Mask setting on S8 VPAP S to use with Mirage FX For Her

Post by candle1112 » Sun Apr 21, 2013 7:59 am

I'm not sure what mask setting to use with my S8 VPAP S machine:
The Guide says to use these settings for these masks. I'm not sure if I should use Ultra, Standard or Mirage setting. Any recommendations?
  • ULTRA for Ultra Mirage Nasal Mask & Ultra Mirage II Nasal Mask
    MIR FULL for Mirage Liberty Full Face Mask & Mirage Quattro Full Face Mask
    Ultra Mirage for Full Face Mask
    ACTIVA Mirage for Activa Nasal Mask
    SWIFT Mirage for Swift Nasal Pillows System & Mirage Swift II Nasal Pillows System & Swift LT Nasal Pillows System
    STANDARD for Mirage Vista Nasal Mask & Mirage Micro Nasal Mask
    MIRAGE for Mirage Nasal Mask

I would use the Mirage setting.
Your Mirage FX is a nasal mask isn't it?

Edit....I see the chart Randy linked to...wonder why the Mirage choice isn't shown?

See page 2 of Resmed's Pressure vs Flow sheet: http://www.resmed.com/us/assets/documen ... sa_eng.pdf

It looks like you should use the "Standard" setting.

Thanks RandyJ for the link to the document. That's the exact info I need.
And thanks to you to Pugsy.
