAPS** is not working correctly.

Default basal rates are programmed on the pod on activation as defined in the current active [**Profile**](../SettingUpAaps/YourAapsProfile.md).
69
69
As long as **AAPS** is operational it will send basal rate adjustment commands that run for a maximum of 120 minutes.
70
70
When for some reason the pod does not receive any new commands (for instance because communication was lost due to Pod ➜ phone distance) the pod will automatically fall back to default basal rates as defined in your [**Profile**](../SettingUpAaps/YourAapsProfile.md).

### **AAPS Profile(s) do not support 30 minute basal rate time frames**
73
73
If you are new to **AAPS** and are setting up your basal rate [**Profile**](../SettingUpAaps/YourAapsProfile.md) for the first time, please be aware that basal rates starting on a half-hour basis are not supported.
74
74
For example, on your Omnipod PDM, if you have a basal rate of 1.1 units which starts at 09:30 and has a duration of 2 hours ending at 11:30, it is not possible replicate this exact basil **Profile** in **AAPS**.
75
75
You will need to change this 1.1 unit basal rate to a time range of either 9:00-11:00 or 10:00-12:00. Even though the DASH hardware itself supports the 30 minute basal rate **Profile** increments, **AAPS** does NOT support this feature.

### **0U/h Profile basal rates are NOT supported in AAPS**
78
78
While the DASH does support a zero basal rate, **AAPS** uses multiples of the user's **Profile** basal rate to determine automated treatment; it cannot function with a zero basal rate.
79
79
Instead a temporary zero basal rate can be achieved through the "Disconnect pump" function, or through a combination of Disable Loop/Temp Basal Rate or Suspend Loop/Temp Basal Rate.
80
80
**NOTE:** The lowest basal rate allowed by the DASH in **AAPS** is 0.05U/h.

There are basal testing methods which usually entails observing your basal rates and insulin needs during an <u>intermittent</u> fasting over a 24-hour period. Although you need to test your basal rates for the whole day, it is not recommended to fast during 24h straight. This is because the body triggers mechanisms such as hormones to compensate. A recommended way is to fast 3 times for 8 hours.

The recommended method is to suspend the loop (for safety you can set AAPS to [**LGS**](#Preferences-aps-mode) to avoid lows, as done for achieving [objective 6](#objectives-objective6)), which will revert to your default background basal rate. Observe how your **BG** changes: if it is dropping, basal rate is too high. And vice versa.<br/>

An alternative method (may be more tricky) is to keep the loop running, and seeing how **IOB** changes. If **IOB** is negative, your basal rate is too high. And vice versa. Beware that this method relies on **ISF** to correct **BG**, and thus depends on other variables to be set reasonably well for it to be successful.<br/>
131

Another way of adjusting your basal rates is to watch the loop action during the night, when all COB have decayed. This method is particularly useful for children, when fasting is difficult or insulin needs change often. [Dr Saleh Adi from Tidepool](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-fpWnGRhLSo) provides useful ways on how to analyze overnight BG lines in order to optimize your basal rates.
