RE: CPAP Machine Choices - read this before you accept a new machine
Well I read the article, and doesn't look like my machine is recommended. To my knowledge the only thing I can get out of it is info from the dreammapper app on my phone. My sleep clinic gave me no options for machines.

Hi Lee, Can you be more specific as to what DreamStation you have? Looks like your using a pressure range so it much be the DreamStation Auto. Here is a list of supported machines for the OSCAR Software. http://www.apneaboard.com/wiki/index.php...d_machines

GI looked at my paperwork it doesn't show a mode just a serial number. All I know is from last December to January it was set at 8 then they set it to vary between 8 and 12. I'm catching nothing but grief over at cpap talk.

You are using a pressure “range”, so you have an Auto Cpap (DreamStation Auto)
To find your model #: [attachment=11742] BTW...Welcome to Apnea Board!

Your machine should have an SD card in it. If not, you can purchase one almost anywhere.
The machine will write the data to the SD card. Install OSCAR on your computer. Once you have software installed, insert the SD card into your computer. Upload the data to the software. Then follow the directions below in my signature line to post a screenshot here. Once you are ready, start a new thread with your data.
