I have been using my cpap for about a month and a half, and when I look at the various areas under "Info" the status section reports "Unlocked, free space 100%". Is my machine recording my data to give to my sleep doc? Logic would have it that as time goes by that the card would have less space wouldn't it? It was mentioned in the chat room that I could/should get the software for checking it. Where do I get the software and reader? Is it expensive?

Re: Question about "status" info on machine
The machine will not show any used space until about 3-4 months. After using my PR1 system for 10 months it shows 96% available.
The SD card will record up to 10 years of data - I had the same concerns until I checked this out with my provider.

Thanks, Diboja. I was afraid it might not be recording anything and I won't have any data to bring with me to my Appointment in April.

You can get Encore Viewer from CPAP.com for 99$ (easy to use) you won't need a separate card reader if your computer has a standard SD card slot. Or ask around and get a copy of Encore Pro, it has waveform, but is a little fussier to use.. kathy
Any landing you walk away from is a good one; if you don't break your airplane it's excellent.
