ASV question? - Midge 82 - 01-16-2020

Hi. I have central sleep apnea And have been using a Resmed Aircurve 10 ASV for almost 3.5 years. It started making a horrific noise, so the provider replaced the machine 

While the new machine is said to be (and appears to be) identical to the old one, I’ve noticed one significant difference: When I removed the mask (after getting up during the night) and then put it back on, the old one used to automatically go back on without my having to hit the start button. The new machine does not resume working unless I hit the start button. If there’s a setting that address is it, I can’t figure out what it is. Does anyone know if there’s a way to make the machine automatically resume once I put the mask back on?  (This is preferable for me since I sometimes fall asleep without turning it back on.)

Many thanks!
Midge82.

Hold in the round knob and home button for about 5 seconds.  This will give access to the clinician menu.  From there, select options and make sure Smart Start is turned on.
