ResMed S9 SD Card
My SD card died - cannot read it. I have a new card that is larger and not a Resmed SD card and the machine will not recognize it. The new card is 8G using and adapter, and I suspect the original is a 1G unit. Any ideas?

Re: ResMed S9 SD Card
Why don't you reformat the new card and then put it in your machine and see what happens.

Re: ResMed S9 SD Card
It is possible that the issue is the adapter. Sounds as if you are using a form of micro-SD card plus SD adapter.
Do you have a plain SD card you can try?

Re: ResMed S9 SD Card
In theory, the S9 needs an SD card, not an SDHC card. SD cards only go up to 2 GB size and may be a bit hard to find.
However, most people find SDHC cards work just fine. SDHC cards hold more data than SD cards, but the machine won't use the extra space
See if you can find a card to borrow, even an SDHC card.
If you can find an SD card, cheap enough, buy it. SDHC cards are easier to find and may actually be cheaper, so you might try one of those if it's enough cheaper and easier to find.
Let us know what you find that works.

Re: ResMed S9 SD Card
The SD cards that come with the S9 (at least mine) is a regular SD card, with a 2GB size. But that is not the problem; what it may be is the file format. SD cards by design use FAT (the 16-bit original variety) while newer cards use different formats: FAT32, for SDHC; exFAT, for SDXC, etc. I don't have time to experiment, but I suggest you format the card in your computer, making sure you set the file system to FAT (that's what it will show in Windows, I don't know about other OS), default allocation unit size, no label; the maximum size is irrelevant, you can leave it to maximum or limit it to 2GB, if you want it to emulate the original card. If it still doesn't work, I'd try another card. This should be good enough to get you started; try this and let us know how it went.

Re: ResMed S9 SD Card
Thanks All! I played with the card that would not read and finally gave up, and all of my other cards including all old GPS units were SDHC cards and they gave me problems. I did manage to find a couple of inexpensive SD only cards on eBay and the first arrived today. I did have to go into set up (clinic) and erase the data, but now it works fine. Thanks so much for all your thoughts and advice!
