[Equipment] Auto CPAP took me on a wild ride but....

The auto mode means it is automatically adjusting all the time, every night, all night. No two nights are the same anyway. The treatment range is set with a minimum and a maximum and the machine stays within that range. As you sleep, and as events happen, the machine adjusts.

If your machine is saying it has 8.5 for all 3 readings, then somehow it got turned back to regular CPAP mode.

In "Auto-trial" the machine act as auto in 30 days, then it go to cpap-mode.
