I had to dig up my CMS-50D+ as it appears I've picked up the virus. I went for my test Friday so it will be a while. In the mean time, I'm trying to keep myself out of the hospital as best I can. I wanted to upload the information from my Oximeter. When I start it, it says I'm using version 4.4. I originally tried to hook it up with a camera USB cable which it wouldn't recognize. Then found this thread and looked for a grey cable and found what I was looking for. It recognizes my Oximeter, but tells me to go to the menu and select "Upload." No such option exists. It has an Alarm sub-directory, a Record sub-directory and Exit.

Is there any way to update the software in my Oximeter to make it give me an upload option or do I need to use something other than Oscar to get the data off it? Thanks for any help you can offer.

I downloaded the Silicone Labs drivers.
I'm using a Contec CMS 50D+ too. When it first starts, it tells me the firmware version is 4.6.

Other than OSCAR, the only software I've found that still works with my device is SpO2 1.5. I've tried all the later versions, but they don't seem to work. It's possible later versions of Sp02 may be compatible with later firmware versions of this device.

The PulseOx Store has some different versions with directions here. None of these worked for mine. I've put version 1.5 here under "Software", if you're unable to find other versions that work.

If anyone is aware of a later version that is supposed to be compatible with the CMS-50D+, I'd be grateful to know too. I hope this helps.

Chris
