Feature request: BMC machine support

Feature request: BMC machine support
I'm hoping this is the right place to post, please let me know otherwise! I've been using OSCAR for some time now with my Philips Dreamstation and it's brilliant. However in many parts of Asia there is a huge markup on Resmed and Philips machines, and access to used or reconditioned machines is limited. The Chinese BMC XPAP machines are by many accounts excellent and being able to import the data into OSCAR would be hugely helpful. Are there any plans for this to happen? I've just ordered a machine for a family member and would be happy to contribute raw data if this helps.

Welcome to the forum,

Good enough.

To add any device we need to breakdown the data structure, to know in detail how it is put together.  Then compare it to the manufacture's program.

We need a zip of the entire SD card, the model of the machine.

RE: Feature request: BMC machine support
Thanks very much. It will probably be a week or two before the machine arrives and I can set it up. It's a BMC GII E20-A APAP machine, I believe it's also known as the Luna in some markets. There is a link to the manufacturer's software in the software section of this forum.
I'll upload an image of the SD card data to Dropbox and send a link via PM to you when it's available, is that OK? How many nights of data would you like?

It will be a while before we can get to it. About a week should do for a start.

I have just received a Luna II from my DME provider and following the status of the data import.  The file structures appear very similar to my ResMed machine but will not import

While the BMC/Luna machines are not currently supported, BMC/Luna support is high on our project list.

Could you make a zip of your SD card and upload it to my Dropbox folder so I can review the data files? Please include your forum name in the zip file name so we know who the file is from.

Thanks!

BMC g2 series are older version cpap and much cheaper. I have tried the newer g3 series, BMC g3 a20 cpap, which is exactly same as BMC Luna sold in Australia. The g3 are half the price of Resmed airsense 10. For more info about the BMC machines, you may checkout BMC company website.

I have a Luna G3 B25A that I would be more than willing to upload the data from, if it would help get OSCAR support.
New CPAP user with data start of 09/13/2022.

Please let me know.

RE: Feature request: BMC machine support
I have PapLink, that allows me to look at data, the challenge is that I have no idea what I'm looking at. lol
Was hoping that, with an OSCAR format, I could get assistance from people that know what they are doing.
New to this CPAP thing, and having a rough time. Just moved from a F20 Fit to an F20 Touch, hoping I can get a better seal with the foam.
Afraid I'll have to shave off the goatee to get the leaks to stop. Also plan to get a F20i setup in Dec to see if that helps.
