I need some help setting up my AirCurve 10 Vauto please

I need some help setting up my AirCurve 10 Vauto please
This is probably been asked before I would think.

I bought a ResMed AirCurve 10 and I want to set it up in VAuto mode.  I have been using an AirSense 11 in APAP mode for 2 years.  My apnea level is very low but my Flow limitation is higher than it should be.

I am enclosing a screenshot from OSCAR so that if you want to help, you can see my Device Settings.  Thank you in advance for any help you will provide to me.

Use the VAuto mode

EPAP Min 11 to 12 to be similar to your AutoSet

IPAP Max 15 again similar to your AutoSet Max

PS 4 to gain one extra level pressure differential above EPR 3 on the AutoSet
Mask Primer

Positional Apnea

Attach OSCAR, etc.

Thank you.

I am not sure what I should set for Ti Min and Ti Max, Trigger and Cycle.  I read about them in the clinician manual and understand them but I don't know what to set them to.

Follow Dave's recommendations. Do not adjust any of the parameters you listed until we see a screenshot of your Daily screen.

Correct, those other settings would be best at default unless there's a need to edit. The most needful edit is Trigger for those with frequent CA in OSCAR.
Mask Primer

Positional Apnea

Attach OSCAR, etc.
