G6/ONE setup⌁
Reference documentation is here.
NEVER STOP A G6/ONE SENSOR UNLESS YOU ACTUALLY PLAN TO REMOVE IT
Every time you will want to perform a Stop Sensor operation, ask yourself "Do I really want to do that?".
On the other hand, "starting" a sensor that is already started won't harm unless you change the calibration code.
G6 sensor restart is not a simple stop and start operation.
Warning
Do not attempt to start a sensor before verifying settings and connection.
Check system status when running into trouble.
Follow the steps below without skipping them.
Even if xDrip+ insists you should start the sensor, do NOT start it before you've setup everything correctly. Hit the back button to get rid of the message until instructed to start the sensor.
Verify your settings⌁
If you haven't yet, check xDrip+ will not be put to sleep (then come back here).
Enter the correct transmitter code, verify it.
Take a picture of the transmitter code: since it's written below this will avoid you having a bad time recovering it if you lose it.
Carefully check your settings.
Do NOT enable restart sensor.
