Re: Where can I download Encore Basic?

Hi Pugsy,
I'm back. Just "upgraded" from Windows Vista to Windows 8.1.
The original version of Encore is no good...
Thanks!
Bill

Is it possible to have a reduced apnea over time?

Long shot, silly question, probably naive too, but I'll try it. Is there any chance that when PAP is used long enough that your unassisted API (no cpap machine) might be reduced? Every piece of common sense tells me no; It's most likely a structural issue, at least in my case, with my tongue being t...

Re: Oops, what did I do to my machine?

Yep. I understand exactly what you are saying. Yesterday's AHI was 5.4 for the day. But it's not just AHI, it's all the data, for 1 day averages only: AHI = 0 90% pressure =0 Therapy hours =0 Periodic breathing =0 Days >4 =0 For the 7day and 30day averages, the numbers are good. Before I pulled the ...

Re: Oops, what did I do to my machine?

Here's the sequence. I pulled the card out on on Saturday Morning. I put it back in. One day reading is zero on the machine's readout. I looked at it on Sunday morning and again Sunday night, it was still zero on the machine's readout.. I looked this morning/Monday, still zero. on the machine's read...

Oops, what did I do to my machine?

Tekkie question, of sorts... I loaded up Encore Basic and then downloaded the data from the Respironics machine on Saturday. I put the card back in the machine, and for the past two days, the on-screen readings for the 1-day metrics shows zero. The 7-day and beyond counters look fine. I pulled the M...

Re: Is there any way to infer sleep quality from "home data"?

The strangest thing happened to me several nights ago. I'm not aware of anything happening during the time period. For roughly 15 min (1:45 approx. to 2:00 approx.) my SH shows that there was no data being collected. I believe that I slept through the whole thing. The 'leak graph' shows 95% = 16.80...

Re: ResScan Software Download

I am all wrong. The SIM card is associated with a wireless cell phone adapter which plugs into the machine and hides the MMC card. It took a good yank to remove cell phone unit. I pulled out the MMC card and I'm good to go. I can read it using Encore Basic. I was hoping there was more I could do wit...

Re: What kind of card is this?

Here's a question I should really know the answer to. What kind of memory card is in my Siemens? I pulled it out, it doesn't look like what I expect an MMC card to look like. I also cannot find a compatible reader slot on my PC for it. I notice it's called a "smart card" on their web site, and they...

Re: ResScan Software Download

Hi 6ptstar, I started using a Phillips REMstar Auto A-Flex machine last week. I'm kind of geeky (by training) and anxious to decode the historical data. The brick screen is nice, but I want to see the trending data. Please be so kind as to send me a reference to the appropriate software. It seems th...
