Contec CMS50I Pulse Oximeter

What is this when importing from SpO2 program file storage folder?

ERROR***

"No Oximetry modue could parse the given file:"

C:/Users/.../user_1_2_20150307090454.SpO2

Assistant V2.4?Data/user.....SpO2

Should I be using different version SpO2 program with the CMS50I?

Screenshot- import could not find cpap session. Seems to be a date issue if starting after midnight. Cpap session imports for previous day and oximeter wants to import into correct date which has no cpap data. SH gives no option for calendar selection.



When importing from SpO2 program. Maybe I am using incorrect version of SpO2?

When trying to import ox/pulse data from the device, there are no CPAP sessions showing up and the calendar is blank. I tried importing from SPO2 program file and get a parsing error. Can't read file. Any ideas as to what is going on?

when you plug the 50i into sleepyhead, it should show you what sessions are on the machine.

it doesn't matter when you start recording.

SH displayed the sessions, but the last pulse/ox session did not have a timestamp. This just may have been the problem. I can view data
in SpO2. I will try again tonight. I need to go to bed before midnight and it should work okay. I did not have this issue with the CMS50d & e.

I may not be understanding correctly. You did select the "CMS-50Fv3.7+H/I"? If you select the "Use CPAP data time"(or whatever the verbiage is) does SH allow you to select any date from the calendar? When I get that message and I select the calendar and go to the previous day.

Yes SGearhart. I selected the correct oximeter type. Please see next two posts.

What is odd is the session 2 doesn't have a date/starttime. I would try creating up to 15 short sessions then look at the 50I with SH and see if each session has a date/starttime assigned to it.

I will try again tonight. I synced CMS50I clock with SpO2 time and SH time yesterday. The time of day is correct on the device. What is odd is I just now found the date on the CMS50I to read October 21, 2099. I have since corrected the date. Again, I will try again tonight. One thing though, I can not understand why I can not import from Sp02 data files without getting a parsing file error. I found an old post on Sourceforge where SH others were having this very problem with this device and the latest testing version of SH. Anyway.

I've imported the SpO2 data file without any problems. The only thing that I've noticed is the Perfusion Index data won't import into Sleepyhead using the file import as opposed to the direct import method.

Everything synced fine this morning. For some reason, the CMS50I did not apply a timestamp on the recording yesterday on import. I love the comfort of this oximeter.

Great!

I think I've found one of your problems. I tried using the Sync Time option in Sleepyhead like PaleRider had suggested. This reset the CMS50I's date and time to 01-01-2000 0:00:00. For now I would not recommend using any of the Sleepyhead's oximeter settings.

I believe you are exactly right about the date reset by SH. Seems that I remember 1-1-2000 before I started pushing the menu button yesterday. Today however, SH did not reset the date. Looks like there is a setting in SpO2 Assistant to sync the device with computer time. Thank you for your efforts SG! Happy daylight savings time. Springtime is on its way. 73 degrees for a high today here. I feel great today with an AHI of 0.93 last night. Think I will go outside to play.
