i'd like to run my respironics system 1 560 apap as a cpap

Post by johnthomasmacdonald » Fri Sep 07, 2012 3:03 pm

Since as i wrote before it isn't working in bringing down my ahi below 21 as an apap, i'll like to test it at a constant pressure each night and see if increasing a constant pressure each night ever gets it down. i sent the s-card off to the company that sold the machine to me for them to evaluate why it isn't working and they claim that it is empty and are sending me another s-card to use. Does anyone know how to do this
thanks john f

The instructions for this machine are in two parts, one booklet for the consumer and the other is a provider booklet. That is the booklet you need to set your machine. Someone may be able to point you to a place where you can download the provider booklet. If not, you can PM me and I'll refer to my book to try to answer your questions.

It is easily seen where to change from auto mode to cpap mode.
