EPAP

Sets the pressure to be delivered to the patient when the device is cycled into expiration.

S, ST, T: 3–25 cm H2O (3–25 hPa) ASV: 4 - 15 cm H2O 0.2 cm H2O (0.2 hPa) increments

Max IPAP

Sets the maximum IPAP (inspiratory pressure) delivered by the device.

4-25 cm H2O (4-25 hPa), 0.2 cm H2O (0.2 hPa) increments.

Min EPAP

Sets the minimum EPAP (expiratory pressure) delivered by the device.
