How to Use the VPAP III ST-A Menus

The VPAP III ST-A provides a set of functions arranged in menus and submenus.
Via the LCD screen, the menus and submenus allow you to view and change the
settings for a particular function. You can access the menus regardless of
whether the VPAP III ST-A is in standby mode or delivering therapy.
Your clinician has preset the menu to either a standard view or a detailed view.
Both of these menus are explained below.
When the VPAP III ST-A is turned on, a Welcome screen is displayed. After the
device self-checks are complete, the VPAP (or Ramp) screen appears.

Ramp Screen

If your clinician has set a maximum ramp time, the Ramp screen is displayed
after the Welcome screen. On the Ramp screen, you can immediately set a ramp
time. Ramp time is the period during which the pressure increases from a low
pressure to the prescribed treatment pressure. See "Ramp Time" on page 17.
Ramp time can be altered in five-minute increments (from OFF to a maximum
ramp time set by your clinician) by using the Up/Down key.

How to Use the Standard Menu

The standard menu allows you to view details about the time used, a summary
of your device settings, and the current software version of your VPAP III ST-A.
The Used (time) screen displays the total number of hours for which the device
has been used. It also displays the number of days the VPAP III ST-A was used
out of the total number of days available for use.
For details on the settings summary screens, see "Settings Summary Screens"
on page 24.
