How to adjust pressure on Fisher Paykel Sleep Style 200 ?

Post by SantaCruzDad » Tue Jun 12, 2007 11:52 am

I've just started using a CPAP machine and so far it's a bit of a struggle. I think I probably need to increase the pressure a little and am wondering if I can do this myself rather than having to wait weeks for an appointment to see the doctor ? Presumably there is some kind of setup menu that you can get access to ?

Hi,

Just not sure what model you have but if it is an HC201 then you need a manometer to measure the pressure as you alter it.

The 221 & 604 have a LED panel that tell you the pressure.

So be careful as once you alter it & don't have a manometer, you will have a devil of a time getting it to any known setting.

Good luck

RG - many thanks - the first of those links you gave told me exactly what I needed to know. I'll give it a try tomorrow.

DSM - thanks, but it's the Sleep Style 200 which just has an LCD display - no manometer required - the first of the links gievn by RG above tells you how to get it into setup mode.
