Aflex, Travel Friendly, Supports Software, Auto Adjusts
Product Overview
The M Series Auto is a small and feature packed CPAP that looks more like a stylish clock radio than a CPAP.
It easily packs away in your carry on luggage, and has an incredible number of high-tech features, including the new A-Flex comfort feature, self-adjusting pressure, and powerful clinical data features, on-board.
The REMstar Auto M Series with A-Flex represents an amazing new chapter in pressure therapy. Not only does it make each breath more comfortable at inhalation and exhalation, the REMstar Auto also adjusts overall therapy to accommodate the patients therapy needs due to changes in lifestyle or progression of disease state.
A-Flex is delivered by our clinically proven auto algorithm that maintains effective therapy at minimal pressures making this combination even better for patients.
A-Flex is a comfort feature built on top of the REMstar Auto algorithm. If breathing events occur, the auto algorithm raises the A-Flex pressure profile to eliminate those events, while simultaneously making sure that pressure never rises to a level thats unnecessarily or uncomfortably high.

Power Options
Universal Power
The M Series Auto operates automatically between 100 - 240v AC. When traveling either inside or outside the USA, there are no switches to switch or fuses to change. The machine will automatically sense what voltage is needed and set itself to run on the power needed.
The user will need to adapt the plug that goes into the wall to fit the style of outlet socket that is being used. This is simply done with a Power Adapter Plug kit. This is the same type of plug adapter that would be used with a hair dryer or an electric shaver.
The M Series Auto comes equipped with a DC plug on the back of the unit. This allows the user to connect the CPAP to an external DC battery source.
Using a Respironics, 12volt DC Power Cord the Remstar Auto M Series can be powered by plugging into a cigarette lighter plug. This is ideal for traveling by car, boat, or recreational vehicle that is equipped with a cigarette lighter plug.
It is recommended that you use a 100 amp hour, 12v DC deep cycle marine battery for operating you CPAP machine when not connected to 110v AC /230v AC.
There are two cables needed to configure the M Series Auto with a Marine Deep Cycle Battery. They fit together to make a connection from the back of the M Series Remstar Auto to the battery clip terminals on the marine battery.
Here are the links to the cables needed to hook up to a marine style battery. Both cables are needed.
The Respironics Battery Pack has been a long standing favorite of our customer’s. It weighs in at 13lbs and can be carried easily with its shoulder strap.
This battery pack will give roughly 26 hours of use, depending on the cpap pressure setting. (Results may vary.)

User Reviews
Great Machine
June 30, 2009
(5 out of 5) by James O, Amarillo, TX
"Super machine even though it does about what my other Respironics machine (CPAP with C-Flex) did except now I have the information to go with it. I really do enjoy being able to track my own progress and review my own experiences with the mask, etc. since my sleep doc has already bled most of the major funds from my condition so I get the periodic 5 minutes of chat every 6 months. Now I can track my own progress and go back to being my own doc! This one is quiet and does what it should do with lots of options"

"This is the quietest machine I have ever used. Am using my previous mask and there is just no noise at all and the mask fits much better."

M Series Auto CPAP with A-Flex
April 04, 2009
(5 out of 5) by Richard A, CA
"This machine is great in that it only gives the pressure needed when it is needed, which makes it easy to get used too and very comfortable to sleep. I previously had a machine that was at a constant pressure and had many issues sleeping with it due to the high pressure setting, so I did not use it as much as I should of. I don't have any issues sleeping with this machine. I like the improved water resevoir on this machine, it seems to seal much better. The price at CPAP.com was very reasonable, especially since it was not covered under my insurance."
