Additional text for 640G CGM users as below
Some 640G users may (as I did) may choose the MDT option as their CGM during the set up. If this is done,then the algorithm will look to pull the BG data directly from the looping pump instead of NS (which gets its data from the 640G) 'Note: For Medtronic 640G (CGM) users, it is recommended that you enter 'xdrip' - otherwise the BG values may not be read from your Nightscout. (The reason being, the 'MDT' option applies only for the enlite sensor attached to the actual pump you're looping with)'

* Note: OpenAPS also attempts to get BG data from your Nightscout. OpenAPS will always use the most recent BG data regardless of the source. As a consequence, if you use FreeStyle Libre or any other CGM system that gets its data only from Nightscout, you'll be fine choosing any of the options above.
