Encore Pro Analyzer 0.8.9 won't accept Encore Pro 1.8.65

Post by dllfo » Mon Oct 08, 2007 11:10 pm

The title is a little misleading, not enough room to say it all. I have Encore Pro 1.8.65 and I am using it with my Respironics BiPap Auto SV. When I download the data and try to view it on Encore Pro Analyzer, it will not look at it. It will look at my old Respironics BiPap Auto data.

It can view data up to the first night I used the SV. I know the SV has several categories the other units don't have, but none will come through.

Max IPAP setting
Min IPAP setting
EPAP setting
PB %of the night
AP
H
AHI
Avg peak Flow
Avg Tidal Volume
Avg Breathes per minute
Current Back Up Rate
Avg patient triggered breathes
Large Leak
Avg Leak

As I look at it, I guess there are only 6 or 7 readings common to both machines, maybe they are presented in a different "format" or language?

James, I tried to look at AHI, a common area, but it won't come thru. Any ideas? I am not complaining at all, I was just hoping more data might come through. Your 0.8.9 is a good program, works great with my wife's BiPap Auto. Thanks in advance for any ideas....

Are there errors or you just get empty graphs?

I'll have to add those other categories to my growing to do list.

Resperonics has this annoying habit of creating new tables for new machines rather than just using the existing ones. I have had to contend with this for various generations of machines inside EPA. Usually the tables are very similar (just different enough to make it annoying as a programmer)

I'm currently using 1.8.49. I'll need to get a Encore Pro Patient file from you so that I can try to fix the problem. Does the SV need the 1.8.65 version specifically?

Thanks James, the SV apparently needs the 1.8.65. I had a 1.6+ program and they wouldn't talk at all.

I don't get empty info...I just get the last day I used the old machine. Sep 2...
I started using the SV Sep 3 (I think) and Sep 3 fwd is in Encore Pro but not
Encore Pro Analyzer.

Sorry about Respironics annoying habits. I won't ask you to spend a lot of time for a few of us. Maybe if we get more people on the SV...wow...what a machine.

I can email you several files. PDF format.

Thanks....Dave

I don't mind taking a look at it as it may not be a lot of work depending on whats wrong. I'll need your patient export file, created with Encore Pros export patient feature.

I've had a chance to dig into the problem some and unfortunately the fix will not be simple. There appear to be two new tables for the SV, once named CDB12EventLog and one CDB12ProfileLog.

In the past adding new machines has been fairly strait foreward (except for BiPaps) but it looks like the SV is significantly different as to not be a trival update. Unfortunately I'll just have to add it to my to do list for now.
