Setting a BiPaP machine for CPAP

Post by Dolpp » Mon Jul 12, 2010 6:38 pm

Does anybody know if there is way to set my machine (in my profile) for auto CPAP? When I put it on Auto and set the range it automatically starts in BiPaP.

You can't set it to Auto-CPAP, but you should be able to set it to straight CPAP by setting both the EPAP and IPAP to the same pressure.
