It looks like my pressure wants to be in between 8 and 10.
I'm gonna make the minimum around 7.8 with a max of 12.8 and see how I sleep tonight.
My goal is not to wake up 3 times per night. I figure it cant hurt.

Thanks for the tip on how to take a screen shot.
Here is a better copy:

much better. except for your CAs you're doing pretty good, though could use a bit of work on the leaks. though the bad ones aren't too prolonged.

I think the leaks occur when I wake up and re position. Hopefully if I can find the reason im waking up 3x's per nite, the leaks will be cured as well because I think the leaking is occurring when I wake and roll over.
I have raised the min. pressure to 7.8 and will advise in a few days. (it now starts at 6 and auto ramps up)
THanks everyone for your suggestions.

look at the time you're those leaks... maybe they are waking you up.
