Best Full Face Mask?

I'm new to cpap or at least really trying to make it work. I have ResMed S9 which is a big improvement over my M Auto Flex. I have been using the S9 with a Quattro for about a week. I have had some great nights, even Ahi 0 once. But, also some like last night when I woke at 4:00 with my mask off. Th...

Re: Resmed S9 Stops Flow

Thank you both. I really appreciate it. I talked to cpap.com, and got the same advice as you both gave. But when I went to the clinical menu it turned out I'd already selected Full Face. So the best guess that the cpap.com person and I could come up with is I'm getting a massive leak which doesn't w...

Resmed S9 Stops Flow

For the second night out of 6, I woke up with my mask on, but no flow from my S9. I think the display was on Home where you can select info or settings. Looking at the graph on Rescan I can see there was no recording of anything for about 2 hours. Presumably, the flow stopped, and I continued sleepi...

Getting Rescan 3.10 to Run on a Mac?

After my second night on my S9, I'm greatly encouraged. I want to run the software on my Mac. 1. I plan to buy Parallels. Is that a good idea or should I just stick with Bootcamp. 2. Which Microsoft Operating System should I get? Vista, etc.? I know nothing about PC's. I would use this for Rescan fo...

Re: First Night with S9, Promising but Problems

Nord, Thanks for your reply. I'm sure the "thumping" wasn't in me, but in the mask, a Quarttro. Felt that my breathing out was closing the valve which was increasing resistance to breath out substantially. When the thumping stopped even on the next exhale there was a huge difference. It was an all o...

First Night with S9, Promising but Problems

I had some problems with using my new S9. 1. When I first put the mask on, I'd get a strong thump everytime I exhaled. Pressure was more exhaling than inhaling. I think the valve at the elbow was closing. In time and with slower careful exhale the problem seemed to go away. Perhaps the machine adjus...

Re: A New Member's Questions

Thank you Fiberfan.

I'm a photographer so I have an SD card reader, but how can I get the software?

Does the old not for sale ReScan 3.7 work with the S9?

If so, how can I get it.

Best,

Mitchell

Re: A New Member's Questions

Thanks so much for your replies. I just started to order an S9 from cpap.com and found out neither ResMed Rescan nor the card readers are for sale anymore. So how can I get the data off an S9 if I buy one? With all the frustration of dealing with Apnea, the unnecessary ***+#@)&*** of having to deal ...

Re: sleep Dr. says I am not capable of doing my own data?

Hi Den,

Will that work on a REMstar Auto A-Flex?

I tried it but I couldn't find an "on/off" button to end with.

I would love to be able to do this.

Thanks,

Mitchell
