Re: S9 Elite Functionality Question
Your not holding down the button on the left of the screen for 3 seconds by chance are you? If you may be again by chance then you will want to hold the turn knob button down for the 3 seconds to the right of the screen instead. Personally I do not use the ramp feature anymore stopped after a few da...

Re: New S9 Elite - A couple of queries?
Hi Biggie_D, you seem to be one of the few people on this forum who have an S9 Elite instead of the S9 Autoset. (The S9 Autoset is $2000 AUD and the S9 Elite is $1000 AUD for me to buy here, so I'm trying to work out if it's twice as good.) I note in my settings on the S9 Elite that the clinician h...

Re: SWIFT FX - Comfort suggestions?
I use the Swift FX and LOVE IT, I too like the poster above me when I wake up I don't even notice it, I start with mine lose each night, yes its a small pain in the rear but the trade off for the comfort these give is worth it too me. Like Cobra said loosen it just enough so that it is not forced in...

Re: New S9 Elite - A couple of queries?
The s9 will ignore central apneas and has the climate line tubing which can be great if you like lots of humidity and sleep in a cool room. I have also noticed the wheeze of the S9 but otherwise it has been very quiet. The S8 has also been said to be very quiet also. The Auto can be used when neede...

Re: OT: Good External Drive for Backups?
