DeVilbiss Users - New Software Update

Post by jimnsc » Wed Nov 16, 2011 9:25 am

Opened up SmartLink this morning and had an update from 2.3.0 to 2.4.1 and man, you won't believe how it speeds up opening the program. Changed the look of several reports (for the better, I think) and I really haven't had time to look through it for a thorough evaluation. Now to work on them (Are you listening Devilbiss Rep?) to make SmartLink compatible with the MAC! I waited to read this morning's data before I updated though and had absolutely the best results overall since I started this "hobby" 8 months ago.

Hey.... thanks, Jim, for the update. I am motivated now to go look at some data which I haven't done in a few weeks. My results are just so darn boring to view anymore

I doubt they will write a piece of software for Mac, ever..... more likely, they will move to a web based system where you will have a secure account and simply upload your data to view it online.

Hello,

I have a question? If I purchase a software package and it is listed at 2.0, will it upgrade via internet to the lates version?

I am looking to purchase my first machine and software post hast.

Thanks,

Fred

Yes. When I bought my Intellipap and Smarlink software earlier this year it had 2.0 and immediately upon activating it, it offered the 2.3.0 upgrade. You'll always get the latest with SmartLink.

The new version lays out the data in a more user friendly format and the AHI graph makes a great deal more sense now. All in all a good update and doesn't take long to download and install. Worth it for anyone who hasn't used it in a while.

Mark (jedimark) just added Intellipap support to SleepyHead and, yes, there is a mac build. (A mac build with the Intellipap code will be up later today.) SH is still in development and has plenty of bugs, but it would be immensely helpful if a few more Intellipap users would provide raw data and the corresponding graphs to Mark so that he can fix the bugs and get everything working well. PM jedimark if you would like to help.

P.S. Actually, Mark wants to make more changes before the next drop. Intellipap support will be in the next drop.

Must you be really computer literate to use SH for Mac? If so I won't attempt it but will be glad to participate if you don't have to be able to write software.

I provided Mark with the zipfile of my SD card last night.... as well as pdf reports. I look forward to trying the Mac build of SH to see how I like it compared to the SmartLink I have on my little PC netbook.

Please keep us posted, Emilia! I would trust your opinion as to whether I should wait on the book "Sleepy Head for Dummies" to be published.
