I notice the following:
90% IPAP pressure: 18.3
90% EPAP pressure: 14.8
Significant centrals.

Others may suggest some adjustments.

If I understand the reports correctly your settings for EPAP are currently 12. I would raise that to 14 and see what effect that has. I'm no expert, YMMV.

I've been following this thread, but since I use a Mac, I'm out of my depth on Windows problems. But I notice you were able to get a report for the 25th with Encore. Were you ever able to get a meaningful report with Onkor?

Onkor works for me using Chrome and Firefox (Mac.) I still don't understand all the flags, but I do get a record for the whole night and the waveform is the same as EncorePro.

I'm still thinking about builta, who got a new machine, because he couldn't get the data out of his old one. (Not sure I have all my facts straight here. ) Is it possible your machine is defective, Rosie?

I have the files but don't have an answer yet, as I haven't looked much at them, I'm sorry to say. I'm in the middle of a rewrite of much of the main onkor processing. The good news is that here should be a big update coming soon. Bad news is that there probably won't be many small updates in the meantime. Sorry! Hang tight!

Re IE9: I haven't personally tried if it works at the moment with onkor, but it sounds like it doesn't. I'll give it a shot after the big rewrite.

Hi Mike,

Thanks for all your hard work. I know that there are a lot of people that are benefiting from your work.

I look forward to using the program.

You might consider setting up a link for "donations" in hopes of offset some of your costs. Jut a thought -

Cheers
