lost SD card

[springman946]

i lost my SD card for my machine the other day and I am unable to find it can I go to somewhere like staples and get a new one or do I have to get on from my home care provider I called my home care provider and they told me that I have to get one from them and that I cannot go to the store to get one is this true an SD card is an SD card.

Any SD card will work, make sure it is just a SD card and not a HDSD card generally the card that are under 4 Giabytes are just SD card.
Just plug it into you machine and it should format it .

It probably won't really use up even a 2 GB card, so don't spend extra for a bigger card.

If you mean "SDHC," those have worked fine when I tried them as well. "SD" was the original, "SDHC" is the improved model, and "SDXC" is the "improved improved" version.

I haven't tried SDXC cards in the CPAP machine yet.

Depending on your particular machine, any SD card will work, most SDHC cards will work but some won't, and I've never tried an SDXC card.

I have collected three years of data for a Respironics 750 P Auto BiPap machine on a 2 GB SD card that comes with the machine and it is not nearly full so smaller (and cheaper) is better.

Got a regular 2GB SD card at a nearby CVS just the other day. So they're out there, if you just need a regular SD card.

Just a thought. Are you sure you lost it? Did you check your card reader? You might have left it there.
I once spent several minutes looking for a pair of glasses that I was wearing

Posting here because this is a similar topic:


Anyone know where I can buy a replacement F&P Icon usb Smartstick?
I lost mine going from the machine to the computer somehow. Looked everywhere and its gone.

[ninjatrigg]

cpap.com stick says its for the Sleepstyle machines. Not sure if it will fit my Icon.

[ChicagoGranny]

To make sure, call them and ask.

Got ahold of them. They dont sell that stick.
Had to order it through my DME, which I didnt really want to. $25

Rant: I wish I had done a little more research when I got my cpap machine. I had no idea what I was getting into.
I wasnt thinking clearly at the time either due to my sleep apnea taking over my life.
I would not recommend the F&P Icon.

The footprint is pretty small, but I dont really care about this.
The USB is proprietary.
Accessing the data is a pain in the ***. Sleepyhead needs a modded version to grab certain data.
I managed to get it to work, but I would rather have something easier to get into.
Not being able to separate the humidifier and heated air is annoying. Even If I turn the humidity all the way off, the water still heats up and makes the air too warm.

I wish I got an S9.....

You aren't the first and sadly won't be the last. I know a DME that quit stocking the F & P machines because everything was a PITA about them...but hey...they have a cool clock

Yeah, that clock is amazing haha...

Yeah my DME had to do some research to figure out something for me.

I asked if there was a way to turn down the heat on it.
Took them two days to get back to me and this is what they came up with:

Turn the dial to go to the humidity setting.
Press and hold the button for a few seconds to access a hidden humidity setting.
Then you can lower the heat to the lowest setting. (which it still too hot btw)
Secret settings.... woohoo.

I was going to suggest that it would make a good backup machine but with the air still being too warm for you...I can't even suggest that.

If your pocketbook ever permits you to purchase out of pocket...we have sources for either lightly used or new machines that won't break the bank too bad.

If someone ever asks which machine to get and the Icon is included in the choices I will point them to your post.
I know another person who absolutely hated hers but was able to get her DME to get her what she wanted because her doctor had been specific about what he ordered and the DME didn't pay any attention to the order and substituted the Icon instead...and it was for a specific brand and model because that was the software and brand he preferred. It wasn't found out until several months later when she went back for follow up...DME got a butt chewing too.

Go ahead and point anyone to my post.
I havent read many good things about my machine anyway.

Ive been looking at the S9 on cpap.com.

Its on sale right now with this custom cart for $872

Is that worth it to just impulse buy it?
Seriously debating it.
