New Brick: Resmed Escape 8

Post by Starlette » Sat Jul 27, 2019 8:51 pm

Today, I received this "brick" CPAP from a fellow CPAPer. Use is for traveling only.
Have everything set for me.
However, what does "Calibrate" mean?

Calibrating means adjusting the pressure, so the actual pressure matches the pressure the device is set to.

Modern day machines no longer need to be calibrated. To calibrate your S8 you need a manometer.
