I'm not familiar w/the Liberty mask and since I have dial up am too lazy to click on the icon to see if it is a full face mask or a nasal cushion mask.

However, there's a couple of choices: the first, of course, is to look at the Liberty's literature to see what the "vent rate" is for the Liberty at your set pressure and compare it to the various Resmed masks for the one w/the closests "vent rate" to the Liberty's at that pressure.

The second is to just set the Mask Selection to Standard and make the math adjustments when checking your true leak rate.

The third is to just choose the Mask Selection to the Resmed mask most like the Liberty.

The fourth is to call or e-mail Resmed and ask them the "vent rate" for the Standard mask selection at your pressure and then the do math between the Liberty's "vent rate" at your pressure and the Standard selection's "vent rate" at that pressure.

I'm lazy. I opted for the 4th method.

Straight from the user manual PDF on the ResMEd site ...

"Select ‘Mir Full’ or ‘Full Face’ as the mask option when using the Mirage
Liberty with ResMed flow generators that have mask setting options."

President-pretender, J. Biden, said "the DNC has built the largest voter fraud organization in US history". Too bad they didn’t build the smartest voter fraud organization and got caught.

Bless you, DreamStalker, obviously I didn't realize that the Liberty was a Resmed mask. Youse a good guy, I think we'll keep you.

The Hybrid works as a full face mask on the s8 so the liberty would too.
