why do you feel the need to intrude your unsolicited advertorial of your offbrand machine into someone elses thread where they're asking for help?

that's considered poor form

Because I was ASKED by another member of this forum.

I did call up 3B and they were not aware of an interface between an oximeter and their RESmart auto-CPAP machine, despite the fact there is a USB port on it. I would like the benefit of monitoring my Sa02 while sleeping, to either confirm or deny the study findings and adjust accordingly. you canno...

It appears as if the USB port on the machine is only for reading out the data to software running on your desktop machine and doesn't provide two-way data communication from and external pulse-oximeter. As was suggested, a fingertip oximeter can provide useful SpO2 data during sleep. I used the CMS...

Nathan, what are the settings on your machine? Auto-titrating machines are factory defaulted at 4-12 cm, and fine tuning is left to your DME, or YOU. In this case, you are "it".

The icode connect feature and the SD card do not display oxygen levels. My events seem to clear at a much lower press...

Thought this was was on topic somewhat. I will indeed start a new thread. Thank you.

Later: New thread - viewtopic.php?f=1&t=104989

I have been looking into the issue of getting a oximeter but my machine is apparently not compatible with Sleepyhead or oximeter. In fact. my events clear at a much lower pressure of about 7cms but my sao2 on the split-night sleep study was not adequate until I reached supine titrated level of 12, a...
