reaching a little here: your flow limitations look low / good (no med or 95% indicated) but to my unpracticed eye max 0.81 & 0.75 seem a little high for an autoset (in my limited experience many autoset FL graphs are of the 'grassy' kind, many and low). it could be something like the occasional high FL causing an arousal which contributes to your feeling tired in the morning. I've never experienced the pressure pulses people talk about but if the autoset uses them, and I think I read they do, something like that could be causing arousals you aren't aware of. IDK, but if you post a couple random 2 minute screenshots of your flow rate and the other charts the experts ask to see, someone might notice something.

Thanks for your response! im open to try anything.. IM posting up a few graphs of the flow limit for random 2 minute intervals. I hope someone with a trained eye can look into them..

yes, I too hope someone with a trained eye chimes in. meanwhile, notice the top left of the flow rate graph shows duration. easiest way to specify the view resolution is to go to Daily/Events, scroll to bottom left and move the slider to the desired number. also look for links in some of the members' signatures and elsewhere re how to set up charts and screenshots to get all the info they want in one view. sorry I don't have the link handy but it should be easy to find. I only have enough experience to be dangerous so I'll leave it to others from here.
