Autosense for her alarm - usertc - 01-28-2016

I have no trouble falling asleep now, but I keep waking up with my mask on the floor. I put it back on and fall back asleep, but this happens several times each night. This last week, I've only managed 3 to 5 hours of use each night. In another post someone mentioned that I can turn an alarm on so that it will wake me up whenever I take my mask off. I can't find an alarm anywhere on my machine, not even under the clinical settings. I read the manual from front to back and no alarm mentioned. Am I missing something or does the autosense 10 for Her not have an alarm?

AirSense 10 does not have such alarm
Chinstrap worn over the mask or/and hairpin holds the mask in place

Hi Zonk. That's interesting - the AirCurve does have an alarm, under the Options menu, called Leak Alert. Surprising that the AirSense doesn't have it.

Hi DeepBreathing'
Initially, I wrote about the leak alert alarm but changed my mind and deleted it, since both OP machine and mine doesn't have such feature

Bummer Sad I'm tempted to try using barrettes to pin the straps to my head, but I'm afraid I'll wake up with bald spots.

Chinstrap might works but hairpins or barrette is not a good suggestion
Anyway, you got the idea

Sleep-well
