The backlight for this machine either shuts off automatically after a short intreval or can be set to off.
The machine display is lit for ease of reading.
These machines were designed with a woman's lifestyle in mind.
Timed (T) or Spontaneous Timed (ST) modes provide a customizable backup rate that forces the machine to switch from exhalation to inhalation. In ST Mode, the machine monitors the breathing cycle and switches from EPAP to IPAP once the backup time is met or whenever the break is detected through the sensors; whichever occurs first. The time aspect is only meant to act as a backup respiratory rate to the (S) function (see Spontaneous). This is used for patients with central sleep apnea, or those who need non-invasive mechanical ventilation.
Spontaneous (S) mode tells the machine to start blowing at IPAP pressure with no specific interval set. The machine must wait and detect a break in the breathing cycle before reacting, switching from exhalation to inhalation. If a backup rate is needed, then the unit will need a time interval setting and will be marked 'Yes' on the Timed property.
This feature detects excessive mask leaks due to poor cushion seal or when a user stops therapy by removing a mask when in use. The alert can be in the form of an audible alarm (ALARM) or a text message on the unit's LCD display (LCD).
This feature turns the machines off and on when putting on or taking off the mask. When you put your mask on the machines senses you breathing and turns itself on. Take off the mask and the machine turns off.
Altitude Adjustment is defined as the machine's ability to compensate for changes in altitude. Compensation can either occur manually or automatically. Manual adjustments occur within the Setup Menu and must be set by the user. Automatic requires no user intervention.
Software is an option on some CPAP machines. The software can give details on compliance and performance. The patient or physician downloads the data from the CPAP machine to determine how long a patient has used their machine each night and how well the machine is working to stop Apnea/Hypopnea events. This property shows the software package to use for machine that has the ability to transfer data to your computer and report Hours of Usage. See Advanced Software for a list of machines that can report AHI or Leakage.
This property marks the machines that have the ability to record performance data on a removable card. Some machines that are flagged as having software (seeOptional Software), do not have removable memory cards, rather instead, records information on-board and must use a download cable to retrieve the data from the machine.
Identifies which machines are data capable and have the ability to track your therapy progress over time. The machine captures key metrics like AHI (Apnea/Hypopnea Index), Leakage, and most pressure used. Depending on the machine, the data can be retrieved through an on Machine Screen Display (MSD), through Optional Software (OS), and/or through SmartCode (SC).
An integrated battery pack attaches to and functions seamlessly with the machine it is integrated with. It allows your CPAP to run on AC and fail over to the DC battery only if necessary.
A 'Yes' answer indicates that the CPAP Machine has an optional DC cable that plugs directly into a DC port. This allows you to use a DC power source, such as a battery or car cigarette lighter outlet. Some optional DC cables include alligator clips to connect directly to battery terminals. See the "Power" tab of the machine's product page for more detailed information on how the machine works with alternate power sources, and what optional cables and batteries are compatible.
Domestic Voltage is the voltage that is used with a standard wall outlet in the United States and ranges from 100-120 volts. International Voltage can range from 220v-240v AC.
Indicates which machines have a DC port in which you can use to connect a battery pack or a deep cycle marine battery with an optional DC cable. This is different from an integrated battery that works only with the machine it was designed for. (i.e. Everest CPAP Machine) see property Integrated Battery
This is the maximum altitude at which the machine will properly operate.
Leak Compensation is a machine feature that identifies mask leaks and adjusts to maintain the delivered pressure as set. If marked N/A assume the information is not available due to being out of production or unavailable.
This property defines whether the machine is capable of continuously blowing a constant pressure. All CPAP machines are defined as 'continuous', but some BiPAP's and APAP's also come with a CPAP mode; some BiPAP and BiLevel machines Do NOT. By setting the IPAP and EPAP to the same pressure, a CPAP Mode is achieved, preventing the EPAP pressure from dropping.
The Ramp feature allows the user to start treatment at a lower pressure to fall asleep with, gradually raising the pressure over a set time. This is a comfort setting and can set from 0 to 45 minutes on most CPAP machines.
Pressure Relief is a feature that lowers your therapy pressure to help with difficulties breathing against the machine's airflow, providing a more comfortable and natural breathing pattern. Assistance can occur on the Exhalation, on the Inhalation, and on both exhalation and inhalation at the same time.
This Property lists the operating range for the Exhalation Positive Airway Pressure (EPAP). This is the pressure setting used when you exhale. EPAP is always lower than the IPAP (inhalation) pressure, making breathing out easier and more comfortable.
A CPAP (Constant Positive Air Pressure) delivers continuous airflow at a prescribed pressure at 4cm to 30cm. APAP operates between a range and BiPAP machines are a mix of ranges and constant pressures. This pressure is measured in centimeters of water pressure (H2O) and 4-20cm is average pressure range on most CPAP machines.
