I use my Aircurve S 10 Vauto in fixed bilevel mode.

Works great, and gives all the data for Sleepyhead.

Good deal!

Sounds like the guy may have wanted his Mom's machine to benefit someone who needs it.
Or he wanted/needed the cash. :D :D :D

I wish you good luck.

The "S" and "VAuto" models are not the same machine.

If you're trying to say "s10" there's no such thing.

It's "Aircurve 10 VAuto" or "Aircurve 10 S" two different models. wiki/index.php/CPAP_models

So I'm on Motherboard reading reading about Sleepyhead how it got started and the legalese involved, halfway through. Looks like a bit of a long but interesting read.

Is this something I should be getting involved with or use the app that I can get from the manufacturer?

I would recommend you use sleepyhead to monitor your therapy. Most of the people here on the forum use it. I have found it easier to use than the manufacturer software.

The app is a joke, doesn't provide much more than the display on the machine does.

My pulmonologist/sleep medicine doctor uses it (sleepyhead)

Okay, mea culpa. I use my Vauto in S mode.
