5.7 Switching softSTART on/off

ventilation pressure when falling asleep. You can set a pressure
different to the prescribed therapy pressure. When switched on,
the therapy device sets this softSTART pressure. The pressure then
increases slowly within the specified period or drops after the
specified period (maximum 45 minutes) to the therapy level.
This function is suitable for patients who find a high or low
pressure uncomfortable when awake and cannot fall asleep.
