Go to YOUtube and search for your model cpap & clinical menu.

Yes, first thing to do is ignore the above comment, and instead go to apneaboard.com and click the option on the front page to get a copy of the manual for the machine.

Then once you have the docs that shows how to get into the clinical menu and what the settings all mean, then you can start setting some parameters and getting some data using Oscar.

I'd suggest setting it to

VAuto mode
MinEPAP 6
MaxIPAP 25
PS 2

and leave the rest of the settings at default, then sleep with it, and pull the data into Oscar then post a page as detailed here:

wiki/index.php/Oscar:organize

I assume this machine had prior usage from someone else???
If so you probably want to erase all that prior data so it won't co-mingle with your data.
Instructions are in that provider manual.
You might also want to do a reset to factory defaults just in case some of those other settings (beyond pressure) have been changed.

Comments about comments are not (supposed to be) allowed here except for the rude.
So I will leave it at that.
