No CA or UA on SleepHead

No CA or UA on SleepHead
Hi, I'm new to the forum and to SleepyHead.  I got a new AirSense 10 autoset machine a little while ago and have been using SleepyHead.  When i first started using it, it displayed the following fields on the Event Flag graph:  LL, CA, OA, H, UA and RE.  About a week ago it stopped displaying CA and UA so all I see is LL, OA, H and RE.  I can still see the CA events under the "Events" Tab on the left below the calendar, but not on the "Event Flags" graph.  I attached a screen shot of the Event Flag graph as it looks now, without the CA and UA fields.
Did something happen to my SleepyHead software??  
Is there some way I can get these two fields to reappear on my "Event Flags" graph? 
Thanks!

Hi Fixit50 - Welcome

Look at two places, First in the bottom left side of the Daily screen is a Flags drop down checkbox. Make sure all events are green (on). Second, check File->Preferences->Events. Make sure that the appropriate events are selected.

Thanks very much Crimson.  That did it.  One more thing.  I'd like to add fields for CSR (Cheyne Stokes) and PB.  For some reason these don't show up though i think (not sure) the Airsense 10 does report these if it sees any.  Neither are seen in the flags or the graphs but they are checked off in File/preferences/Events.  Any ideas?

I don't believe your machine reports these.  I could be wrong. It has happened once before. . . Unsure

You're probably right about that.  I'll see if i can do some checking to find out for sure what is reported by the Airsense 10.  I know the DreamStation reports Periodic breathing.

Thanks for your help!

RE: No CA or UA on SleepHead
I did some checking and found that Resmed says my machine does report Cheyne Stokes Respiration.  See here:
http://www.resmed.com/us/en/consumer/pro...toset.html 
Scroll down to "Other Features" and you will see this on the first bullet line. 
So... the question is shouldn't I be able to get SleepyHead to display a field for Cheyne Stokes and if so how?  Is there some setting somewhere in sleepyhead for this?  I see some breathing patterns that look like Cheyne Stokes but i don't even see where SleepyHead would report a Cheyne Stokes event.  Help will be appreciated!
Thanks!

G'day Fixit. Welcome to Apnea Board.

I've edited your post to make the link work correctly.

Cheyne Stokes Respiration is also reported as "periodic breathing". See if SleepyHead has a periodic breathing or PB flag or graph with your machine.

Some events will not display unless you need them. I know this applies when using and not using a pulse-ox device.  Maybe you need to have CSR events before the CSR label and flag will display.   Thinking-about

I know this is the case with the Dreamstation PB will only show up in the events chart if detected.

Probably the same for ResMed.
