I would greatly appreciate it if someone would please explain something about pressures on my Resmed S9 Vpap, as I would like to change it myself. Exactly why is it crucial to maintain a gap - and what is that gap exactly? - between the inhale and exhale pressures? I have never understood this and w...

Thanks, Krelvin - I will sit down tomorrow morning and go through the steps to post. What I think I see by looking at the data is that the IP pressure has been at 0 for 30 days (!) through the settings themselves haven't changed. I have to wonder if something is broken or wrong with the machine, sin...

Thanks, Palerider. I have gone ahead and down-loaded my data - success. Is there someone on the board who could look at this chart and give an opinion? If so, please tell me how to send. Thank You! Perlina

I'm not sure how this happened, but my settings seem to have changed on my machine. Please tell me, what is the required 'gap' in numbers in order for the machine to actually work in vpap mode? I'm trying to reset at 8 and 13 - is a difference of 5 sufficient? I want to put in some time now to under...

Thanks, Pugsy!

Thank you for the reassurance, pale rider. Do you - or does anyone - know if centrals would go up in altitude?

Help! I travelled from sea level up here to an altitude of 7,000 feet (Bear Valley California) two days ago with my VPAP Auto. The first night I detected a whine in the machine portion of the VPAP. Last night (the second night) the whine seemed louder. It is rhythmic and occurs only with my expirati...

I would like to set the pressures on my Resmed S9 VPAP machine. Can anyone clearly explain to me how these pressures relate? I understand there has to be some range between the min EPAP and Max IPAP values, but I don't know specifically what it is, and I don't understand how it works. Thank you.

Next year I plan on going to Europe (Finland, Russia, Balkan countries). This will be the first time I've traveled abroad with a cpap (I have a Resmed s9). I have been diagnosed with severe apnea and sleeping without a machine is not an option for me. What do I need to take for my machine? Is a tran...

Yes, that might help if I could get that - thank you!

However, the video was excellent - a guy talking and demonstrating everything. Wish I'd saved it....
Anyone else have any ideas on this?

About 18 months ago I visited this site and found a link to a great video which showed me how to change pressure settings on my Resmed S9 VPAP machine. Can someone please point me to that link again? I can't locate it. I live a 5 hour drive from the University Sleep Center I use, which is in Nor Cal...
