I printed out the clinician manual for my machine and added this information to the inside cover. I may not be new to the CPAP but I am quite new to something that performs tasks other than just turning on and off (R.I.P. Healthdyne Tranquility Quest, 1997-2012).

Reminds me of a quote from Throw Mamma From The Train: Larry: "Remember, a writer writes always". and also "The night was moist..." Ah, I love quoting the classics. I'm kind of sentimental that way...  ...and NO, I haven't been drinking... I'm just weird.

Are you PWD? (posting while drunk)
Schematics is so a word. And to keep going OT, I got a sign in my office: Keep Clam and Proofread. Now, back on topic, everyone is welcome to PM me with more acronyms-slash-abbreviations (and what they mean) and I'll add them to the wiki article.

Service
Displays the device run hours, software version and other component versions. Run hours Displays the total number of hours the device has been used including warm-up and cool-down times for the humidifier. It is not affected by the period selected. This is the only data item that is not reset when data is erased.
