This may seem like a stupid question, but here goes. I hope to have my software today and use it for the first time tonight. I still get up at least once a night. Do I turn off the machine or just disconnect the hose from my mask. How does this affect the leak numbers? Never had to think about it before. Thanks, Linda

turn off the machine
other wise you leak rate will go crazy
I had the same question when I got my auto. I agree with wolftracker - turn it off when you take your "break"

And turn the machine off before you remove the mask. You will show a open spot in the data, but the numbers will be right. Also in Encore Pro there is a place to set the start time for the night, so you won't have the night break into two days, it's in demographics. Jim
