Re: Replacing my Remstar AutoM BiPap

To be honest, I don't know if I need BiPap or not. Originally I was given a standard CPAP after my sleep study (done 15 years ago). 5 years later I bought the Auto M Bipap which was much better in terms of comfort and noise. I don't even know if I use it as BiPap or not. I have my data report via En...

Replacing my Remstar AutoM BiPap

I need advice to replace my 10 year old Cpap. Mine still working but I live in a foreign country and will come to the US to purchase another Cpap. I heard the Resporonics dx500t11 is a good replacement. Is this a good one for sure? I do use data and also need to know about software. Currently I have...

Re: Scale in the humidifier tank

I use coffee pot descaler solution to clean my tank like new. I've had the tank several years and it has had no effect on the tank or seals. After soaking for 1 hour it comes out factory new.

Re: Smart card problem

After erasing the smartcard via Encore Basic, the CPAP is beeping no matter how I insert the smartcard.

If I put in back into the PC cardreader, it works fine.

This happened right after I used Encore Basic to erase the card.

Smart card problem

I haven been using the orginal Encore Pro software for several years. I just got a new PC and installed the Encore Basic V2 on it. It had no problem reading my card and working fine. However, after then putting my card back into my Auto-A, the cpap is beeping. Did this new program screw up my card??...

Re: Using cpap in Asia

I live in mainland China and travel all over Asia. You won't need an adapter plug in China. The plugs here fit everything fine. It's just 220v/50hz everywhere. I have no problem's traveling. In fact if you tag your CPAP with a medical tag, you can board the planes first!

Re: AHI very strange

To answer bobkat13's question, I'm always on vacation so it's not a stress thing. I also used the same humidifier settings in Phuket. Nothing at all was changed whatsoever. Sure the bed was different, actually much more uncomfortable if anything. It has to be related to the air pressure. I will bump...

Re: AHI very strange

I am using my CPAP on C-Flex mode and it is set at 10~15 cm. I have not changed anything at either location. Not even the humidifier setting. The machine is barely a year old, and this is the first time I took it traveling because I would be staying away for so long. I am back using it at home (7000...

AHI very strange

I have been struggling to get my AHI under control for over a year now. I finally can get it to hover around 8, which is "as good as it gets". I know about leaks, hose management, etc, so please don't go there on this thread. There is something more to the reason I am posting this. I just spent a mo...

What should I do?

I know I need FF mask, so I traveled to Bangkok (from China) to find one. I was able to find a Mirage Quattro and a Ultra Mirage there. However they want $360 for the Quattro which seems like a lot of $$$! It looks to me like the Quattro is the better mask but what do you all think. Also what is the...

Re: CMS-50D+ Oximeter Review

It's a great device. I've had mine for several months now and it keeps on ticking. The reports are way cool. The price is right, what else could you ask for?

Re: Chat Problems

Too slow for me now as well. I have pretty much abandoned chat now. It used to work fine, so something has changed with this website. Nothing changed on my pc.
