Yes, Please explain how you figured it out and what you did. We never know what might happen. Someone might come here next month with same issue and all we can tell people is so and so fixed his problem with something that Wulfman told him but we don't know what it was.

I may have to RISE but I refuse to SHINE.

If you want to try the Eclipse mask and want a special promo code to get a little off the price...send me a private message.

When you are wearing the dental appliance as a backup for your CPAP...how do you know it is lowering your AHI

Sorry for the delay of a response. What I did was hold down the heat and ramp buttons while powering on the machine. I think I got the error code because I was holding down the arrow buttons instead. No more errors. And I was able to change the pressure to match that of my prescribed cpap machine. Thanks again Wulfman!
