Incorrect usage registering
Lo I am fairly new to cpap. Started May 29. I have struggled especially early on. My allergies were out of control, I had a hard time breathing with the mask on, and had to take it off repeatedly to blow my nose. I started doing a lot better. I noticed a problem though, I would fall asleep with my mask on and wake up with it on. My machine would only register a couple of hours usage. Does anyone have any ideas about why this would be happening? Thanks!
RE: Incorrect usage registering
The time of reporting is 12 noon to 12 noon. Your clock could be set for the wrong time like am and pm... So that days would only be from when the clock on the machine begins 10am say instead of 10PM so you would only get 2 hrs from 10 am to 1159 am.

You'll want OSCAR to view this, it'll help us to see it in troubleshooting as well. It's free.
It could be the reversed AM PM line Stacey mentions or maybe something like auto start is messing up if it's actively on.
