A few changes and a pull needed - thanks.

Can you re-pull from master? I merged in the xdrip instructions, which this would otherwise remove again without a pull on your side first.

Medtronic CGM users can, by default, automatically loop offline because the rig will read CGM data directly from the pump.

Dexcom CGM or other CGM users will need alternative solutions, which range from plugging in a receiver into your rig (Pi, or Edison rig), or using xDrip to get BGs locally. See below for more details.
Dexcom CGM users and users of other CGMs will have alternatives to input blood glucose values localy. 1.) Use xDrip see: http://stephenblackwasalreadytaken.github.io/xDrip/ 2.)Hardwire (plugging CGM receiver into) your rig. RPi to Dexcom uses standard to micro usb while Explorer to Dexcom uses micro to micro usb.

let's not go into this level of detail here - should be on the hardware page for each type of rig about necessary cords

Explorer boards built prior to February of 2017 are not working with a hardwired CGM receiver. This can be fixed with a signal trace cut. Please see this document to cut the copper trace from pin 61 of the 70 pin connector: https://github.com/EnhancedRadioDevices/915MHzEdisonExplorer/wiki#usb-otg-flakiness Cut in two places and dig out the copper between. Cut by poking the point in. Avoid the narrow trace above the one being cut.

"will not work well" (vs not working at all) and let's say "late January" to be accurate.

hardwired did sometimes work perhaps and cable talk wasn't needed

GIT Stuck 👎 technical inability to deal with this "Can you re-pull from master?"
