OSCAR not importing all of the data from my SD card

Post by Brain Fog » Sat Mar 13, 2021 1:02 pm

I have used both OSCAR and Sleepyhead for many years. I just got a new ResMed AirCurve 10 VAuto with a new SD card on 2-12-21. The first 10 nights, I was able to import most all of the data from my SD card into OSCAR (I understand not everything listed under the OSCAR events and waveform tab can be imported by every CPAP of BiPAP machine because it depends upon the machine make and model.

After the 10th night, I noticed only about half of the data from my SD card was imported and showing up in the OSCAR overview report. In the daily report it would say “Please Note This day just contains summary data, only limited information is available.” What could have caused this to happen? Is there a setting I need to change so I can receive all of the data my new machine is capable of reporting?

I also did a test. I made a new profile under a different profile name and imported all of the data on my SD card again. This did not help. I also tried to use the rebuild data feature in OSCAR. This also did not help.

I also imported the data from my SD card into Sleepyhead and still got the same results; however, in Sleepyhead I was only able to see the data from 2-12 and 2-13. Then the remaining data would be missing for several nights or spotty at best.

Does anyone have any ideas, suggestions, or solutions about how I can fix this problem?. This is very frustrating. I need this data to help me set up and monitor my new machine. I also did try using the ResMed airview which in my opinion is almost worthless (unless you like receiving spam messages from ResMed after you sign up) Does the Apnea Board offer tech support? I would be willing to pay someone a reasonable fee to help me with this problem.

Any help would be greatly appreciated,

Thanks in advance!

If your SD card is not in the machine overnight to record all the data, the machine will report only summary data. The SD card should be in the machine all the time except when you take it out to download. If this is not the reason, there may be a problem with the machine's card slot where it is not recording.

Also....which version of OSCAR are you using?

There was a bug with the first version that caused some problem importing fully...if you aren't using 1.2...get it and use it and see if that helps or not.
Latest version here

Making sure to keep the SD card in the machine every night solved the problem!!!
