Ramp time

Ramp time
The information I've been given about setting ramp time is if I set it to auto, it doesn't go to full pressure until I fall asleep. If I set it at 5 minutes it will ramp up to full pressure even if I'm not asleep. If I set it to off it should ramp up right away. Do I have this right?  My problem is when I set it to 5 minutes or off nothing happens. Is there some other setting involved?   Also, how can I see what the pressure is? Thanks

Along with the time setting there is also a pressure setting that the ramp starts on.

Coffee
Mask Primer

Positional Apnea

Attach OSCAR, etc.

RE: Ramp time
Go into the Clinical Menu and you can turn off the ramp there. Hold the big control knob and home button for 5 seconds and the menu will pop up.
