S9 recording question

Post by Hornpiper » Sun Jan 27, 2013 5:44 pm

I have an S9 AutoSet CPAP and it works wonderfully. I was curious, however, if anyone knows how it senses when apnea and hypopnea events occur for it to record on the SD chip.

There's a huge amount of information on this already on the forum

Basically, it monitors the airflow through your mask and uses that information to score events..... and if appropriate, to respond to them.

Cheers,

Bill
