Sleepyhead w/ DreamStation APAP or CPAP Pro

Post by echo » Tue May 15, 2018 12:49 pm

Hi all, I have a few questions about the Dreamstation machines - I searched online but still confused :-/ Possibly because lately I keep falling asleep without putting my mask on at night so I'm pretty tired :cry: (trying to sort that one out!).

1. Does Sleepyhead work with Dreamstation machines - specifically the CPAP Pro? The FAQ only mentions the PR System one and the only posts I found here were back from 2016.

2. If yes, I assume synching works via an SD Card?

Thanks!

If you have a choice, get the APAP. You can always use that as a "plain old" CPAP, but you can't upgrade the "pro."

I think the "plain old" CPAP without "pro" in the name reports only compliance data.

I just received my CPAP (PR DreamStation) and have used it for 4 nights. Unfortunately, the DreamMapper app leaves a lot to be desired. Can anyone tell me if SleepyHead works with the standard DreamStation CPAP? I'm at work and cannot verify if I have a Pro machine or Auto, but I'm pretty sure its just the standard machine. Thanks!

Yes, SleepyHead will work with the DreamStation machines except for the ASV models.

How much data you can see using SleepyHead is going to depend on exactly which model. SleepyHead can't show something if the machine doesn't gather it.
