Need help with settings for s9 auto

Post by spartancal » Mon May 24, 2010 8:13 pm

I just got an S9 auto today. I need suggestions for min and max settings. My sleep study indicated my pressure should be 17 cm H2O. I had a cold the day of my sleep study and I believe this affected my required pressure. I believe 17 is too high but I want the data to tell me. I want to set the S9 to auto mode and review the data with the software to determine my correct pressure. But I need suggestions for initial min and max pressure settings.

That's fairly unlikely. Do you have any other reason for thinking your titration is too high?

There is no "standard" number, everyone is different.

Cheers,

Bill
