22 days in and need some help.

Post by harold8028 » Fri Jan 11, 2019 7:36 am

Hi, I'm using the DreamStation Auto Bipap. I have noticed that when I put up "info" on my screen all I see are 'therapy hours" and that's all. No AHI readings or mask fit, etc.

Welcome to the forum.

The default from the factory is for the machine to only show hours of use. To get what limited data that is available on the LCD screen you have to go into the clinical setup menu and make a change so that it will show the data on the screen.
Go here and request the manual for your machine and in the manual you will find the instructions for how to get to the setup menu area and which setting to change.

It's pitiful data though...I suggest using SleepyHead if you can...much more complete data.
See the Sticky for Newbies in the top of the Announcements section...I have links for getting SleepyHead in that thread as well as links to instructions for how to use it.
