How to set pressure on a Respironics Solo plus cpap machine

Post by Rick L. » Tue Apr 21, 2015 11:57 am

How can I set the pressure on an old Respironics Solo Plus Cpap machine, or find out what pressure is already set on the machine. It is old but not really used, any help will be useful

Check out this website to see if they have the manual or information on that old dinosaur available.

It's really old and may involve having to use a manometer.

In looking for a clinician manual for this machine (didn't find one, alas) I did find a user manual date 1997.
Here is a link to the user manual: http://www.sleeprestfully.com/prodimage ... deSolo.pdf

I also found a user manual for "REMstar LX and REMstar Plus LX" which looks very similar and dated 1998.

The controls available seem to be the same although the configuration are different.

Is it possible that these two models are equivalent but intended for different markets such as US and Europe.
Or are they related like the 50 series and 60 series machines.

Just curious.

I have the Service Manual for it in .pdf format. It's 101 pages and about 7 mb in size. Unfortunately, the OP isn't a registered member of the forum and can't be contacted. And, it's in an old .pdf format that can't be copied and converted into text.
