Instructions for Entering the
Clinician Setup Mode for the
Respironics REMstar Virtuoso CPAP Machine
First,
with the machine plugged into a wall outlet, unplug the cord from the
back of the CPAP. Now, press and hold down the two user buttons (located
under the display) while plugging the cord back into the CPAP, and
continue to hold the buttons down until the CPAP beeps. This will
indicate that the CPAP is in the Therapy Setup Menu mode.
The
display will show the language setting. If the setting is correct, press
the button below “Yes” to continue to the next setting.
Next the
mode setting will be displayed, either AUTO, CPAP or SPLITNIGHT. If the
mode is correct, press the user button below YES. To change the mode,
press the user button below NO until the proper one is displayed, then
press YES.
The Minimum Pressure will be displayed. To change the
setting, press the button below +1 until the correct pressure appears.
Press the user button below YES to confirm and go to the next setting.
The
Maximum Pressure symbol will be displayed. To change the setting, press
the button below +1 until the correct pressure appears. Press the user
button below YES to confirm and go to the next setting.
For CPAP Mode: Set both the Minimum and Maximum Pressures at the same level.
The
Mask Alert setting will be displayed next. This is a beeping noise the
machine makes when a large, continuous air leak such as mask removal is
detected. To change the setting, press the user button below NO. Press
the user button below YES to confirm and go to the next setting.
The
Auto-On setting will be displayed. Press the user button below YES or
NO to select whether or not you want this setting. The Auto-Off option
