circuit board

[granti55]

Hi does anyone have Remstar Auto M C flex I could buy for parts, mine shows all zeroes for leaks or ahi, therapy hours but shows total blower hours, and also won't put anything on the card. I think I must need a new board? Anybody got some ideas. thanks Grant

Only place I can think of that might have access to spare parts is this forum member.
They have a business repairing cpap machines.

Can you find someone to do a software upgrade on the device?

I don't think you will have much luck in your quest. My understanding is that the circuit boards do not have the firmware installed and the sensors are not calibrated. The firmware is not hard to install if you have the Sleeplink cable and card as well as the firmware program. To calibrate the pressure and the sensors is another thing. According to the service manual it takes a special flow meter, adjustable valve, a computer with diagnostic program and another CPAP to provide negative flow.

Thanks Jerry and to all! I have found out the same thing. I will be better to get a used one. I have 2 S8 Elites one belongs to Gov. ov Sask. medicare gives us one and the S9 and Auto M which are also mine. I will have to grow a few more heads to use them all, but I am a truck driver and would like another autoset type machine to take with me on the road, and I have the card reader and software for the M series and have seen some for about $350 up here used in the Toronto area. So that looks like the path I will have to take. Thanks again to you all for your input.
