Re: CPAP not working
Hi, I don't have the SmartLink data module yet, so have just been following progress using the SmartCode. The past 19 days' worth of information are here: http://snk.to/f-cdka69kz A week ago I increased the base pressure from 3 to 7. I also turned off the flex function. But my AHI is still hovering ...
