something weird happened....

Post by erynfaith » Wed Jun 29, 2016 9:35 am

I remember putting the mask on last night at 11:45 ish... I remember falling asleep sometime around 12:30 or so. and I remember waking up at 4:45am.... I think the machine was on when I woke up because I turned off to drink some water and allow for a burp. My machine says I only used it for 2 hours. I looked at the memory card and it says I turned it off at 1:15am and turned it back on about 10 minutes before I woke up. wierd eh?

Weird stuff often happens when starting out and not everyone 'wakes up' enough to remember things later on... don't sweat it.

Many of use the "Auto On" option. When you put on the mask and start breathing, the machine senses it and starts up.

It could have been a power outage there was a thunderstorm kicking up as I fell asleep - although all the clocks in the house are fine. I probably turned it off and on in my sleep though. I don't have the auto on thing on yet. but the mask was on all even when the machine was off. That explains the dry mouth. I just thought I was going crazy thinking I'd used the thing for nearly 6 hours and here it's only showing 2.

Sounds like it is time for you to change the setting.
