Transcend Mini gone wild

Post by cpvtnh » Tue Dec 19, 2023 6:25 am

My wife is traveling with her Transcend Mini. It has gone crazy, Pressure goes probably higher than 20 it seems, just crazy high. It kind of pulses somewhat randomly, goes that high then goes down, in a slower than breathing rhythm and also pretty random. The high pressure is too much to stand, and of course the crazy rhythm is impossible to sleep with.

No PC with her, just a phone and iPad. I understand a PC is how one would program the thing. She just traveled to 3000 feet altitude, but she has also traveled in the Rocky Mountains with it and it’s been fine.

I suppose it’s no CPAP for her this trip?

Is it safe to assume she has already tried killing the power supply, waiting a minute, and then restarting the machine?

Yeah, cutting power from battery to machine had no effect. It might have been from change in elevation. The second night at high elevation it was better but still not usable. Then back down to sea level and it’s fine.
