How to adjust clear airway apnea detection threshhold?

How to adjust clear airway apnea detection threshhold?
I am using a ResMed Airsense 10 Autoset.  I often find that numerous clear airway apneas are reported with durations of 10 to 12 seconds, even when I am awake in the morning but have not yet removed the mask (trying to go back to sleep).  This raises my reported AHI.  With my normal relaxed respirtion rate, 10 to 15 seconds is not unusual for me between exhale and inhale movement.  Is there a machine adjustment where I can raise the CA detection level from 10 seconds to maybe 15 or 20 seconds?

I am not aware of any way a user can alter the detection algorithm in a ResMed Airsense 10 Autoset.

What you are asking for is hard-coded into the CPAP's firmware. No adjustment of this is possible.
