Can we get a bit more info:
Can this machine take a memory card?
Will it submit its data to be analyzed by SLeepyHead et al?
Does it have a humidifier?

Thank you!

Judging by the photo, it looks like it might be the (discontinued) REMstar BiPAP ST Gray Model with Smart Card:

It says compatible with Encore Pro (if this is that model) but no idea about Sleepyhead.

It will NOT work with SleepyHead. SleepyHead only works with SD card and not with smart cards.
I would have to check on using Encore Pro as they are phasing out support for those older machines with Pro. Not sure if Encore Basic will work either. This is one model older than the normal Legacy series models and looks a lot like it externally except the color. I have no idea how it measures up internally.
The DT3500 Infineer smart card reader would also be needed. Nothing else would work. Still available though.
Plus I don't see any place to insert a smart card unless that end plate is covering it.

Despite the low hours (even if those are blower hours and not therapy hours) this model is a real dinosaur.
Need manufacture data off the sticker if it has one. I suspect probably around 10 years old.

I'd put money on the probability that those "hours" he's quoting are actually "User" hours (which can be reset) and not the actual "Blower" hours......which can't be reset. The screen for the "Blower hours" should actually show "Blower hours" and not just "Hours" or "Hrs." as in his picture. And, when booting the machine, the blower hours only flash for a second or two (just after the firmware number)......probably not long enough to get a decent picture of them.

The price is ridiculous for that old of a machine. And, I'd venture to guess the actual hours on that machine are in the many thousands.

The old adage of "A fool and his money are soon parted." comes to mind

And, Bill........that's the wrong machine link for this machine. This one is probably in the 9 - 11 year old category.

There is no humidifier. I'm sorry I know nothing about sleepyhead. I will post the model number shortly. If anyone knows how to check the actual hours please let me know. I do not know this machine well.

There should also be an "External AC Power Supply" module. The old Legacy Bi-Pap machines run on 24V.

When plugged into the power source, there should be several things that appear in the LCD......the Firmware version, the Blower hours and then the User hours.

Well.......some did and some didn't. Apparently you had power to it when you took the pictures, so whatever cord works with that one is the appropriate cord.
