Change CPAP Pressure Settings - Adjusting your machine with a Clinician Setup Manual (1)

There is a lot of talk about how it's "illegal" for Sleep Apnea patients to adjust or change their own CPAP machine pressure settings; that only a licensed, certified or qualified technician, physician or clinician can do it.

First of all, I challenge anyone to show me any local, state or federal law that makes adjusting your own legally-obtained CPAP machine a crime, or even threatens punitive action for doing so. Go ahead, I double-dog dare ya. If you can show me such a law, I'll give you a one-year free membership on Apnea Board. Oh, wait... Change CPAP Pressure Settings - Adjusting your machine with a Clinician Setup Manual (2) that's already free. Moving right along...

Yes, you must first have a prescription to obtain a CPAP machine - but after you OWN one, you are within your rights to do whatever you please with it, including using it as a leaf blower, running it over with the family car, or... (oh no!) - changing your own pressure settings. Change CPAP Pressure Settings - Adjusting your machine with a Clinician Setup Manual (3)

Below is some excellent info regarding setting pressures on common CPAP machines.

When it comes to our health, we need to realize that (contrary to the claims of some health care professionals) no one is looking out for your personal health as much as you. Apnea Board was created to promote "patient empowerment"-- we believe patients are their own best primary care provider. You can and should be trusted with the knowledge of how to adjust pressure settings on your own CPAP machine. If you use common sense and take simple precautions, you can safely and properly fine-tune your CPAP settings to enhance the effectiveness of your treatment.

We're not providing medical advice here, so we recommend you consult with a qualified sleep doctor before making any changes to sleep apnea therapy. You should never change settings on your CPAP machine without first having a basic understanding of how to properly make such adjustments. CPAP pressures should be changed slowly, in small increments, over a long period of time, taking note of how you feel after each change.

For a detailed explanation of how to determine the optimum pressure on your CPAP machine, click here.

Getting into the clinician setup mode on your CPAP machine is pretty simple, really.

If you're not sure which CPAP model you have, please go to our CPAP Pictures Page to identify your machine.

If you'd like assistance or advice from fellow Sleep Apnea patients, please join the Apnea Board Forum and ask any question you like.

Clinician Setup Menu Instructions for Common CPAP Machines:

DeVilbiss IntelliPAP 2 CPAP (DV63 Standard Plus & DV64 AutoAdjust): you can enter the setup menu by simultaneously pressing the Blower ON/OFF button, the Ramp button and the Rotary Knob. The 3 buttons must be held down until the screen says "Entering Clinician Menu". For instructions with pictures, please CLICK HERE. To receive the full Clinician Manual via email, please refer to Section Three below.

Respironics REMstar Auto (older pre-2007 standard unit, not "M" series, not the PR System One): you can enter the setup menu by holding down the Ramp button and both of the right and left arrow buttons under the display window, while plugging in the CPAP. The 3 buttons must be held down until the setup screen starts.

Respironics REMstar M Series (CPAP or BiPAP): Unplug the power cord from the back of the CPAP machine, then hold down both the left and right arrow keys while simultaneously plugging in the power supply. Once the device beeps twice, release the buttons. 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.

Philips-Respironics PR System One (REMstar Auto, REMstar DS150, BiPAP ST, BiPAP AVAPS, BiPAP Auto with Bi-Flex, BiPAP Pro with Bi-Flex, REMstar Pro with C-Flex & REMstar Plus): For Setup Instructions with pictures, click here. Supply power to the device: first, plug the socket end of the AC power cord into the power supply. Then plug the pronged end of the AC power cord into an electrical outlet that is not controlled by a wall switch. Finally, plug the power supply cord's connector into the power inlet on the back of the device. Once the device is powered, the home screen appears (it is a large box on the screen with four little boxes you can select by turning the control wheel). Turn the wheel to toggle between the 4 options and highlight "setup". Once setup is highlighted press and hold both the control wheel and ramp button on the device for at least 5 seconds. You will hear a double beep and the provider mode screen will appear. Also, you should remove the smart card prior to making adjustments, otherwise it will revert to the previous settings. (note: setup manuals for the REMstar Auto, BiPAP Auto & REMstar Pro machines are available by email, below)

Philips-Respironics DreamStation Series Machines (DreamStation Auto BiPAP, DreamStation BiPAP Pro, DreamStation Auto CPAP, DreamStation CPAP Pro, & DreamStation CPAP): For Setup Instructions with pictures, click here. Supply power to the device: first, plug the socket end of the AC power cord into the power supply. Then plug the pronged end of the AC power cord into an electrical outlet that is not controlled by a wall switch. Finally, plug the power supply cord's connector into the power inlet on the back of the device. Once the device is powered, press and hold both the control dial and the Ramp button on the device for at least 5 seconds. You are now in Provider Mode. To adjust a setting, rotate the control dial to your desired menu option, then press the control dial to select that setting. Rotate the control dial to change the setting. Press the control dial again to save the change. Select the "Home" icon to exit Provider Mode and return to Patient Mode. (note: setup manuals for these machines are available by email, below)

You can then navigate through the menu to change pressures.

Puritan Bennett GoodKnight 420 Series: Make sure the CPAP machine is plugged in, then find the secret button beneath the "Go" in the word GoodKnight which appears just above the LCD screen.

Turn the machine on and press both the UP and DOWN buttons simultaneously for 3-5 seconds until the pressure LED light turns on. To reduce pressure, push the DOWN button; to increase pressure, press the UP button. Use a manometer to adjust exact pressure output.

Simply push and pull down and it should slide off, under that there is a black dial that you turn up or down to change the pressure. (note: the right dial, not the left). Right in front of the adjuster knob is an LCD window that will give you the current pressure setting.

Fisher & Paykel ICON Auto, Premo & Novo: Start from the 12 o'clock position of the Home Screen. Press and hold the button in the middle of the SmartDial, and use your other hand to turn the SmartDial in a clockwise direction until you return to the 12 o'clock postion.

Please note: Some of these manuals contain only the "clinician setup pages", not the entire manual. If the links above or email file sent to you has only the setup pages, that is all we have for your machine, unfortunately.

Can't find your manual here? Suggestion: If you're trying to change your CPAP pressure but don't find your manual listed, try following the instructions for another machine made by the same manufacturer - in some cases, the procedure for getting into the clinician setup menu is the same. If you're not sure which CPAP model you have, please go to our CPAP Pictures Page to identify your machine.

For a detailed explanation of how to determine the optimum pressure on your CPAP machine, click here.

There you have it. Take control of your Sleep Apnea, and be safe.

Thanks for visiting Apnea Board!
