Re: Air Travel with Dreamstation-- Modem
Of note, if you do not want to remove the modem entirely, you can go into the My Setup menu and turn the modem off at that point. I plan to do the same with mine when I travel here next week.

Re: Mouth Breather Can't Fix It - (Anyone use Dreamwear?)
I use the Dreamwear and I was worried about mouth breathing too, since I do normally during awake hours. I've gotten lucky thus far that I'm actually sleeping with my mouth shut. Going to follow this thread for advice if I start mouth breathing with this mask. I like this mask a lot!

Re: New to CPAP, Trying to understand Sleepyhead
If you want the unintentional leak rate line (lower line) to be a bit more accurate you can set the mask intentional leak curve in SleepyHead to match your mask's curve. Go to Preferences>CPAP Tab. You'll see "Calculate Unintentional Leaks When not Present" selected (it's on by default for this mac...

Re: New to CPAP, Trying to understand Sleepyhead
Even tho your cpap can handle it IMO you would feel better if your leak line didn't have all those peaks and valleys. I think one should always always strive to have a flat leak line within the specs of the mfg. You want the pressure to increase only when an event is detected not because a leak is ...

Re: New to CPAP, Trying to understand Sleepyhead
Thank you very much. I'm typically a mouth breather by day, but I have jaw sensitivity issues, so it was best to try a nasal mask first. I wasn't sure if I would keep my mouth shut.

Re: New to CPAP, Trying to understand Sleepyhead
The 4 is the starting ramp pressure. Sorry, guess I should've said that as well. Ramp starts at 4, lasts 10 minutes to minimum pressure of 6.
Also, I work nights, so, most of my data will be during daytime hours.

New to CPAP, Trying to understand Sleepyhead
So, I'm new to CPAP. Started yesterday actually. Decided to pull my SD card and upload it into sleepyhead just to see how things are. I'm curious about my leak rates. I'm using the Dreamwear mask, and I'm not sure if I'm really keeping my mouth closed when sleeping. My mouth doesn't feel dried out i...
