System one 560p Auto on not workin

Good Morning,

I hope someone can help me. I have had my System One 560p since 2013, I have used it since the beginning with no problems.
I was recently diagnosed with cancer and am having surgery in July. I decided to buy a 2nd used machine(same model) as a back up and reset the new machine to match the old one ( by going into setup and holding down the ramp and on & off at the same time). I continued to use my original no problem, this morning for the first time when I awoke I realized my machine wasn’t on. My machine is set to turn on automatically after I place my mask on,most times I turn it on myself. Obviously last night I didn’t, I’ve started taking a sleeping pill because my nerves are shot, and I guess I fell asleep not realizing that it wasn’t on. I tried it this morning and it is not going on automatically. I changed to the other machines power supply, then changed to a new hose, then new mask. I then tried my new machine and the auto on didn’t work on that also. I’m thinking that by accident I changed something on my original but don’t know what.

Mode- auto
Auto max- 16
Auto min 4
Optic start. Off
Flex type A FLEX
A FLEX 3
Tubing type lock. Off
Tubing type 15
System resistance 0
Lock system On
Auto on. On
Auto off. Off
Mask alert. Off
Mask fit check. Off
Ramp backlight. On
Show AHI On
Split night. Off
Silent mode. On

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you

Some masks don't work as well with auto on, I found that especially true when I had an S1.

What kind of mask are you using? For a FF mask, I always had to cover the anti-asphyxiation valve with a finger and then take a deep breath to get it to start.

I am using a resmed F10 full face mask. I will try your suggestion tonight. To make sure that there are no problems when
I take it to the hospital, I am planning on taping a note to it to alert the staff that the auto on doesn’t always work and to manually turn it on. I don’t want any problems in the recovery room.

Thank you for your help.

They probably wouldn't expect the machine to auto start, as far as I know, the hospital ones don't.

I second the suggestion about blocking the as port, the auto start on respironics machines isn't very sensitive at all, I usually felt like I was trying to suck start a tractor every time I'd use it on the two machines I had in the past.
