Depends on which model. The S8 Escape only provides hours of use. So nothing particularly useful.

The S8 Elite, AutoSet and VPAPs do collect additional data and is available on the LCD screen. To use the software a special hard to find and expensive card reader is needed to go along with the ResMed Smart Card.
But there is decent data on the LCD screen. The S8 machines don't do flow rate or centrals though.
You can request the provider/clinical manual here for whichever model to see what it gathers and how to get to it on the LCD screen.
