Pressure difference between Machines on Auto Set
Why does my AirMini run about 2 cm H2O less pressure then with my Airsense 10?  Just curious.

RE: Pressure difference between Machines on Auto Set
How are you measuring the difference? Are both CPAPs set to the same pressure?

RE: Pressure difference between Machines on Auto Set
I am using the autoset feature on both.  My Airsense 10 runs at about an 11 on average and the AirMini at about a 9.

RE: Pressure difference between Machines on Auto Set
Since each sleep session is a variable, the only thing that comes to mind is to measure both with a manometer at the same set pressure. This will determine if the pressure sensors are set correctly.
