File Structure on ResScan. Sending Data File to DME.

I've downloaded, as two separate patient files, my data. Call one JohnSmith and the other JohnSmith110110.

I'd like to e-mail the data file from that second "patient" to my DME representative.

Which file or files must be sent and where are thy found ?

Depends on what you want to do. If you want to provide them with reports (such as for compliance) then ResScan can create a PDF output. I use that to send to my DME.

However, if you need to send the raw data, then ResScan has an Export function. This allows you to create a CSV file (I think that's the format). You can then send the data to the DME and they can Import the data. That's the best way to transfer the data. Anything else will probably not work (or not work well).

Hope that helps.

In Windows 7, the downloaded data files are stored in:

C:\users\public\public\documents\lastname, firstname\yyyymmdd.rlk

Where lastname and firstname are the patient's name, and yyyymmdd is the date of the sleep session.

(In other versions of Windows, search for filename *.rlk and you'll find the data file directory.

To move files to another computer one would have to create a patient with the correct name on the new system, then create the appropriate directory for the patient, and then copy the file(s) to that directory.

I don't know if this would work for computers running different versions of ResScan.

Exporting and importing, as John suggested, would probably be the better option.
