Command 13 Extra Basal

0x13 Set Basal Schedule Follow-on Command

The 0x13 command is the follow-on command for the Command 0x1A Table 0 case to set the basal schedule. This command always immediately follows the 0x1A command with Table 0 (basal schedule) in the same message.

The generic format of the 0x13 basal schedule follow-on command format is:

13 LL RR MM NNNN XXXXXXXX YYYY ZZZZZZZZ [YYYY ZZZZZZZZ ...]

• 13 (1 byte): Mtype value of $13 specifies set basal schedule follow-on command for a 1A command Table 0.
• LL (1 byte): Length of command
• RR (1 byte): Reminders mcrrrrrr: m bit ($80) for beep modifier (always observed to be zero), c bit ($40) for Confidence Reminder beep, rrrrrrr (6 bits) # of minutes ($3c = 60 min) for Program Reminder beeps; typical values of $00, $3c, $40 and $7c.
• MM (1 byte): Schedule entry index [0 .. number_of_schedule_entries - 1].
• NNNN (2 bytes): Remaining 1/10th of a pulse of insulin to deliver for current entry (i.e., # of pulses x 10).
• XXXXXXXX (4 bytes): Delay until next 1/10th of a pulse, expressed in microseconds.
• YYYY (2 bytes): Total 1/10th of a pulses of insulin for this schedule entry (i.e., # of pulses x 10).
• ZZZZZZZZ (4 bytes): Delay between 1/10th of a pulse, expressed in microseconds. Example: 3.0 U/hr = 60 pulses per hour = 1 min between pulses = 6 secs for 1/10th of a pulse = 6,000,000 uS = 0x5b8d80

The XXXXXXXX and ZZZZZZZZ values have a minimum value of 0x30d40 (=200,000 uS, i.e., 0.2 secs between 1/10th of a pulse or 2 secs between pulses) and a maximum value of 0x6b49d200 (=1,800,000,000 decimal, i.e., 5 hours between pulses).

As many sets of YYYY ZZZZZZZZ schedule entries are used as needed to fill out an entire 24 hour schedule. There is typically one YYYY ZZZZZZZZ pair for each InsulinScheduleElement in the Insulin Schedule of the $1A Command, but this is not necessarily the case as the PDM always tries to use the smallest length encoding possible. Since a single InsulinScheduleElement can only describe a maximum of 8 hours (see details here), adjacent napp elements with the same rate can have their pulse schedule specified by a single schedule entry.

NNNN and XXXXXXXX Calculation

The Pod internally deals with tenths of pulses and thus the time between pulses divided by ten. The XXXXXXXX (delayUntilNextTenthOfPulse) and NNNN (remainingPulses) values can be computed by the following Swift calculations:

delayUntilNextTenthOfPulse = timeRemainingInEntry.truncatingRemainder(dividingBy: (timeBetweenPulses / 10))
remainingPulses = pulsesPerHour * (timeRemainingInEntry-delayUntilNextTenthOfPulse) / .hours(1) + 0.1

See here for details on how the $1A portion of this command is encoded which involved merging the adjacent segments for the same 0.85 U/h rate and then splitting that result segment when encoding because it exceed the maximum 8 hour limit of a single InsulinScheduleElement.

The MM of 05 specifes the index #5 of the six YYYY ZZZZZZZZZ schedule entries. In this example, this is the last one of YYYY ZZZZZZZZ = $0370 $00f9b074 which works out to have 880 one-tenths of a pulse and 16.363636 seconds per one-tenth of pulse.

NNNN     $0262 => 610 tenths of pulses (61 pulses) to deliver in initial segment
XXXXXXXX $00455b9c => 4,545,436 uS or 4.545436 seconds to the next tenth of a pulse

YYYY     $01e0 => 480 / 10 = 48 total pulses
ZZZZZZZZ $015752a0 => 22,500,000 uS per 1/10 pulse or 225 sec/pulse
225 sec/pulse x 48 total pulses = 10,800 total seconds or 3 hours which corresponds to the
napp of $5008 [6 half hours at 8 pulses per half hour or 3 hours at 0.8 U/h]

YYYY     $0168 => 360 / 10 = 36 total pulses
ZZZZZZZZ $01312d00 => 20,000,000 uS per 1/10 pulse or 200 sec/pulse
200 sec/pulse x 36 total pulses = 7,200 total seconds or 2 hours which corresponds to the
napp of $3009 [4 half hours at 9 pulses per half hour or 2 hours at 0.9 U/h]

YYYY     $06a4 => 1700 / 10 = 170 total pulses
ZZZZZZZZ $01432096 => 121,176,470 uS per 1/10 pulse or 211.76470 sec/pulse
211.76470 sec/pulse x 170 total pulses = ~36,0000 total seconds or ~10 hours which corresponds to the adjacent 
napp of $f808 [16 half hours at 8.5 pulses per half hour or 8 hours at 0.85 U/h] and the
napp of $3808 [4 half hours at 8.5 pulses per half hour or 2 hours at 0.85 U/h]

YYYY     $01a4 => 420 / 10 = 42 total pulses
ZZZZZZZZ $01885e6d => 25,717,285 uS per 1/10 pulse or 257.17285 sec/pulse
257.17285 sec/pulse x 42 total pulses = ~10,800 total seconds or ~3 hours which corresponds to the
napp of $5007 [10 half hours at 7 pulses per half hour or 5 hours at 0.7 U/h]

YYYY     $0168 => 360 / 10 = 36 total pulses
ZZZZZZZZ $01312d00 => 20,000,000 uS per 1/10 pulse or 200 sec/pulse
200 sec/pulse x 36 total pulses = 7,200 total seconds or 2 hours which corresponds to the
napp of $3009 [4 half hours at 9 pulses per half hour or 2 hours at 0.9 U/h]

YYYY     $0370 => 880 / 10 = 88 total pulses (8 half hours at 11 pulses per half hour)
ZZZZZZZZ $00f9b074 => 16,363,636 uS per 1/10 pulse or 163.63636 sec/pulse
163.63636 sec/pulse x 88 total pulses = ~14,400 total seconds or ~4 hours which corresponds to the
napp of $700b [8 half hours at 11 pulses per half hour or 4 hours at 1.1 U/h]
