Do I need to change the time on my CPAP?

Post by dudley_doright » Sun Mar 09, 2008 7:18 am

Now that we lost an hour of sleep, do I have to program the CPAP to the new time zone?

Our M Series machines do not permit us to adjust the time, so no, nothing to do for DST.

My old "tank" made the time change last night.

Your M probably did, too.

Besides, it can only be re-set by sending the unit back to the factory.

Respronics machines have to be sent back to the factory to have the time set. They are actualy set to GMT. If you are using Encore Pro or Viewer it will use your computer clock to correct for Daylight Savings. If you look at data last night it should have a one hour gap in the time line.

I guess DST messed up my log in!
