Stink. I watched cpapauction.com for EV auctions for over a month with not one post. Purchased EV from cpap.com and now, of course, there is a copy up for auction. I can't complaining because the software has already paid for itself - even at full price.

Yeah it is well worth it, I just like the pro version better. Gives my doc more to look at when I turn it in to him

More to look at? I've not seen any difference in the data recorded whether I'm using Encore Viewer or Encore Pro. Looks like exactly the same type and amount of data, displayed the same to me. I'd be interested to know what you're seeing in one that you don't see in the other. Perhaps I'm missing something....which would be easy for me to do since I usually glance only at the "Daily Details" AHI and the leak line.

Oh, just thought of something. Perhaps by "more to look at" you also use James Skinner's Encore Pro Analyzer along with your Encore Pro. EPA is the free stand-alone software James developed as another way of looking at Encore Pro data. I don't use that, so I was thinking of the comparison of just Encore Viewer with Encore Pro...which both appear to give exactly the same data.

This interests me too. I have only used the pro version.
I was under the impression that the viewer only allows viewing whatever data is currently on the card, and that it doesn't save hi-res data to the computer. So, if you want to compare hi-res data from a month ago and you haven't printed it out, you're out of luck.

I have Encore Viewer and a free PDF program. (I use PrimoPDF - there are several). I can save my nightly data to a file in "My Documents". I do that daily. Once a week I save a weekly chart the same way so that I can see what's happening in my therapy, in detail, for a week. I'm not very computer literate but found a simple graph program and make a graph of my AHI every 2 weeks. With all this, I can easily keep track and see if any therapy changes may be necessary. I can think what happened each day or night that might have affected the data. It works very well for me. For this very simple graph program search "createagraphclassic". It's a children's graph program! I take a pen, and using my daily detail charts, I put a line on my graph line, manually, to show AI and H for each night. It doesn't show that line here. I put in the line after I save it and print it out.
Here's a sample of my AHI charts.

That's awesome!
There are also some other great online resources for graphic and databasing your data if you don't own MS Excel or Hawthorne's Create a Graph Classic children's program.
Check out ZOHO or Google Docs
You can create spreadsheets and charts of your data and keep copies of your data all on line.

Thanks DreamDiver! I'm going to look at those too! I may be able to do more with interpeting my data! I don't have MS Excel and I'm not real good at math. Thanks!
