Importing data
I just updated my computer, i thought i'd backed up everything, but obviously not, the rescan data is missing.
Sleepyhead still contains all my data from the last year or so. Can someone tell me how i can export the sleepyhead data into Rescan?
I've tried everything i can think of, but no joy.
On a separate note, when I try and export resmed data I get the following error:
ExportPatient [D:\Program Files\ResMed\ResScan3\Patients\] Caught Exception ...]
any ideas, can anyone explain what I should be doing? the exporting of Resmed data is secondary, important thing for me is getting the old data back (From Sleepyhead)
Thanks

As I recall, that's not going to be possible. I could be wrong but I think the downloaded data stored by SH is not in the same format as it is in ResScan.

RE: Importing data
I was just digging around in the file folder of both. Sleepy head looks to keep it's data files in the folder called Resmed_serialNumber, under your patient name. BUT notice there is a sub-folder also in that folder called backup. Another sub-folder called datalog, just like on your SD card. Inside the datalog folder is a full set of EDF files with all the corresponding data. SO, it looks like Sleepyhead does an automatic backup for us. By the way the EDF files is what Rescan reads off your SD card.
So, Sleepster is correct in that the two programs use different file formats, but SH keeps your original data backup up. Good luck!!
