Adjusting pressure Resmed S7

Post by billleadbeater » Tue Jan 01, 2013 8:23 pm

I have a Resmed S7 cpap which I obtained to use in NC at my daughter's home while visiting from Florida but the pressure is too high. I've tried a couple of blogger's advice but they would not work. The display shows an adjustment for altitude and ramping up periods but nothing for the changing of pressure. Can it be changed? Thank you! Bill

Did you lose or read your previous thread?
viewtopic/t85440/Resmed-S7-cpap.html
Your question was answered there.
Did you get the copy of the clinician manual? If not then you need to get it and I provided a link in the response I gave you in your other thread. The clinical manual goes into more detail.

Which S7 machine do you have? See if this helps.


ResMed S7 Lightweight CPAP Machine - Clinician Setup Instructions

1) Turn on your CPAP machine and wait for the "Welcome "message to appear.

2) Press the right button (with the red line on it - it will also have the word EXIT above it in the display window)

3) Now the CPAP display should show "S7 Lightweight " or "S7 Elite" or "S7 Spirit" and the word MENU should show above the left button.

4) Press both the right button and the down-arrow button at the same time and hold down for at least 3 seconds.

5) "CLINICAL MENU - WELCOME" should show in the CPAP display. Continue holding down the two buttons for several more seconds until the words in the display window say....

6) "CLINICAL - MENU exit" (Release the two buttons now.)

7) Press the left button with the word MENU above it

Next you should see "SETTINGS - ENTER exit" (if SETTINGS doesn't show it may be "RESULTS" or "OPTIONS" or "SERVICING" if it is any of these other words then use the middle up/down toggle button to navigate to "SETTINGS"

9) When you see "SETTINGS" in the display, press the left button with the word "ENTER" above it (this now takes you into the SETTINGS menu)

10) Use the up/down toggle button in the middle of the top of CPAP machine, to navigate to the settings you want to change - when you have the setting you want to change, press the left button with the word "CHANGE" above it.

11) Use the up/down toggle button to vary the settings.

12) When the setting change you want is showing, press the left button under the word "APPLY."

A change is not saved until you press the "APPLY" button, so it's safe to hit the Change button and look at the various changes that can be made to a setting. No change is actually made unless you hit "APPLY."

To get out of the "Apply" and "Change" areas and go back to simply walking through the CPAP menu items, press the righthand button under the word "Exit." Exit acts like the backarrow button of a browser.

To exit completely out of the CPAP clinical menu just keep pressing the right button. It will have either "cancel" or "exit" written above it. Press it repeatedly (3 or 4 times) until you're out of the clinical menu.
