M-Series CPAP Programming

Post by rkknz » Wed Nov 25, 2009 1:10 pm

Can anyone out there tell me how to program (setup) a Respironic's M-Series machine? I want to tweak the present settings and don't know to access the setup code. I programmed my former RemStar w/C-Flex for years and wish to continue with the recently aquired M-Series machine. Please someone help me. I'm using an M-Series Plus with A-Flex machine w/heated humidifier and A Resmed Swift LT mask.

I don't have my machine handy but you hold down the upper right and left button simultaineously while plugging in the power cord. Wait till you hear two beeps and your in.

I don't think the Plus comes with AFlex, it's only offered with an auto.

the plus does not have detailed data. What is your basis for tweaking without that information. Kind of like flying in the clouds with no gyro instruments.

My machine is a Remstar Auto M with A-Flex, I listed it as as an M Series Plus by mistake. Thank you all for your help, it was greatly appreciated. rkk
