questions about resmed s9 vs s10 - Nytro_Mike - 08-24-2015
Hi everyone, I just started therapy 20 days ago and am having great luck getting adjusted to everything, sleeping way more than ever and energy is through the roof in comparison. I own a second home at the other end of my state so rather than carrying my s10 and take the chance of breaking something I bought an s9 for up there and would like to know if the slimline from the s10 will fit the s9, I will continue to bring the mask until I buy a second mask for up there and hope the line will work. I bought the s9 for $100, I think I got a good deal

Your prescribed pressure shows 16-20, implying APAP. Some of the S9 models are CPAP only, so be sure. Also, if you have RERA issues, the S9 does not see those events. It essentially treats them, but does not flag the data.

It should fit. The hose ends are universal on Resmed machines. Just a thought though, hoses are cheap enough to warrant buying another just in case.

The slimline should fit but you need to set the hose type to slimline as it affects the pressure control response. Does the S9 have that adjustment? If not I would buy it a hose.

An ordinary non-heated hose, either slimline or regular, will fit both machines. I believe the heated hoses are not compatible between machines.
Importantly, what model of AirSense and what model S9 do you have? There is a very wide range of models (especially in the S9) and the two machines you have may not be equally suitable for you.

It came today and is an s9 auto Vpap will this work for me if setup correctly?
RE: questions about resmed s9 vs s10 - justMongo - 08-26-2015
I have the same S9. It's an auto bilevel. It can run in one of 3 modes. Straight CPAP, S-mode BiLevel, or Auto Bilevel.
I don't know which S10 you have; but you should be able to set it up to emulate most of the 10 series machines.
The S9 VPAP auto can also be set to pressures as high as 25. You should request the manual using the links above.
You can narrow the PS parameter to a small number and set IPAPmax and EPAPmin to your 16-20 range.
Be sure to set your hose type in the menu.
Can you be more specific as to which 10 series machine you have?

I believe its an airsense 10 autoset

If I can get settings from my s10 can you help me set it up? I am hoping to avoid bringing it in to have it done.

I am sure that someone will help.
