Error (!) machine won't work - veep - 08-11-2013

Before I send it off the the lab (warranty expires) I wanted know if there was a simple solution to this, like some hidden factory reset button combo or any other solution I can do at home and not be charged hundreds of dollars for.

The machine displays the (!) sign , beeps twice continuously and the buttons are flashing.


Thanks.

Machine is REMstar Auto M series with humidifier.

The manual says that's a 'device error' and if it doesn't go away after unplugging the machine and plugging it back in, that you have to call your equipment provider for service.

REMstar PAP machines will present an error code on the screen when there is an error

Sometimes its cheaper to buy a newer data capable machine than spending money repairing an old one

Thanks mate.
I'm not seeing any numbered code expect for a symbol of a "!" inside a triangle. Is there a way to get more detailed info on the actual code?

Hi Veep, I have the same model with the same problem. It’s my spare machine. I removed the main blower assembly from the humidifier assembly. I opened up the blower assembly(4 screws), and removed the small circuit board attached to the rubber hose attachment. On that board is a CR2032 watch battery. Mine was reading .12 volts. Supposed to be 3v. I desoldered the three prongs and removed the old battery. Peeled off the spot welded metal strips and re-soldered them onto a new battery. Re-attached the 3 prongs back on board with solder and reassembled blower assembly. Re-attached humidifier assembly to blower assembly and plugged in. Unit works like new again. Cost me $5 for new battery and a half hour of my time. Hope it works out for you.
