sleepy head can't find card

Post by Diamondminek » Thu Feb 18, 2016 1:12 pm

So after going back to the sleep clinic with increased fatigue, I was sent home with an s9 auto set, to see what my pressures look like in the next 4 weeks, to see if my pressure needs to be set higher on my usual [brick] cpap, or I need a different machine altogether.

As far as I can see this machine should be data capable? I assume it's the same card from my original machine, which worked fine. Now, the computer doesn't even recognise a storage device so sleepy head can't find it.

Any ideas.... do you think the card or card reader could be btoken? Don't think I gave another sd card just now to test. Or is it possible the card us only set to work on the hospital system? Don't want to get back and find these 4 weeks have been wasted.

Try a different card reader, or different computer to verify, but it should work fine.

Definitely try a different card reader first.

Every so often I have to very gently use a rubber eraser on the gold tabs on the card to get the computer to see it.

If you have a digital camera (especially an older one) you might have an SD card in it that you can use to test your PC's card reader.

I like my ResMed AirFit F10 FFM - reasonably low leaks for my ASV therapy. I'm currently using a PR S1 AutoSV 960P Advanced. I also keep a ResMed S9 Adapt as backup. I use a heated Hibernite hose. Still rockin' with Win 7 by using GWX to stop Win 10.