This property defines whether the machine automatically adjusts pressure to meet the needs of the CPAP user on a breath-by-breath basis. All APAP machines are defined as 'Auto Adjusting', but some BiPAP's also use an Auto feature on both the IPAP and EPAP. If not marked, Yes, assume the machine does not have AUTO capabilities.
This is the maximum water capacity held by the chamber of the compatible humidifier.
This indicates that the machine has an integrated heated hose option to enhance humidification and reduce rainout. An integrated headed hose receives power directly from the machine and does not require a power supply. The tube's heat settings are set through the machine menu screen.
A yes in this field indicates the machine and humidifier have technology to reduce rainout, the water that collects in a hose when using a heated humidifier. Sensors measure the air temperature in the room and adjust the amount of heat and moisture delivered to the mask to reduce or omit rainout.
This property identifies how the machine incorporates a Heated Humidifier. Build In humidifiers are built into the CPAP machine and cannot be separated from the machine. Integrated humidifiers connect directly to the CPAP machine and they can only be used with compatible CPAP machines. With Integrated humidifiers, the CPAP machine, can be separated and used without the humidifier. CPAP machines that do not have a built in humidifier and do not have an integrated humidifier option have to use a Stand Alone humidifier as the machine's heated humidifier option. Stand Alone humidifiers can be used with any machine and connect to the CPAP machine with an additional hose.
Identifies which CPAP has a humidifier that is built into the CPAP. Built-In humidifiers cannot be separated from the CPAP machine.
This indicates which heated humidifier works best with the listed CPAP machine. In some instances, Built-in is used to describe a machine/humidifier combination system. The Fisher and Paykel HC150 was used for machines that do not have an integrated or built in humidifier system.
Measures the overall dimension of the machine only. Machines with a built-in humidifier are marked NA and must refer to Entire Size dimensions.
This is the size of the CPAP with Heated Humidifier in its travel bag.
This is the combined dimensions of the CPAP with the Heated humidifier.
This is the combined weight of the machine, heated humidifier, power cables, bag and hose. The weight of the shipping box is not included in the number.
This is the actual weight of the CPAP Machine without any accessories, power cord, or humidifier. Machines with a weight 3lbs or less are also identified in the Under 3 lbs property.
This measures only the weight of the machine and does not include total weight of power cables, bag, additional batteries or non-built-in humidifiers.
Looking to travel? We have found some machines are easier to travel with than others. These smaller and more lightweight machines are still robust enough for constant daily use as well as travel.
This indicates which manuals are included with the purchase of a CPAP machine. Most all machines come with a patient manual; also called 'user manual', which may or may not have pressure setting instructions. Some machines come with both the patient and quick setup guide or both patient and clinician manuals.
This identifies which machines have a decibel rating of 29 and lower. This does not account for use with the humidifier attached, which could supply additional volume that can muffle or amplify sound. This property does not account for noise that travels through the CPAP tubing, seemingly sounding louder than the measured db rating.
This is the level of sound the machine produces at a pressure of 10cm, standing 1 meter away or roughly 3 feet from machine. Measured in Decibels, the values also indicate whether the machine is considered a "quiet CPAP"; see Quiet property.
Warranty is the length of time that the manufacturer will guarantee a product to be free of defects. Warranties vary in length depending on manufacturer, but generally all machines come with a 2 Year Warranty.
This identifies the machine as continuous, auto adjusting, or bilevel operation. This does not identify whether the machine automatically adjusts pressure. Auto adjusting refers to APAP, whereas BiPAP Auto is differentiated using the Auto Pressure Adjustment property. BiPAP machines are defined further using Spontaneous or Timed properties.
A CPAP machine blows one constant pressure of air into your passageway throughout the night. Your ideal pressure was determined during your sleep study.
A BiPAP machine delivers two separate pressures of air; One when the patient inhales and a separate pressure when they exhale. The machine alternates between the two set pressures to help optimize your sleep apnea treatment.
An APAP machine automatically adjusts on a breath by breath basis to blow the minimum pressure needed to keep your airway open during sleep. This allows your machine to provide you with your ideal pressure nightly.

Using Your New DreamStation Go for the First Time
When your DreamStation Go first arrives, there is no need to set the therapy pressure, as this was done before we shipped it to you. As you unpack the box, you'll find the hose, cord, and the DreamStation Go along with a few other accessories.
To prepare your DreamStation Go for the first use, you'll need to follow these instructions.
Connect the hose to the machine and your mask, ensuring the connections are tight on both. You may need to install the mask adapter to the end of the included 12mm hose to make the connection to your preferred mask.
Connect the power cord and plug into the appropriate wall outlet and then plug the cord into your machine.
Press the therapy on/off button on top of the machine to start therapy.
