REMstar error codes
From Apnea Board Wiki
REMstar PAP machines will present an error code when there is an error. If the machine only says "Service Required", it is usually a fatal error. This will happen with water damage that has caused a short circuit.
Below are the error codes for the REMstar xPAP machines.
