ResMed S9 Clinical Settings - dneilsen4580 - 11-23-2022
Hi,
I have just changed from a nasal pillow to the new ResMED F30i face mask.
I changed the mask type in the clinical settings from PILLOW to FACE.
When I did that the Smart Start feature turned OFF and I can't turn it on (it's "grayed" out)
Any ideas?

Hi dneilsen4580! -
The SmartStart feature is not compatible with an FFM setting on an S9. This is listed in the User manual. For some reason, I believe this was changed in the last firmware version on the S9. Mine would not allow me to turn SmartStart on when in the FFM setting, but would work if I set it to either Nasal or Pillows setting. After turning it on, I could switch to the FFM setting, and it would remain active.

I have both SmartStart and FFM on my S9.

Had a chat with a ResMed consultant today.
They advised me that, for the S9 in Australia, the "Full Face" setting is not compatible with "SmartStart".
If a firmware upgrade to allow SmartStart is possible, I am not sure how I would go about getting a firmware upgrade without it costing me money.
I had already asked about getting my machine serviced but the response was "If it's still working properly, then you don't need a service."
