Respironics PR System One DS460 Pro CPAP Machine with Heated Humidifier & Heated Tubing
The REMstar Pro CPAP with humidifier and heated tubing is the latest line of the PR System One 60 series machines. The Pro provides intelligent solutions with its unique technological advancements like C-Flex Plus, Resistance and Humidity Control, Heated Tubing ,and a comprehensive data management software. All these tools are designed to ensure a results driven therapy session paired with the comfort and personalization you need.
C-Flex Plus
C-Flex Plus combines the flow-based pressure relief at the beginning of exhalation like C-Flex. However C-Flex Plus also incorporates A-Flex technology, and softens the pressure transition that occurs from inhalation to exhalation. This ensures a far more comfortable experience in fixed-CPAP mode. C-Flex Plus includes 3 different transition settings which can be personalized to suit your needs.
Humidity Control and Heated Tubing
The REMstar Pro brings excellent humidity control with advanced technology that analyzes ambient temperature and airflow. By analyzing the ambient temperature and airflow the REMstar is capable of automatically adjusting the humidity in your mask, to match your pre-selected humidity level. There are 3 levels of humidity you can choose from to suit your needs. The heating tube actively works to reduce rainout and automatically adjusts the humidity in your mask, reducing discomfort and increasing the effectiveness of your therapy. There are five different temperatures settings you can select for the tube.
Resistance Control
Respironics developed Resistance Control technology to maintain optimal pressure for any mask that is used with the REMstar Pro. All Respironics CPAP masks include a numbering system that is based on variable resistance characteristics, which enables the REMstar to compensate for different mask types. The result is a persistent and consistent pressure flow no matter what mask is used.
Encore Data Management and Reporting
REMstar has an on board memory that stores information on an SD card which can be read with any SD card reader. The EncoreViewer Software monitors the effectiveness of therapy by generating a series of reports that lead to actionable data.

FAQ
The airflow I am receiving from my REMSTAR Pro seems warm?
Filters are critical part of your CPAP therapy and need to be cleaned routinely. It is recommended disposable filters are replaced every 6 to 12 weeks, on the other hand cleanable filters should be washed weekly and replaced every 6 months. Disposable and Re-Usable Filters are both available for purchase on our website. Another issue that can be a potential cause is the obstruction of air vents caused by your bedding. Make sure the REMstar Pro is away from any type of bedding that could obstruct airflow from the air vents.
The mask alert feature is not working?
First and foremost make sure the mask alert feature is set to ON. Be aware that certain masks will not work with the mask alert, however the mask alert will not affect the performance of the REMstar Pro.
When this machine came out back in the summer of 2012, I wasn't diagnosed with sleep apnea, but tried using it once from a friend. Now I am using it since a year ago, and it's working great for me. The machine has the comfort features such as C-flex + that helps me to breathe out naturally; the optional heated humidifier and tubing provides moist air so I won't feel so dry in the morning with my full face mask.
I didn't know about the three modes this machine has until I purchased one. It is pretty convenience that you could try both the auto and the fixed machine all in one. The Auto-CPAP trial mode only lasts for a short time, to determine best pressure settings for long-term Fixed-CPAP pressure therapy. The CPAP-Check mode monitors my pressure needs every 30 hours and adjusts the best pressure for me. This must be a pretty sturdy machine, because I accidently dropped it once and thought it was broken, but it still works just like when I first got it. No noise. My health has improved impressively because of this machine.
I ended up with this machine and I dont know if it is better or worse than any other machine out there, but what I do know is now that I have my machine I feel GREAT every morning, so thats good. This machine gets 5 stars because it helps ME not because it is better than the other machines out there, I wouldnt know, but this machine makes ME feel GREAT every morning compared to when I wasnt using cpap.
I had never used an auto machine before, and while I was intrigued, I decided to keep with what I knew best and what I had found comfortable for years. The girl on the phone was very friendly and helped me pick out the system one pro which was in lien with what I needed from my prescription.
The biggest difference between this machine and what I had been accustomed to with the older respironics machines is definitely the heated tubing which I did not have on my older series machine. It really helped with my throat in the morning after use. Overall I am very satisfied so far with the machine, but I have only had it for a few weeks. Giving the machine a 4 but the customer service, price, and the fact that I got my machine so quickly bumps it up to a 5!
