to the respiratory therapy yet.
The device offers delay time settings from zero (prescribed therapy pressure
starts immediately) to 45 minutes (prescribed therapy pressure is gradually built
up within 45 minutes).
The initial ramp pressure (P-Ramp) can be set between 4 hPa and the pre-
scribed pressure.
