pressure pulse
I have searched the forum and wiki to find out what a pressure pulse is. I have about 50 marks on my flow rate that says pressure pulse(14). What is it and is it important?

RE: pressure pulse
That is an exploratory pulse of pressure on a PR machine to see if you would need another pressure. Part of your machines auto algorithm.

RE: pressure pulse
Let's call it CPAP SONAR. It sends those pulses out to see if enemy throat pirates have closed your throat or if it remains open.
