Just got a new cpap and have a couple of questions...

[Billmanweh]

I've been using a cpap machine for the last 6 1/2 years or so. Mostly with the help and advice from the members here, as I was without health insurance and sort of self-treating.

Well, I now have insurance and my new doc just gave me a new machine, a Resmed Air Sense 10 Elite.

I guess I have two questions. Is it possible for me to look at the data on the SD card myself? And can I change the pressure on my machine?

On my previous machine (a Respironics M Series) my pressure was at a 12 or so, and my new machine is set at a 7. I'd really like to experiment with bumping the pressure a little.

Any thoughts?

Sleephead software - see first thread "pugsy's tutorials..."

Lots of detail and you will be totally able to see EVERYTHING.

Of course you can change the pressure yourself, do you know how? And do DL SleepyHead from the first note on main pg (the Tutorial).

The answers to both questions is YES

You can get a copy of your clinical manual at this link. http://www.apneaboard.com/adjust-cpap-p ... tup-manual Scroll down to the bottom at Section Three and they will tell you how to get one by email.
You can download Sleepyhead here. http://sleepfiles.com/SH/index.html?TestingVersions

For you information; The Sleepyhead link that OkyDoky provided is the first version that supports the AS10.

Happy snorkeling!

you don't install it, you just unzip it and run the program from it's folder.
