I have an old Respironics CPAP that I have been using for 7 or 8 years now. It is a SOLO, but I don't see anything indicating it is an LX. It has two buttons - On/Off and Ramp. That's it. The information on the bottom is:
Model: SOLO N. AM. Part Nr. M622002
108983 115 - 120V~ / 230-240V~ 50-60 Hz 0.5 DC max 115 VAC - T315 mA - 5 X 20mm 230 VAC - T200 mA - 5 X 20mm Class II Type: BF
It will be next year before I can swing another sleep study and get something a bit more modern. In the meantime, does anyone have a manual for it? Is there any way to set the pressure on it, or (more importantly) double-check the current setting (I'm supposed to be at a 10)? I'm coming up blank on Google searches.
I'm traveling with it to Prague and Budapest next week. Respironics said to:
buy the fuses for 230 volt operation, part number 622025
change the voltage selector switch to 220 volts
use correct plug adapters for the country you will be traveling to
This is similar to what I did when I went to Thailand a few years back. Has anybody used this model in Prague or Budapest? If so, did you have any problems with it?
Thanks!
Jesse
Have old Respironics SOLO (not an LX, as far as I can tell)

Jesse, maybe this will help. I don't know for sure if these instructions are correct, as I've never had that machine. Hope you have a wonderful trip!
Solo and Solo LX
With the machine plugged into a wall outlet, unplug the cord from the back of the CPAP. Now, press and hold the Pressure On/Off button (the round button on the left) and the Ramp button (the oblong button on the right) down at the same time while plugging the cord into the back of the CPAP.
The pressure setting will display. To change the pressure, press the Ramp button and the pressure will increase 1cm of water pressure each time you press the button.
When you stop pressing the Ramp button, the signal light will flash one time for each cm of pressure to correspond with the new pressure setting. If you wish to verify the setting again, press the Pressure On/Off button. The signal light will again flash one time for each cm of pressure.
To exit and save changes press and hold the On/Off button while pressing the Ramp button once. The machine should quit blowing and the green light should light up.
