welcome to the zoo!

can't read part of your message, so maybe you can retry that when you are back from the beach.

in the meantime, we are going to need more info in order to help. not eveyone uses the same machine, mask or combo there of. it will have an impact on the advice given if we know what you have.

also, what pressure you are setup at. again, not everyone is the same.

once you towel off some of the beach sand, please follow the links in my signature below, particularly the "newbie" post.

good luck!

You need to go to your profile and fill in a few simple questions so others can help you dial in your machine to your needs better!

okay, stepping out now.

i don't have the patience to try to slowly extract information from you. maybe someone else does.

good luck.

You don't get it - there are very many Resmed auto machine models... we need to know specifically which one you use, and your pressure doesn't go up to 4, it starts there (the minimum setting), and your max. setting is probably at 20, but the min. of 4 is difficult for many so if you give us more info otherwise, we may be able to help you increase it if necessary.
