Re: DreamStation2 modem

I assume you've tried unplugging the DS2 and then plugging it back in after a few minutes as suggested in the users manual(?)

Have you tried to contact the 'Care Provider'? This is what Google came up with.....

DS1 to DS2 - Medicare 5 Yr Replacement Time Frame

I got my original DreamStation 1 in 03/2020. The recall replaced the DS1 with a DreamStation 2 in 10/2021. My DME recently sent me an email to start the 5 year replacement process which I assume would be for 03/2026 (I'll be ignoring the email until the actual replacement date nears). If I still had...

Re: Anyone use PAPMD cpap filters?

MyIdaho.. To enter/access the 'Clinician' menu and settings are you using the button presses shown in the image below? Doing this should display two gears and 'Settings' '>'. From there you should be able to see the menu items such as Options/'Essentials where you could change Essentials to 'Plus' w...

Re: Anyone use PAPMD cpap filters?

I was curious about the 'Essentials' menu selection and also if my own AS10 Auto had a setting for a filter. Evidently the 'Essentials' selection appears only to affect the 'Patient' menu options and not the 'Clinician' menu items. The 'ON' setting of 'Essential' gives the patient basic settings, wh...

Re: Anyone use PAPMD cpap filters?

Not sure if enabling the "Essentials" to 'Plus' in the "Options" menu will get you into the "Accessories" menu, but worth a try.

Re: Anyone use PAPMD cpap filters?

Having the filter attached to the mask may be a bit annoying. Possibly having a length of tube between the mask and the filter might help. I don't have a filter, but do use a Sleepweaver Featherwieght tube as an extension to a Resmed Climateline tube which is very flexible compared to the Resmed tub...

Re: AirSense 11 Auto-set - Observation thus far

Get a hanger/hook so the hose is routed behind the bed headboard and overhead. This make the rear hose connection workable and less likely you'd ever pull the machine off the nightstand. I actually turned my DS2 around so the hose exited to the rear of the nightstand to use the hanger. The turned ar...

Re: Finally got a new machine

I had the DS1 which was replaced with a DS2. I also have an AS10 as a backup machine which I use occasionally. I have three profiles in OSCAR. The old DS1 is gone, but it's good to have the old data for reference.

Re: Power Consumption

The biggest power consumer on a CPAP is the humidifier and heated hose. If you can do without those the CPAP will draw much less power and a lesser of a backup power source would be needed. For my DreamStation 2 I bought a 'power station' similar to the one linked below. It can run the DS2 overnight...

Re: Sleeplay doesn't honor warranty

Gilpv22, Any chance that that water chamber is not a genuine Resmed chamber? Does it have the Resmed logo on it? There are a bunch of non-Resmed AS10 water chambers that can be found on Amazon and my own DME unless I specify, has at times tried to substitute non-branded supplies to maximize their p...

Re: Filtering Air

"Instead of buying an in-line air filter......"

By 'in-line' air filter', do you mean a filter that attaches/connects to the hose or mask? In-line to me suggests a filter that is in the hose or mask connection.

As noted most filters available CPAP's can be purchased at reasonable cost.
