ROGRAMMING

2.1.5 Puff Ramp Down
This sets the time allowed to ramp down to zero pressure from a hard puff.
When a hard puff has finished, there is a period of time when the pneumatic
pressure is below the Puff Threshold but still above the value for Deadband. This
could be falsely interpreted by the Omni as a soft puff command. Puff Ramp
Down allows the user sufficient time to reach the Deadband without
unintentionally providing a soft puff. If this Deadband is not reached within the
Puff Ramp Down time, a soft puff will be interpreted, provided the pressure is
below the Puff Threshold.
The programmable range is between 0ms and 2000ms in steps of 50ms.
2.1.6 Sip Ramp Up
This sets the time allowed to ramp up to a hard sip from zero pressure.
Whenever a hard sip is attempted, there is a period of time when the
pneumatic pressure is below the Sip Threshold. This could be falsely interpreted
by the Omni as a soft sip command. Different users will have differing abilities in
terms of how quickly they can generate sufficient pressure to pass this threshold.
Sip Ramp Up allows the user more time to reach the Sip Threshold. If this
threshold is not reached within the Sip Ramp Up time, a soft sip will be
interpreted, provided the pressure is above the value set for Deadband.
The programmable range is between 0ms and 2000ms in steps of 50ms.
2.1.7 Sip Ramp Down
This sets the time allowed to ramp down to zero pressure from a hard sip.
When a hard Sip has finished, there is a period of time when the pneumatic
pressure is below the Sip Threshold but still above the value for Deadband. This
could be falsely interpreted by the Omni as a soft sip command. Sip Ramp
Down allows the user sufficient time to reach the Deadband without
unintentionally providing a soft sip. If this Deadband is not reached within the
Sip Ramp Down time, a soft sip will be interpreted, provided the pressure is
below the Sip Threshold.
