See if this helps. You are making more work for yourself.
viewtopic/t158560/How-to-post-images-for-review.html
As for understanding all the data you see....most of it really isn't all that important because there's a very wide range of "normals" and you fall right in the middle of "normal".
See the thread in the announcements section for SleepyHead/OSCAR help. It explains the basics.

Not sure how my attachments are not the recommended format. According what I read on the link provided, the format is png image file and that is what my images are. I took screenshots directly from the Take Screenshot option on Oscar, I saved the image to my desktop and just changed the file name to the date of the data. I then used the attachment option in the forum page to attach the pictures to my post. The only thing I did notice was that when they attached to the post, they attached as one large image versus the three individual images I attached while creating g the post.
Apparently you paid no attention whatsoever to the instructions about how to organize the charts so that we get what we need, and you don't waste your time doing screenshots of things we don't care about.
Too bad.

It’s not that the attachments are the incorrect format, the OSCAR data graphs are the issue. The instructions are exactly as palerider said:
flags
flow rate
pressure (not mask pressure)
leaks
snores
flow limitation
Turn off the calendar and pie chart, and make sure all of the above graphs can be seen in the screen. Once you have it set up right the software will keep the format for future use so if you have to post info again it will be what the experienced need to offer help.
The folks here answer a lot of requests for help and it is our responsibility to help get to the data needed to make their assistance easier.

how about instead of being bitchy, you go back and READ any of the posted instructions and see if you can't clue into the *POINT* of them.

Clearly you are an individual who lacks the ability and maturity to engage in a cordial manner with others.

It's funny how people that are clueless always jump to that conclusion when someone points out their failure to follow simple directions.
Fortunately for you, I no longer have any desire to try and help you.
Best of luck to you in your quest to find help or answers, have a nice day.

Funny how you lack understanding of my original comment. I never had an issue with the information, rather the tone of sarcasm…then an attempt at an insult by your vulgarity. Lucky for you, now knowing that you are person who cant control their emotions, I will not care if you offer or don’t offer any assistance. There are others here who actually can tell me when I am doing something wrong in a manner that is appropriate for a forum and simply as a decent human being! Best of luck to you as well!

did you know that the forum has a "foe" feature? (wish it was called something else.)
simply left click on a users name any time you see it displayed in blue. you'll be taken to a page where you can choose to "foe" them. after completing the process, you will literally never see another post from that user unless you CHOOSE to see it.
i'm not aiming this specifically at you or palerider; i'm just putting it out there for your consideration and for that of other forum users.

Hmm I think its kind of weird that there would be a difference with different masks. I would think that they would be the same. I never noticed anything when I went from the Mirage FX Nasal to the Airfit P10 Pillow mask. Im going to be going on to my 3rd mask in November 2021.

it was weird…the first night with the new mask it was difficult…the second night and beyond it was fine…and I didn’t change any settings on my machine.
