Re: My new machine. The PR System One

I like it. It's quiet. I had a PB 420 g for over 5 years. Got the PR 1 about mid January. Although I have been sick with one thing after another since then (colds and such), I am starting to feel better than I had with my old 420. I am looking forward to obtaining the encore pro 2.2 software but am ...

Re: SD card or Smaret card?

Click on computer, then control panel, then system, then it should tell you what you have there. I figured it out so I know you can. Hope this helps.

Re: First Morning - PR System 1 Auto / Swift FX

I have the PR System 1 Auto also. I enjoyed your post. I would like to know how you enabled your machine to give you AHI and where you downloaded the ENCORE PRO. Thanks.

NEED HELP WITH REMSTAR AUTO A-FLEX

I've got the above machine. I would like to view my AHI and other data that I believe the machine capable of monitoring. It seems all I can view is 90% pressure which is about 13.5 or there abouts. Can someone explain how I would be able to view this information? I love reading so many of the posts ...

Re: How much water used?Risperonics Heated Humidifier System One

I don't know exactly but my guess is that it uses one third the tank capacity every night on setting 4. I didn't think 3 was moist enough but might try 5 if I need to.

Re: remstar auto a-flex

I think I have figured something out. If I just put on the mask and start breathing through my nose, it may or may not start. If I put the mask on, take a fairly deep inhalation by mouth and exhale through my nose it seems to start every time.

Re: remstar auto a-flex

I have a bit more fascinating information regarding my remstar auto a/flex and me. When I went to bed last night, I huffed and I puffed and it would not fire up till I pressed the button. I had a very nice 8 hours of sleep, had to get up to go to the bathroom, put the mask back on and it came on aut...

Re: remstar auto a-flex

It seems odd that the company say it has to do with a light breath or heavy breath. When it is running it is incredibly sensitive to even the slightest exhalation. Sometimes it seems like it knows I am exhaling before I do. Oh Boy, a few more hours and I can go test it out some more. I appreciate al...

Re: remstar auto a-flex

Sorry Wulfman, it a Resmed Mirage Softgel. It is a nasal mask. For the previous 6 years I had used the Activa (sp?). I like the new one better so far. The size she gave me was a large, I am wondering if a regular might be better, however it is a significant improvement from what I had been using. I ...

Re: remstar auto a-flex

Well, I took a quick look at the maching again, it is states plainly on it Remstar Auto A/flex, off to the side it says-- system one. In the owners manual it says that it can be set by the clinician to do a/flex, c-flex, c-flex + , and maybe one more. The clinician that set it up for me said this ma...

Pressure 11, changed to 12 after a test with an auto pap a year or so ago. About a week or so ago I was able to get a new remstar auto a-flex, this is not an m. I was get...
