DreamStation Help Needed

Post by ala5081 » Sat Apr 30, 2016 6:59 pm

I have a couple of questions if someone could help me. Could you tell me the purpose of the DreamStation Modem and is it a necessary part of therapy. I don't know where to buy it or not. Second I miss my data. On my S9 I has Sleepyhead. Does anyone know if there is special software to handle data from The Dreamstation. Thank you to anyone for any help that you can give me.

the modem allows your dme to report your usage to your insurance company without your having to wag the machine in, or send in your SD card.

beta sleepyhead works with the dreamstation.

Agree w/palerider.
I have the DreamStation and the DME had the modem installed when I took possession of it.
The Sleepyhead program works fantastically with the DreamStation.
I'm using beta 1.0.0-beta-2 (https://sleepyhead.jedimark.net/)
