Many of us have come from Animas, OmniPods, Roche, or t:slim pumps in order to pump using old Medtronic pumps. The menus will be different and you need to get proficient with the pump's normal use before complicating things with looping. Become familiar with the reservoir changes and teach your T1D kid, if that's the person who will be using the pump. Train care-givers on the new pump, as well. Assuming that you're already familiar with insulin pumping (and you should be before trying to loop) but new to these old Medtronic pumps, these "quick memu" guides will help:

**You should definitely test your basals, ISFs, carb ratios, and DIA all over again now that you've switched pumps and infusion sets. If those settings aren't correct, looping isn't a good idea.**

### Offline carb entry

* You can still use the bolus wizard to enter carbs, although it must be entered with the smallest unit of bolus (.1 or .05, depending on your pump). Otherwise, OpenAPS will ignore those carbs.
* You can still use the bolus wizard to enter carbs, although a non-zero amount of bolus must be delivered in order for OpenAPS to record the carbs. If you adjust the bolus recommended by the bolus wizard down to zero and deliver the zero units (as you might ordinarily do if you ate carbs in order to treat a low), the pump may (depending on your pump version) fail to record a bolus wizard record in pumphistory, causing OpenAPS will ignore the carbs as if you hadn't entered them. In that situation, consider delivering the smallest unit of bolus possible (like 0.05u or 0.1u) so that OpenAPS will record the carbs entered into the bolus wizard.
* Some pumps can use the ['meal marker' feature](http://openaps.readthedocs.io/en/latest/docs/Customize-Iterate/offline-looping-and-monitoring.html#entering-carbs-while-offline).
* See section on [extended and dual wave substitutes](https://openaps.readthedocs.io/en/latest/docs/While%20You%20Wait%20For%20Gear/collect-data-and-prepare.html#extended-and-dual-wave-substitute) for information on how extended boluses are handled in OpenAPS.

#### Charging LiPo Battery

You can use the little white block that comes with an iPhone (or similar charger) and a microB-USB cable. The same cables you used to setup the rig and connect to the computer will work for charging, too. Either one of the USB ports on the Explorer board will work for charging. When charging is active, there is an extra red light on in the corner of the Explorer board. When charging is complete, that corner red light will turn off. It may come back on periodically as the battery "tops off". You won’t do any damage leaving the rig plugged in for longer than the charge takes.
