Resmed Sullivan VPAP II clinician menu? HELP

Post by soulfixinman » Thu May 17, 2007 12:54 pm

I have a ResMed Sullivan VPAP® II that I need to be able to change the settings on with help from this forum.

Does anyone have the sequence to get into the clinician menu for this machine?

have no idea man.

Sullivan is the even older square model. Got to be some key-stroke combination, possibly combined with power on. Don't know if that one has a "20" button or not, but if it does you might try holding down the Start button and the 20 button at the same time.


add'l info:

takes a manometer to set the pressure:

Setting the Treatment Pressure

1. Press the STOP button and turn the flow generator off.

2. Connect the mask system to the air tubing.

3. Hold down the START and “20” buttons while you turn on the main power switch at the rear of the flow generator. Hold the buttons down until the START and “20” buttons illuminate.

4. Block the opening of the mask with the palm of your hand. (Do not block the mask exhalation vent.)

5. Read the pressure on the manometer. Use the “5” button to decrease pressure and the “10” button to increase pressure.

6. Press the Stop button to revert to normal operating mode.

Hi,

Am assuming you have the square box shaped Sullivan II.

Does it have a set of buttons like this ...

If yes then look at the last post in this thread ...

As a hit and miss suggestion.

Try powereing off & holding the start & ramp5 button down then turn power on.

Keep holding the start & ramp5 buttons down for 3+ secs.

See if that gets you into clinical mode

I was persistant and figured it out, thanks to all for the info.

this is for a Resmed Vpap II

Power off the unit
Push and hold both buttons on the right and continue to hold as you power on the unit.

release buttons when you see clinical mode
