Flex Screen
Note: “Bi-Flex” shown above will display as the current Flex mode chosen by the provider.
• Flex - The Flex comfort feature allows you to adjust the level of air pressure relief that you feel when you exhale
during therapy. Your home care provider can enable or disable this feature. When your provider enables Flex, a
level will already be set for you on the device. If this is not comfortable, you can increase or decrease the setting.
The setting of “1” provides a small amount of pressure relief, with higher numbers providing additional relief. If the
provider has disabled this feature, this setting will not display.
Note: This same setting is also available under the “Setup” screen.
• Rise time - Rise time is the time it takes for the device to change from EPAP to IPAP. This screen allows you to
adjust the rise time so you can nd the desired setting. This is only available if the device is in Bi-level or Auto Bi-level
mode and Bi-Flex has been disabled.
• 1 sets Rise Time to 1 (200 msec).
• 2 sets Rise Time to 2 (300 msec).
• 3 sets Rise Time to 3 (400 msec).
Note: This setting will not display if your provider has not enabled Rise time on your device.
Note: This same setting is also available under the “Setup” screen.
• Flex demo - The Flex setting allows you to set the Flex level prior to beginning therapy. The Flex demo setting
allows you to try out the different Flex settings in real time. After a period of time of inactivity, the device will
stop therapy and will use the last Flex demo setting as the new Flex setting for your device. When therapy is again
started from the Home screen, the device will operate using the new Flex setting. If the provider has disabled this
feature, this setting will not display.
• Rise time demo - The Rise time demo setting allows you to try out the different Rise time settings in real time.
After a period of time of inactivity, the device will stop therapy and will use the last Rise time demo setting as the
new Rise time setting for your device. When therapy is again started from the Home screen, the device will operate
using the new Rise time setting. If the provider has disabled this feature, this setting will not display.
