I think you need ResMed ResScan (version 3.7 is the latest). Check ebay, or some Australian provider is selling it (from what I've read).

Congratulations on getting the cpap that you wanted!

Others here have bought the ResScan 3.7 software on ebay for a few dollars.

You also need a card reader--it has a USB port to plug into your computer, to transfer the data. Others have modified a generic card reader, but since you're "computer ignorant", the easiest one to use is the Resmed one:

Using the card reader may be routine to the computer savy, but I'll tell you this, because it was new to me, and I had to figure it out. You take the card with the blue and white side UP, and the arrow pointing towards your cpap and slide it in. The LED screen will say Card Inserted, Please Wait. You wait a few seconds. Then it will say Copy Complete, Remove Card. Then you take the card, and put it in the card reader (which is plugged into your computer), but turn it over so the gold part is pointing towards the card reader, and insert.
