Sleepyhead Question?

Post by DoriC » Wed Sep 26, 2012 9:13 pm

On Session Settings, I have "Combine Close Sessions" and "Ignore Short Sessions" both turned "Off". I'm wondering if that has anything to do with creating multiple sessions? What are the appropriate settings?

IIRC, when those settings are off, you will see strict noon-to-noon sessions, with no adjustments for sessions that overlap noon or start a few minutes after noon.

That's OK, so that would have nothing to do with the SH bug which records multiple sessions, right?

no. but it's a good idea to ignore short sessions of 5 or 10 minutes. this way if you test your machine or mask for a few minutes it won't show up as usage in the graphs in sleepyhead.

Ha,Ha! Thanks Bill, the first few minutes that I'm adjusting Mike's mask can be a little "iffy" and I sometimes have to turn machine on/off a few times until I can make the proper adjustments. I also use the mask fit feature which takes about 3mins. I'll change the setting now to ignore for 10mins and post the results, it may help others.
