I don't have this model, but wish I did. The Clinical Manual on page 18 indicates that the time interval for the sleep report can be set for 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, or a year. See link below to the manual. That said you would be far better off to download SleepyHead and transferring your data to it. I believe it supports the VAuto.

You can certainly use SleepyHead to get all this information and more.

I believe the machine will do it on the LCD screen but you have to change the reporting time/date parameters and go a little deeper into the sleep report than what is seen on the initial wake up screen.

Are you using available software yet?
Are you one of the recent people who can't use the software for some reason....there's been a couple lately and I forget the names.

I may have to RISE but I refuse to SHINE.

If you want to try the Eclipse mask and want a special promo code to get a little off the price...send me a private message.

It depends on what you've got it set for.

Load up sleepyhead and find out what's actually going on.

What is this sick, pathological need you seem to have to talk about things you know nothing about?
