Difference
Difference
The reason why you need an older insulin pump to loop is because the newer insulin pumps are built and programmed not to be able to use looping, so the componies will make more money. The older insulin pumps were not designed to not be able to use looping, because diabetic looping wasn't a thing until 2016. Usually an edison or an app is used to connect your device,pump, and CGM together to do diabetic looping.
