machine problems - Jason777 - 03-28-2015

I am having trouble with my vpap auto 25 resmed machine.I sent it off to resmed to get fixed(water had gotten into the machine) and when it came back it had the automatic shutdown feature.Machine does this when it feels there a leak in the mask.There is no leak or not enough of one to wake me up.I am an insomniac and getting woken up every 20 minutes is a bad thing.

Hi Jason777, welcome to Apnea Board.

I would think the automatic shutdown feature can be disabled by entering the Clinician Menu and turning that feature off.

Instructions for how to enter the Clinician Menu and for how to request by email the Clinician Guide (set-up manual) for your machine are included here (scroll down after following the link):

Take care,

Hi Jason777,
Hopefully, you are able to get your machine to work after you get the manual.
BTW, WELCOME! to the forum.!
Much success to you as you continue your CPAP therapy.

I would think the auto off/auto on feature can be disabled. Best of luck in your therapy!
