I just checked this original link and it still/again works to download the DreamStation Provider's manual:

Get it while it's still available.

Thanks. I've downloaded sleephead but don't know how I get the data into my computer. Do I need a reader for the card? Can it transfer the data wirelessly?

yes, you need a SD card reader, there are wifi sd cards available, you'd have to purchase one, there's links on the site I gave you about the toshiba flashair card.

I recommend you get the manual for your machine from apneaboard.com, there's a link at the top of the page on how to request a manual, it's helpful to have the manual, so that you have some reference as to what the functions and options are, instead of just being told "here's how you unlock the gates".

I have THE manual. The one I linked to (with the Philips/Respironics link) on the forum awhile back......which they promptly changed the following day or two.
It IS the full-blown provider's manual.......in COLOR, too.

er, was I talking to you? no, appears I was talking to westport, suggesting that THEY get the manual, so that THEY can learn and not just settle for the secret button pushes. now, just pull your bunched up panties outta your crack and settle down.

Well, in case you didn't read my previous post, the DreamStation Provider manual can be had by clicking on that link to download it from THE SOURCE.

Thanks everyone. I'll read the manuel in one form or other.

I went to Best Buy and got a reader. The guy there asked if there was one on the side of my laptop....of course there was....I'm certainly not the tech guru. So later I'll be heading back to Best Buy to return this thing if anyone needs anything!

So the the card is in my computer and I've got Sleephead open.....now what do I do?

[westport]

Ok...I've tried to load the data but it says it couldn't find any valid machine data. What did I do wrong?

I can't help you with Sleepyhead. All of my machines are too old to use it. (which is fine with me)
See if these links may help.

Figured it out! and now have the data. Now what do I do with it?? How do I read this stuff?

Read the links you were given, then download to Imgur.com and when you've got everything going properly, put a link to it/them in this thread.

yes, dear, I read your post... *pats you reassuringly* you've done well, everybody knows it, you should be proud of yourself.

[westport]

Here's my first go at this...any thoughts would be appreciated.

removing the bottom two unasked for graphs would give the others more room.

maybe it's an artifact of the excessive squishing, but the flags chart shouldn't have colored lines across it.

Maybe this is better:

It's all completely greek to me....so if there is anything that's of interest...I'd love to hear about it. Does it make sense for me to adjust my settings? Thanks!

Yes. I think you need a higher minimum pressure.
