These PAP machines work on a 24 hour, noon to noon clock. Are you cheking your data BEFORE noon?

The data is still carried in memory for 4-5 days (whilst the rest of the world is on a 7 day clock but it is transferred into the averages if not downloaded before noon.

....of course this all depends on whether your machine is set to the correct local time!

My S8 was 2 hrs 18 mins off when my DME gave it to me. I am still wondering how. I can see how a 2 hr mistake could happen, but where did the 18 mins come from?

XPAP machines aren't supposed to be used to keep time, that's not their most important function. Wal-Mart sells some that are designed for that job, usually for under $10. Jim

Time is relative, my relative gave me a clock for my wall.
