SmartStart™

The VPAP has a function called SmartStart which can be enabled by your clinician. If SmartStart is enabled, VPAP will start automatically when you breathe into the mask and will stop automatically when you take your mask off. This means you do not have to press the Front key to begin or end treatment.

Note: If you select “Mir Full” as the mask option, SmartStop is automatically disabled. SmartStart may not work with an Ultra Mirage Full Face Mask due to safety features of the mask.

When Mask Alarm is set to ON, SmartStart/Stop automatically reverts to OFF. SmartStop cannot be used with Mask Alarm because if a high leak occurs, SmartStop will stop treatment before the Mask Alarm signal is activated.

Settings for Mask Types

The following table shows the setting that should be selected for each mask type.
