Tube Type
This setting allows you to select the correct size diameter tubing
that you are using with the device. You can choose either (22) for the
Philips Respironics 22 mm tubing, or (15) for the Philips Respironics 15
mm tubing. When using Heated Tubing, the device will automatically
change this setting to the appropriate tubing type (15H).
Tube Type Lock
This enables you to lock the Tube Type setting for either the 15 mm or
the 22 mm tubing if you do not want the patient to change it.
Mask Type
This setting allows you to select the appropriate Mask Type resistance
setting (also known as System One Resistance Control) for your Philips
Respironics mask. This feature allows the device to adjust the level of
pressure compensation to match your mask. Refer to the packaging of
your mask to identify the resistance setting for your mask.
Note: It is important to use the appropriate Mask Type resistance
setting to ensure proper pressure delivery to the patient.
Mask Type
Lock
This enables you to lock the Mask Type resistance setting if you do not

Check Mask Fit
You can enable or disable the check mask fit setting. This feature
allows the patient to check the fit of their mask prior to starting
therapy. This is done by measuring the amount of leak in the patient
circuit.
