DT3500 Infineer card reader

Post by postitnote » Thu Mar 05, 2015 6:53 pm

Was wondering if anyone had one of these they no longer use they would be willing to sell. I can purchase a new Encore card for about $10 but the readers are really expensive. I've never had the opportunity to actually see what goes on with me when I sleep and I really want to learn.

Thanks!

I know that the Remstar card is the size of a credit card. There are several readers for cards this size so I am wondering if any of those will work. Is there something proprietary to the DT3500?

The Infineer DT3500 is the only card reader that will work with the Respironics Smart Cards.
I know there are a lot of other card readers out there where the Smart Card with physically fit into the card reader but they won't work with the Smart Cards and Encore. There's no way to modify those other readers to make them work.

I found one here for $43.00

Sometimes I have seen them on EBay but not today

Thanks! I will buy that one. I just found a used one on dot.med for $35 but no guarantee and honestly I have never heard of that place. Can you ask someone you see today to hug you for me please

Even with shipping from Hong Kong by airmail it was $23.00 less than what I had seen for new ones. This one is new so that was a great deal. Should be here in 4 to 12 days. Glad it's not coming by boat!
