Why cripple the option, if there is no difference on how the unit works. Another reason is safety A setting of 4-20 on a CPAP is pretty safe. That is at most a PS of 3 applied om a sliding scale. on a BiLevel the same 4-20 has been taken as EPAP of 4 and IPAP of 20 which means a PS of 16, a completely different story. I've seen that mistake made by both AB members and Sleep Clinics setting a machine up that way.
