Command 1F Cancel Request

0x1F Cancel Command

Command $1F is the Cancel command. It has the following format:

OFF 1  2 3 4 5  6
1f 05 NNNNNNNN AX

• 1f (1 byte): Mtype value of 0x1F specifies a cancel command
• 05 (1 byte): The cancel command always has a fixed length of 05
• NNNNNNNN (4 bytes): Nonce, the 32-bit validator (random looking numbers)
• AX (1 byte): Command byte of the form aaaa0bcd:

  • The aaaa (A) nibble is a beep type value. Recordings for common beep values can be found in All Beep Types.

    • 0x0 No Sound
    • 0x1 BeepBeepBeepBeep
    • 0x2 BipBeep BipBeep BipBeep BipBeep
    • 0x3 BipBip
    • 0x4 Beep
    • 0x5 BeepBeepBeep
    • 0x6 Beeeeeep
    • 0x7 BipBipBip BipBipBip
    • 0x8 BeeepBeeep
    • 0x9 No Sound
    • 0xA No Sound
    • 0xB BeepBeep
    • 0xC Beeep
    • 0xD BipBeeeeep
    • 0xE Continuous beep for 5 seconds (if Pod is suspended)

  • The b (0x04) bit being set will cancel any ongoing bolus and will turn off the RR reminder variables set from the 0x17 Bolus Extra command.

  • The c (0x02) bit being set will cancel any ongoing temporary basal and will turn off the RR reminder variables set from the 0x16 Temp Basal Extra command.

  • The d (0x01) bit being set will cancel the basal program and will turn off the RR reminder variables set from the 0x13 Basal Schedule Extra command.

If none of the b, c, or d bits are set, then the beep type value is not examined or used and no insulin delivery is cancelled (i.e., it functions as a Cancel None command). If more than one of the b, c and d bits are specified with a non-silent value for A, then the specified beep sequence will play once for each insulin delivery type being cancelled (e.g., an AX value of 0x67 will emit a type 6 beep three times, an AX value of 0x53 will emit a type 5 beep two times, an AX value of 0x82 will emit a type 8 beep one time, etc).

Cancel Temp Basal

An important use of the 0x1F cancel command for closed loop use is to cancel a temporary basal rate.

An example from Temp Basal Packets:

1f 05 NNNNNNNN AX
1f 05 d88df895 62

The AX value of 0x62 has an aaaa nibble value of 6 which will cause the Pod to emit a a single longer type 6 beep. The c (0x02) bit being set cancels the in-progress temporary basal and clears any associated temp basal completion beep and Program Reminders.

An example cancel temporary basal sequence:

2017-10-04T14:37:14.378063 ID1:1f0b3555 PTYPE:ACK SEQ:25 ID2:1f0b3555 CRC:f0

Pod Deactivate

A cancel is also done as part of a Deactivate Pod.

1f 05 NNNNNNNN AX
1f 05 e1f78752 07

The AX value of 0x07 will cancel any on-going bolus, temporary basal, and basal program in effect and clears all completion beep and Program Reminders.

Suspend

The $1F command is also used as part of a "Suspend" in conjunction with a $19 command. Consider this example Suspend for 0.5 hours taken from Temp basal with suspend cancel.

1f 05 NNNNNNNN AX  19 LL NNNNNNNN IVXX YYYY 0J0K IVXX YYYY 0J0K
1f 05 b15898b0 03  19 10 b15898b0 580f 000f 0604 6800 001e 0302

In this example, the Cancel Command AX value of 0x03 is silent with an A nibble value of 0 while the c (0x02) and d (0x01) bits being set will cancel the current temporary basal and basal programs and clears the associated completion beeps and Program Reminders. The subsequent Command 19 Configure Alerts then sets the Suspend related beeps.

Cancel Insulin Delivery

Yet, another 0x1F command variation is to cancel a bolus operation before it is finished. The PDM reports the partially delivered amount.

1f 05 NNNNNNNN AX
1f 05 3b9a7028 64

In this cancel bolus example, the $1F command AX value is 0x64. The aaaa nibble value will generate one longer type 6 beep and the b (0x04) bit being set specifies to cancel the bolus and clears the bolus completion beep and Program Reminders.

Restrictions

This command can only be used when the current Pod Progress State is between 8 and 12.
