S9 ResMed changes not saved

Post by VikingGnome » Wed Apr 04, 2012 3:16 pm

Did you realize that when you change your pressure setting on S9 ResMed machines and EPR they are not permanent? The first time you take the SD card out to import data to software, all your default settings from DMS are restored when you reinsert your sd card into your machine. So those of you that tweak your settings all the time, are you reprogramming your changes after you take the SD card out and put it back in machine?

My sleep doc just upped my pressure from 15 to 16. My DMS had to make the changes on my SD card with a special program. I changed EPR down to 1 about 10 days ago but it was back to 2 the next time I checked my data.

If you wipe the card, those settings will be gone and the machine will rewrite the summary data back to the card when you reinsert it..
The DME's special program is ResScan which is available here. Look for Uncle bob's signature for the link.

Easy fix, lock the sd card when you pull data. The machines gonna erase old data so why wipe and reload?

Yes, I'm married to man with a bad case of narcolepsy. And yup, I have 3 kids under age 4... Adding OSA just seemed like the right thing to do! :-)

Her problem is the machine reading the settings from the card. The machine overwrites old data.
