Yay!

Received the Resmed 3.5 software and card reader. Got that installed last evening and had a quick review of some of my data... now I need to figure out what all this means.

Also received the surge protector for the machine:

This is a serious protector housed in a metal case. Great... now I can throw the metal case against the wall when my machine fries due to a surge.

Hi Paul, I am a newbie and wanted to ask if the Resmed software is easy to read and use. I am brand new to this treatment and I am wanting to learn about it and how to adjust my machine (Resmed Auto 25) to my needs, but I would like to know about its user friendlyness before spending that kind of money.

The beauty of being able to see your own data is fantastic !
You can see right away what went wrong during the night, and not having to wait on anyone ( weeks later) to interpret why you woke up feeling " crappy" way back then!
I greatly appreciate the independance this gives us.
Let us know how it goes.

Congrats Paul! It will be so much easier for you to take charge of your treatment now! If anything in the data confuses you or you have any questions about it, just post and someone will be able to walk you through it.
