After three minutes, the pressure reverts to the set pressure and treatment will
begin.
If you do not wish to wait three minutes, hold down the Start/Stop key
•
for at least three seconds to start treatment immediately.
If you press the Start/Stop key for less than three seconds, the device
•
will return to standby mode (the RAMP or SETTLING screen is displayed).

Figure 5: Treatment screens (all modes)
The treatment screens contain the following information:
Treatment mode: Mode of treatment set by your clinician. Options are: CPAP,
S and VAuto.
Ramping indicator: (CPAP mode, S mode) Appears if the VPAP Auto is in ramp
mode. This disappears once the ramp time has elapsed.
Settling indicator: (VAuto mode) Appears if the VPAP Auto is in settling mode.
This disappears once the settling time has elapsed.
Set pressure(s): In CPAP mode, this displays the set treatment pressure
(centimeters of water). In S mode, it displays exhalation and inhalation pressures
(centimeters of water). In VAuto mode, it displays the EPAP and IPAP pressures
(centimeters of water).
Apnea indicator: (CPAP mode, VAuto mode) Visual indicator that displays an "A"
to indicate an apnea is occurring.
