Leak Rate Not Registering On AirSense 10 Autoset

Post by joelrk35 » Fri Jul 09, 2021 5:17 pm

I had an odd thing happen on my ResMed AirSense 10 Autoset for Her. The leak rate stopped reporting and was stuck on 5%. I called ResMed and they gave me a bunch of nonsense which was untrue. They told me that the machine would only register rates above 5% which I knew was misinformation as my unit always reported any leak rate from 0 to 100%. Long story short I pulled the power plug waited 15-20 seconds and plugged it back in. Now it is working again. Evidently its like my tv cable system which every now and then has to be rebooted.

The machine measures liters per minute leak,not percentages. The only percentage it may show is percentage of time in large leak territory.

My error in semantics. You are right that the measurement is in liters. Every
thing else I wrote is what occurred on my unit.
