Help with PI and TI max ,TI min

Post by Dangar » Mon Jul 01, 2013 10:00 pm

I have read my prescription and it does not say anything about PI , Ti Max , Ti Min and Trigger.
Where can I read about it?
Thank you in advance.

This is all I have. I don't understand it well enough to explain it though.
When I got my S9 VPAP Auto I just left those settings to the default settings for Ti Max and minimum because I couldn't ever figure out just how those settings impacted my comfort all that much.

Pugsy, Thank you for the link.
After reading it, I found out that Ti Max and Min do not apply to me, but to certain specific medical conditions.
As a noob I have 1000's of questions, since my machine is kind of sophisticated, I understand that it will take time
to master my new way of life. I just don't have years of experience and I figured that asking questions wasn't a crime.

Sorry for my reply, most of us don't have machines with those settings, I failed to notice you had a super xpap. Many here are lucky to get a used leaf blower and a garden hose, with a W W 2 surplus gas mask. Welcome! Jim
