New S8 macine software question

Post by Davidwnc » Tue Nov 10, 2009 6:46 pm

I have been on CPAP for about 15 years now. I've never before had a machine with reporting before, but I've just purchased an S8 AutoSet II and I would like to know what software would work with it and where I could buy it. I wont actually get the machine until I go home for Christmas - I had it delivered to my parents to spare the hassle and expense of having it shipped overseas. I would like to be able to use the software as soon as I start using the machine.

Thanks in advance for any and all help you can give.

Resmed has stopped selling its software, ResScan 3.7, in the U.S. Most people on this forum who have reported buying it recently have bought it from an Australian web site, http://www.cpapaustralia.com.au. It worked fine for me, and no one else had any trouble, as far as I know. CPAP Australia does not sell this via download, however. You have to pay $20 for shipping and wait for a box with a CD in it. You will also need a reader for the small data card used to transfer information to the computer.

FWIW, I just purchased the software and a card reader from a US site, and received it in two business days. But it was not cheap.
