RE: [mb635] - AirSense 10 Autoset Sleep Analysis
Just a quick note, I want to change the title of this thread to reflect your journey from Airsense 10 to ASV. Let me know if that is okay.
RE: [mb635] - AirSense 10 Autoset Sleep Analysis
That is definetly fine. Also here is what I changed in my settings, please let me know if this is the correct settings as I am aiming to test this tonight.

Those are not the correct settings change the mode to AutoASV then you will be have a minimum and max Epap. Leve min Epap at 5 max Epap to 15. I would also raise max ps to 12
RE: [mb635] - AirSense 10 Autoset Sleep Analysis
I am getting different sets of information here:
Suggested by Sarcastic Dave
Settings as follows:
Mode ASV Auto
EPAP Min 5 or 6 and Max 13
PS Min 3 Max 12
some variant like above, but not titration, but titration is the following if it is preferred:
Mode ASV Auto
EPAP 4-15
PS 3-15
see the OSCAR chart after a night's use and we can edit it a bit if needed
So I just changed the settings like you suggested but kept maximum PS at 15

That looks better, we will tune the machine later if needed be critical how you feel and how your machine felt. It won’t use the higher numbers unless it feels it needs to. if as your falling asleep it seems to be blowing at you blow back hard and it will back off try to breath evenly and slowly as you attempt to sleep to minimise the machine taking charge as you relax for sleep
RE: [mb635] - AirSense 10 Autoset Sleep Analysis
Correct as jaswilliams mentioned the blowback. Just be sure Mode states ASVAuto (the bottom setting in mode) so EPAP Min and Max appears for you to set them or you're likely on ASV with static EPAP.

RE: [mb635] - AirSense 10 Autoset Sleep Analysis
Please post another image of your settings. In your last image you were set at ASV mode with EPAP 15. That is wrong! You must be in ASVauto mode not ASV.
I still think you are better off with
Mode: ASVauto
EPAP min: 4.0
EPAP max: 15.0
PS min: 3.0
PS max 15.0.
I actually don't have a big problem with Dave's suggestion at EPAP min 5.0, EPAP max 10.0, PS min 3.0, PS max 10.0, except I'd like to see the default.

RE: [mb635] - AirSense 10 Autoset to Aircurve 10 ASV
This is a picture of the settings they look good to me slightly higher min Epap
RE: [mb635] - AirSense 10 Autoset to Aircurve 10 ASV
Yep, let's try default/titration starting point so as to know where this is beginning. I think some of those settings may have been mistook from my sample screenshot of my own new settings. But certainly, new machine clean slate start is a great idea.

Hello everyone, thank you so much for all your input. I making those adjusted settings as we speak. In the meantime. I tried using the ASV with my mask and I could breathe exceptionally well. It felt wonderful. One thing I noticed was that a bad smell was coming through the mask. I have gone ahead and wash the tube, the water holder, and the mask. If need be, I will report on Monday, and try the machine tomorrow night and with the new data on OSCAR.
