ResMed Pressure Adjustment

Post by Don Up North » Sat Oct 24, 2015 2:41 pm

I would like to know how to adjust the pressures on my ResMed BiPap (VPAP). My respiratory therapist will not tell me how.

Do a search for the clinician's manual for the machine you have, example, (resmed s9 clinician's manual) and you will find it. Google is your friend.

Depending on which machine model you have, one of these should get you into the clinical menu:

* Hold down the knob and the home button for 3 seconds. (AirSense 10 series)
* Hold down the knob and the button with 2 check marks for 3 seconds. (S9 series)
* Hold down the down arrow and right arrow buttons for 3 seconds. (S8 or S7 series)
