Re: Getting to the M-series setup menu tip

Great tip!

I plug/unplug my laptop daily too, and it's getting loose. I enter set-up mode everyday on my M-Series to clear out the LCD data; I'd hate to damage the machine-end of the plug.

Thanks,
Mike

I just use the switch on my power strip. Why don't you have yours on a power strip?

That's a very good tip. This is a BIG problem with those small plugs. Though it had not occurred to me yet concerning the CPAP. I will use the power strip from now on.

And the bonus being you can toggle the power strip button with your foot, eliminating the third hand issues.

Great tip! Thanks much!!!!
