Help setting Aircurve 10 Vauto
I have been using my Aircurve 10 Vauto for about 4 months now in S mode with great results. My AHI is almost always under 1, but I do want to try running the machine in auto mode. It's currently set in S mode at IPAP 16 and EPAP 12. What would the equivalent settings in auto mode be?

Is there any advantage to using auto mode with those settings or is it going to be exactly the same as using S mode?

Ever here the saying "if it ain't broke don't fix it?"

You might find you don't need as much pressure all the time.astrozombie wrote: ↑Mon Apr 01, 2019 7:26 pmIs there any advantage to using auto mode with those settings or is it going to be exactly the same as using S mode?
The settings mets123 offered would act the same as what you have now, but wouldn't tell you anything.
I'd try minepap 11, ps 4, maxipap 25 and see what happens, if it sits at 15/11 all night long, then you can try lowering the minepap a little more, till the pressure line moves around a little.
