Then, you need to change your equipment profile to the Dreamstation AUTO listing.
Get OSCAR
Accounts to put on the foe list: dataq1, clownbell, gearchange, lynninnj, mper!?, DreamDiver, Geer1, almostadoctor, sleepgeek, ajack, stom, mogy, D.H., They often post misleading, timewasting stuff.

Updated the machine to Auto. So does this model collect any data that Sleepyhead could use for reports?

Yes. The DreamStation Auto CPAP model DSX500xxx is a full data machine. All sorts of good detailed data is available.

Re: Finally slept with mask. Why am I still 13 AHI?
Yes it does! Please import your data into SH and post a chart, as outlined in the 'READ THIS FIRST" sticky post.

Bewildered. My desktop doesn’t have a slot for an SD card.

Re: Finally slept with mask. Why am I still 13 AHI?
If you are sure no slot anywhere ....I assume you have an open USB port somewhere???
If so all you need is a little SD card adapter/reader. One end goes in the USB port and the SD card goes in the other end.

WalMart has them too.

Re: Finally slept with mask. Why am I still 13 AHI?
Thanks to everyone who responded to try and help me. I verified that my PC doesn’t have an SD port. I ordered the connector from my friend Amazon but it won’t be here in time for me to load it to SH. I have reconstruction surgery this week so it may be several days before I get back to this.
Thanks again for your kindness - I really appreciate it! NanTastic

Re: Finally slept with mask. Why am I still 13 AHI?
Sending you good thoughts for a successful surgery, NanTastic ~~~
Take Care of yourself.
I look forward to seeing your CPAP progress and success here documented on CPAPTALK.
Maybe you can ask your anesthesiologist if they see anything interesting with your breathing?
I was actually diagnosed by a really great and caring anesthesiologist.
Be well, heal quickly.

Began XPAP May 2016. Autoset Pressure min. 8 / max 15. Ramp off. ERP set at 2. No humidity. Sleepyhead software installed and being looked at daily, though only beginning to understand the data.
Re: Finally slept with mask. Why am I still 13 AHI?
Thank you Grace! In addition to my mastectomies and reconstruction, I also had a pacemaker put in in July and then diagnosed with OSA. 2018 has been a tough one! Worst part - having to cancel my Australia/New Zealand Cruise and vacation. ⛴
.
Excellent suggestion about asking the anesthesiologist! As a matter of fact an anesthesiologist pointed out changes in my EKG before my last surgery and following surgery my pulse was 40 bpm. A month later the pulse was in the 30’s and I was rushed to ER for Pacemaker!
Thank you again - you are truly full of GRACE!

Re: Finally slept with mask. Why am I still 13 AHI?
Hello everyone! I'm back from my surgery and finally able to walk downstairs to get to my PC so I'm ready to try this again! I bought the adapter from BestBuy to insert my SD card into my PC since my PC did not have a slot for an SD card. I am able to see my profile and statistics now. I tried to read the how to upload reports, but got to the update where we can do screen shots and attach. I tried to hide the calendar and remove pie chart, but haven't been able to figure this out. I did a screenshot and tried to add as an attachment but it gave an error message - Invalid file extension: SleepyHead-1.0.0-beta-2-Snapshot-Win32-OpenGL-20160422.exe
I have to sign off for a bit, but I will check back later. I am very impressed with all the data that SleepyHead provides!
I am resting better and I have more energy than before I started treatment, but my AHI is still too high. From what I've read here, I think I have CSA as well as OSA. My cardiologist follow up appointment is not until Nov 17th. PS The lady at my DME is new and hasn't been a wealth of knowledge. I'm not as frustrated as I was at first, but can see why some people give up completely.

Re: Finally slept with mask. Why am I still 13 AHI?
I think I removed the calendar! Small victory, but I'll TAKE IT! And I tried a different way to screen print through the VIEW on my report. This time it saved it to a PNG. Now I really have to sign off, but any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Re: Finally slept with mask. Why am I still 13 AHI?
nantastic, you are fantastic!

next time you post, scroll down a bit further. you should see something that is labelled "attachment". click that, then follow the instructions.
then click the "preview" button, instead of the "submit" button. this will show what your post looks like before posting it here. if your preview looks good and you're satisfied with it, then hit the submit button.
good luck and i hope that helped!

Re: Finally slept with mask. Why am I still 13 AHI?
Thank you! Yes I did see the attachment and when I tried to add the screen print, that’s when I got the error message. Today was a busy day but I’ll have more time to play with it tomorrow hopefully!
