flow wave form

My average I:E ratio is 1.6 - different from the "normal" of 2:1 that I heard of, I think this is related to my flow wave form which has a flat zone in zero that counts for the inspiration time - at least is how I underantand Sleepy Head interprets data from my Dreamstation, questions:
- is the I:E ratio well calculated?
- is so, is something bad, is there anything I can do/
- the form of the flow wave is normal, indicates something wrong?

help will be very appreciated!!

- inspiration: about 1.5-2 seconds;
- normal exhalation is 1.5-2 seconds, followed by an automatic pause (no breathing for 1-2 seconds)

Your wave form looks normal. How do you feel? What's your AHI? Leak level? Hours slept?
