Can you do another screen shot please?
This time the entire detailed report so it looks like this one below?
Don't zoom in on anything.
Did you wake during the night? Turn machine off for a little while?

Did you wake up at 3:26 AM by chance? Turn off the machine? Have a power outage?
I assume the machine was still blowing as usual when you turned it off at 8 AM?

Try this..
put the SD card back into the PR S1 and let it write to the SD card...and then remove it and import/download the data again and see if the time that you ended the night changes. It only takes a minute or so to finish writing anything it has stored to the SD card.

Also...on the left side of the report there is a little slider bar just to the right of the pie chart. Click and drag it down to the very bottom until you see sessions with a little green/black box. How many sessions is it showing?

Yes I got up one time and rite back in bed and did turn it off for that, I'd forgot that I did that.

It shows 2 sessions

Looks like the report is now showing the correct time slept as I see it ending at around 8 AM.

What did you do? Reinsert the SD card in the machine and try again?

The session thing...they should be green...when they are red that session is turned off but it would have be something I doubt you would have done because you probably didn't even know about it.
Anytime the machine is turned off and then back on again it will start a new session. SleepyHead normally combines the sessions unless the session is extremely brief.
I was just asking in case it only showed one session.

The machine stores almost all the data from the night on its internal memory for a period of time so inserting the SD card back in the machine will allow the machine to write any missing data to the SD card. For some reason the machine didn't do it at 8 AM when it should have...did you maybe pull the SD card out really quick when you woke up?

Anyway...it's fixed for now.

How are you doing otherwise with the mask and machine?

Yes I pulled the card out within 1 minute of shutting it off.
I was wanting to see the data because it was the first full night I had slept with CPAP.
Is stopping breathing for 20-30 seconds unusual?

That explains it..you just pulled the SD card out a little too soon. It didn't have enough time to finalize things.
When you turn it off you can watch it do its thing to make sure it gets done or just wait 3 or 4 minutes...doesn't really take that long but gives you a little cushion so this doesn't happen again.

Stopping breathing for 20 to 30 seconds..not unusual..that's why they call it sleep apnea. I have seen some 45 to 60 second duration events but most are around 10 to 20 seconds.
You might want to increase that minimum pressure 0.5 cm if your reports still show some snores and Flow limitations like this one last night did.

Didn't you have some weird brand pulse oximeter?

I had good luck with the CMS 50-D Plus myself.

Not these that I know of.
Are you talking about a DME type of store?