How to Clean a CPAP Hose
Run a mixture of mild soap and water through your hose. As an alternative, you can use vinegar.
Rinse with clean water until all suds have been removed.
Hang over a towel rack to drip dry.
How to Replace the Filter
Your DreamStation Go is designed to work with either a reusable pollen filter or a disposable fine filter. Your new machine uses one or the other but not both. Only one filter can be installed in the machine at a time.
The reusable filter should be washed regularly and replaced around every six months while the disposable fine filter should be disposed of when discolored or after 30 days. Do not wash the disposable filter.
Stop therapy and unplug your DreamStation Go from the wall outlet.
Turn the machine over so that the bottom is facing up, and locate the slot for the filters near the curved edge of the device.
Pull the filter out and away.
Replace the filter by sliding it back into the slot.
Hose Tips
The included 12mm Micro Tube is a smaller diameter than other CPAP hoses. If you'd like a larger hose, be sure to change the hose setting on the machine otherwise you may not get your prescribed pressure.
You should also be aware that the hose will come with an adapter unattached which you'll need to connect to many masks. You should attach the connector before trying to connect to the mask.
USB Port Tips
The USB port on the DreamStation Go is intended to charge a mobile device and should not be used for any other application. For adequate use, ensure no other accessories are plugged into the mobile device when connected to the DreamStation Go.
The DreamStation Go Auto accepts AC power from 100 - 240V AC meaning it can be used domestically or abroad. If using outside of the U.S. a plug adapter will be needed such as the World Traveler Power Adapter Plugs.
6 FT & 10 FT Power Cords
The DreamStation Go comes with a standard 6 FT Power Cord, but it can be upgraded to an OPTIONAL10 FT Power Cord at an additional cost.
BATTERY WON'T POWER MACHINE AND HUMIDIFIER: The DreamStation Go is designed so that you can't use both the machine and humidifier at the same time. When running on battery power, expect to have the humidifier off.
The Portable Outlet is a great way to power this CPAP machine, as well as many others. The Portable Outlet converts the battery's stored DC power into convenient outlet power, allowing you to power any CPAP machine or electrical device using the main power supply that came with the device. The Portable Outlet is so versatile it can power TVs, stereos, blenders... anything! It also includes convenient USB ports that allow you to charge your phone or tablet while charging your CPAP.
The OPTONAL DreamStation Go Overnight Battery is an integrated battery option for the DreamStation Go that connects directly to the machine. The manufacturer suggests that with a pressure of 10 cm H2O the expected run time is 13 hours, meaning most users can expect a full night of run time. Run times will vary depending on pressure setting, altitude, and mask fit.
The Medistrom Pilot-24 Lite is both a travel battery and a battery backup available for the DreamStation Go. Provided you purchase the DreamStation Go and Luna Adapter Kit, you can connect the Medistrom Pilot-24 Lite to the DreamStation Go and Luna CPAP Machines. The Pilot-24 Lite allows you to take your DreamStation Go on the road, down the trail, or through the air; providing a full night of therapy while you're off-grid. It can also be used as a battery backup, providing failover power for your CPAP machine in the event of power loss.
I use this CPAP everyday, not just travel, and I love it. It is much quieter than my old machine, a Phillips Respironics REMstar which developed an annoying weeping sound. At home I use it with the humidifier but my nasal passages do not feel too dried out when I don't use it while traveling. It's compact size and light weight make it easy to pack. more...

Excellent Auto CPAP for Home or Travel
I have now been using this CPAP and the Heated Humidifier for a week. I love it.
Size: It is not tiny, but it is small relative to other Auto CPAPSs and compared to the one I previously used for travel. I like the shape -- with the humidifier, it is an even rectangular box which fits easily into a suitcase or carryon.
Humidifier: The humidifier holds 250ml (~1 Cup) of water. I was concerned that that volume would be insufficient but it is not. The machine has a function which rations the humidity water over the number of hours you sleep. You tell the machine how long you sleep, it makes sure you don't run out of water. I have not had an issue with insufficient humidity. The clean up is easy, too. I empty the remaining water, wipe it out with a clean cloth and let the rest evaporate during the day. I live in a dry climate, so that may be easier where I live than in a place with high humidity.
Noise: The unit is a bit noisier than my current base unit (Resmed S-9) but not much. After one night, I was used to it. My wife is not bothered by it.
Mask Air: I really like the Auto CPAP function. With my current base unit, air is constantly pushed into the mask, resulting in venting, noise and drafts around the mask. The DreamStation pushes air only when you need it, resulting in very little excess air being vented.
Hose: The thinner tubing is great. It is very lightweight and seems very unobtrusive at might. I use a Resmed AirFit™ P10 nasal pillow which works well with the included hose adapter.
Overall, this is a great machine. While I bought it for travel, I am thinking of substituting it as my base machine. more...
