4 Nights of data, am I on the right path?
Hi Everyone

So here is what my data is looking like after 4 nights,  after changing the minimum from 4 to 6 after my first night i felt great. after the first 2 I woke up feeling great,  the last 2 felt a little grougy,  on sunday morning woke up to machine pushing pressure of 16,  my heated tube is set on 1 and humidity setting is set to 4,  i have a-flex on with a setting of 2. and my range is 6-20  with ramp of 6 and 30 minute ramp time  my ahi is staying below 3,   I feel like I need  another adjustment to help tweak my therapy.  do I need a tweak or leave it as is? 

here is the link to my images of screens my sleepy head data 2/16 to 2/19

your help is apprecaited

Bigpapa, the F12 key will work better than your camera. AHI looks acceptable, but the daily details chart would be more revealing. Your minimum pressure of 6 is far too low, assuming your actually need 12-16 cm of therapy pressure, and you really need to bring the minimum ramp pressure up. The reason for looking at the daily detail chart is actually to see if those higher pressures (up to 19) are really helping, or if we should perhaps lock them out.
