I'm not familiar with the S6, but on the S8 you press and hold the "Down" and "Right" buttons simultaneously to get you into Clinicians Menu.

The S6 differs from the S7 & S8 models.

I too have been trying to find this info but gave up looking.

I will be most interested in the info if someone locates it.

I found this elsewhere on this site, trying to give back as I have been greatly helped here. I think this post answers the question, I sure hope it does.


"Hi there,

I do not know if they work the same, but I have a ResMed S 6 and to change the pressure you hold the start and the highest ramp button down while you plug the cord into the outlet. The display on mine is on the bottom of the machine.
It goes through a couple numbers before it gets to my pressure. The pressure on mine is expressed as three numbers. My pressure is 9. so it reads 090.
I hope this helps. I do not know if you adjust the pressure the same way on yours. Good luck. I do hope you can get this worked out soon. It is no fun not being able to get good sleep.

Take care.

Karen Moore"

CPAPsaves --- Brilliant !!!

The unit I have is a CPAP B (pre the 6) and has no readout.

But, I held the highest ramp + start buttons - put the power on &
after a short while it started. Both the Ramp 20 & start buttons remained lighted. So then I pressed CL1 & pressure went down & pressing CL2 sent pressure up. I also have a manometer & thus can accurately set this machine now.

Many thanks for putting that info here. Now I can play with this unit - it is so quiet.

Cheers
