Starting Loop: Compatible Pumps and CGMs

Compatible Pumps

Loop is directly compatible with both Omnipod Eros and DASH and certain older (2006 to 2012) Medtronic pumps.  Dana-i, DanaRS-v3 and Medtrum are available in a special branch.  DASH, the Dana pumps and Medtrum connect to Loop using Bluetooth.  All other pumps require a radio-link.  Omnipod DASH is the most common pump used by Loopers.  

CGMs or Continuous Glucose Monitoring

Loop (both main and dev) is directly compatible with Dexcom G6, ONE, G7 and ONE+, EU Libre 2, Medtronic Enlight continuous glucose monitors (CGM), and Nightscout as a CGM.  Eversense is available through a special branch.

Libre 2 (Other than the EU version)

The only version of Libre that connects directly to Loop without an internet connection is the EU Libre 2.
These instructions will help you connect your non-EU Libre 2 to Loop:

1. Internet connection is required, so this CGM setup is not recommended.  We’re providing instructions because we’re aware that not all loopers have flexibility as to which CGM they can use.
2. Connect your Libre to LibreLinkUp
3. Connect your LibreLinkUp to either xDrip4iOS or Nightscout

• • To use xDrip4iOS, you’ll need to
    • Customize your Loop app and
    • Build the xDrip4iOS app
  • To use Nightscout – more details to be provided in the future
