One of these is from Thurs. Nov. 14th (a bad night of sleep and horrible dreams of being killed, plus a killer headache the next day, due to - I believe - my F20 with quiet elbow not adequately venting out my air), and the other is from Tues. Nov. 19th (a good night of sleep, thanks to switching to the well-venting loud elbow for the F20).

Which data point indicates that air is venting out?

Which data point indicates that air is venting out?
I'm wanting to analyze my data to see if I can determine (by numbers) if my mask was not venting any/enough air. Which data point gives that info? Leak rate? Minute vent? Anything?

Hydrangea I'm sure you're aware the Dreamstation has a setting for mask type, eg X1, X2 etc. Perhaps you need to adjust this, especially as you're using a non-Philips mask.

Thanks. Yeah, I'm aware. Ever since my P10s tried to smother me in my sleep, I've been going back and forth among my other masks to find "the one". So I figured I'd just leave the mask setting where it's at, to take 1 less moving component out of the picture. P.S. How did you know I haven't been keeping that setting matched with my mask? Lucky guess? Or can you tell from my data?

Intentional, unintentional, or total leak/vent.
