Well I finally picked up my S9 and had my first night of sleep.
Wife said I didn't snore once, was very quiet.
Woke up 4 or 5 times. A bit dry in the mouth. (will raise the humidity level)
Would love to see whats on the memory card but the ResMed people stated only my Doctor can get the software.
All in all I'm looking forward to today and any changes, will keep at it.
Mike
My first night.

Re: My first night.
Well.....regarding the software...don't believe everything you hear at the doctor's office.
You actually have 2 choices for software.
SleepyHead will work with your machine. I have links for it in my signature line bottom left of this post.
It is Beta software so not without a few minor bugs but it does a real good job and is pretty quick too.
You can also use ResScan software and I will send you information on how to get the latest version in a private message in a couple of minutes. It is horribly slow so fair warning in that regard.
You can watch the video on how to use it here.

You can use either software or both if you wish. There are pros and cons for either.
The default setting for these machines is normally Sleep Quality "usage" in the clinical menu. When set to "usage" the only data that gets recorded is hours of use so if you use the software and don't see any graphs...you need to go into the clinical menu and change Sleep Quality to "ON".
Here is a link telling how to get to the clinical menu if you don't know how.

Here is a link that tells you how to request the provider/clinical manual for your machine.
Look down near the bottom. The clinical manual also explains how to get to the clinical menu.

This information also explains how to change the pressure but I wouldn't go messing it it right now. Just because you can doesn't always mean you should and the medical people get their panties all in a wad when you do.
