Flow limitations graph

Flow limitations graph
Hello, I’m trying to track down any issues with flow limitations and adjust settings. Please help me understand what I’m seeing on the attached flow rate chart. Is this hesitation upon inhale?  Can something be adjusted to achieve more of a sine wave on this?  Thank you.

RE: Flow limitations graph
Your PS appears to be too low. You might try upping it to 3.6 to 4.0. This may induce CA's. If so, set the Trigger to High or Very High in order to reduce or eliminate them.
