Changing Pressure on CPAP

Post by 230jhp » Sun Feb 28, 2010 10:04 pm

Does anyone know how to change the pressure on the Resperonics M series CPAP? Mine is set at 11MM/WC and I need to up it a little. The last time it was changed the respiratory therapist did it and successfully concealed what he did. I know it is done by pressing and holding 2 of the buttons for 5 seconds, but I don't have the exact combination.

Is this the machine that has a ramp button and a middle button? If so, push them simultaneously.

The M series needs to have two buttons held down while simultaneously plugging in the machine. See this thread. I don't have this design any longer so I can't double check which two buttons it was:

Thanx for all the suggestions. I still have one question: How do I save the setting after I have changed it?
