How to know the CPAP pressure from the APAP mode in AS10?

Post by Cantgettosleep » Tue Oct 22, 2024 3:19 pm

As the title says.

I'm using the APAP mode and want to change to CPAP (constant pressure), just to make a test.

How to know the CPAP pressure in a AS10?

I read the manual, but could not find the answer.

Thanks in advance.

Generally, we don't recommend tweaking (dial wingin') pressure settings without data.

So, if you want to do it the right way, download OSCAR and post a screenshot here (instructions in a thread near the top of the index page, plus we can help).

Or, get a free account at SleepHQ.com and paste the link to your charts here. This is actually easier to do and gives better information to us. However, lately, it has taken a long time for the initial upload of the data on your machine's SD card.

What are your current APAP settings? Do you know your 95% pressure for a typical night?

When you turn on the machine your pressure settings will show on the screen.
