device starts blowing about 30 mins after being turned off - willid3 - 08-25-2022
i have a new ResMed air sense 11 that will turn itself on about 30 mins after i turned it off and removed the humidifier tank. seems to run about 10 seconds, and then it turns itself off again. i dont see any messages (other than that diagnostic message that diagnostics are complete no issue found. which is displayed with 30 seconds of turning it off). this wakes my wife up as she doesnt get up when i do usually, and its unexpected. i have a ResMed A10 before, and it didnt do this

When you turn it off in the morning hold the power button down for a few seconds. This should shut the unit down completely, at least it did on the previous model.
This will get you by until you can find the real solution. You ight try downloading the clinician's manual and see if you find out more about that feature.

There is a 20 minute cool down cycle that it enters when turned off. That is normal. It should not be howling kile it does if you just remove your mask.

this happens after that ends. its not as disruptive as the cool down cycle is. and it lasts about 10 seconds
