Have a philips bipap- machine won’t let me change PS anymore?
Hi I have a bipap and while testing it out the machine declared it won’t let me hangs PS anymore, I don’t think I can go to my dms for support any idea how to fix this as this is really important?

What model is your machine? Do you know how to enter the clinician menu?

I have a philips respironics Auto SV. Even with the clinical settings I still can't change the PS settings. I am kind of freaking out b/c the PS is key to treating UARS and if it says that its zero I am kind of screwed.

I'm guessing the machine is in some mode that won't allow PS changes. I would check the clinician's manual for information on the different modes of operation.

What exact model do you have? Dreamstation (900X110), 960P, or 950P?

I vaguely remember that it's not especially intuitive about which number you have to change first to make sure PSmax > PSmin and EPAPmin+PSmax < MaxPressure. Have you made sure you've increased the necessary maximum before trying to change the PS? For example, can you set PSmax to 10 first and then raise PSmin above 0?
