TOTAL Spec Sheet for Respironics TANK!

Post by Julie » Sun Oct 06, 2013 4:19 pm

Hi - Not everything here is still valid (like the warranty), but I keep useless stuff and thought someone might be interested. It's my backup machine (hardly used!). Enjoy!

From 4cm up to CPAP pressure, Smart Card Records 9 Months usage, Date/Time, Duration at pressure, snoring and apneic events information. Software 1.0 & Smart Card Reader

9.45" x 6.69" x 4.72"

3.96 lbs. Altitude Compensation Automatic
Electrical Requirements
100 - 240 AC, 12volt DC

Respironics REMstar (M Series):
To get into the clinician's setup mode in a REMstar M Series CPAP machine or a BiPAP M Series CPAP machine follow these steps:

1. unplug the power cord from the back of the CPAP machine
2. hold down both the left and right arrow keys while simultaneously plugging in the power supply
3. once the device beeps twice, you can release the buttons

When you plug it in, the firmware number will show first, then the blower hours and then the user hours.

After you hear the two beeps, you'll see the word setup in the lower right corner of the LCD screen. When you select setup you'll be in the clinician's mode where you can adjust every feature of the CPAP machine, including the pressure setting. Below is the list of settings you can cycle through on a REMstar Plus M Series:

* CPAP Pressure (only in provider setup mode)
* Altitude
* Fine Pressure Adjustment (only in provider setup mode)
* C-Flex Setting
* Ramp Time
* Ramp Start Pressure
* Mask Alert
* Auto Off
* Patient Reminder (only in provider setup mode)

5. The ideal humidity setting depends on room temperature and humidity. Initially, a setting of 2 is recommended. You can adjust this setting at any time. Press and hold the humidifier button on the CPAP device until the humidifier screen appears. Press the humidifier or ramp buttons to change the setting.
IMPORTANT! The humidifier is turned on whenever the settings menu is entered. It will turn off in 20 minutes if the air flow is not turned on.

IMPORTANT! When the air flow is turned off, the humidifier will automatically shut off. If you restart the air flow, and heated humidification is desired, you must press the humidifier button to reactivate the humidifier.
