Re: Newbie: My wife just bought me an used F+P HC254

Thank you, Pugsy. Good enough and KISS are always good engineering so I will definitely try to make it work as is before I try anything adventurous.

Really appreciate your advice.

Regards,

Newbie: My wife just bought me an used F+P HC254

Hi, I'm a newbie here so please bear with me. I thought I was going to get a used S8 to replace my broken cpap but my wife found a deal on a year old HC254 and is shipping it to me in Kazakhstan. Having said that, I have gone on ApneaBoard for the clinician setup manual and hope to get that by mail ...

The iSleep was basically a commodity type machine for me and the only times I did anything to it were to wipe it down and reboot.

Hello, Sorry for the newbie questions but I am in the middle of nowhere (Kazakhstan in an Oil&Gas operational base) with a broken CPAP (iSLEEP 20i). I had this prescribed two years ago by my doctor and have enjoyed some good rest with it. It dropped from my bedstand a couple of nights ago and has st...
