Need some help in understanding my new machine. I recently updated my machine from a 6 year old Resmed CPAP to an Remstar Auto Aflex with data capability. I ordered a software reader, should arrive this week, but would like to have an idea what number(s) I am looking for.
My pressure setting is set at 11 with +-2 flex
The unit offers several average readouts:
90% pressure is 13 - I can only guess that I am maxing out the set limitation
System Leak 40.4 - Too high? Don't know
Any idea how to reset this data and or reset the card?
I am get the software to read the daily data on the card instead of averages. I will post these numbers once a get a printout to hopefully receive feedback. But until then, I look forward to your comments on what I currently see.

Re: Help understand a new APAP
I have a Resmed rather than a Respironics so I can be much help. However, in regards to your Leak rate: check your mask literature. There is a table graph of the allowed vent rate at various pressures for that mask. Check to see what that rate is for your pressure setting to know whether your current reported leak rate is reasonable or too high.

plus1, do you have the Provider manual for your machine? If not, PM me your email address and I'll be glad to send that to you as a PDF attachment.
