PhillipsRespironics is no longer automatically raising pressure

PhillipsRespironics is no longer automatically raising pressure
Hi,

My cpap is supposed to automatically rise in pressure at night, but is no longer doing so.  Could this be because I deleted sleepmapper from our computer?  Help!  What should I do?  I am waking numerous times in the night because of this.

Sleepmapper has no influence on your machine at all. It only reports minimal data your machine sends to the program over a modem line. To see what your machine is doing, download and install the free shareware program OSCAR.

RE: PhillipsRespironics is no longer automatically raising pressure
My pressure starts at 11 (it was recently increased by my doc).  It was 10 & when I’d wake up at night, it would be anywhere from 14 to 18. It’s pretty much staying at 11 whenever I wake up & check it.

Thank you!  Is there a way to download Oscar to my iPhone?

OSCAR only runs on computers. Either Windows, Mac, or Linux operating systems.
