mask fit function

mask fit function
Does anyone know the pressure that the 'Resmed Airsence 10 Autoset for her' (set up for 'ACAP for her' mode), runs at in the 'mask fit' function?
Is it variable?
If so, can someone tell me how?
(get good mask fit with when running the test, and when it starts (4cm H2O), but get leaks in the night when the pressure is higher).
Thanks,
DOGDOG's wife (newbie)

RE: mask fit function
I always thought that it went to your max pressure setting but I just tested mine out cause I haven't used it in years and it appeared to go up to 16 cm (my max is only 14 cm). I noticed if you run mask fit on its own it just pressurizes to a certain point and then shuts off as soon as you end mask fit, if you already have machine running and do mask fit it pressurizes and then when you end it pressure slowly drops a couple cm each breath and it switches to a screen you can see the current pressure (which is how I determined it was going up to 16 cm). I tried adjusting my max pressure down to 8 cm and rerunning and mask fit still appeared to go up to 16 cm so I believe mask fit is just a fixed 16 cm pressure (at least on my vauto). If your pressures are going about 16 cm then this may not be adequate but I am not aware of any way to change mask fit pressures.
