Possible for resmed airsense 10 autoset/Sleepyhead to report false 0.0 AHI?

Question 
Possible for resmed airsense 10 autoset/Sleepyhead to report false 0.0 AHI?
I'm now 97 days into treatment and have gone from an AHI in my sleep study of 42 to an average of 0.58 over the past 97 days.  I've had a couple of 0.0 AHI nights since I started up until the last 3 days where I have had three 0.0 AHI nights in a row.  Is it possible for my machine and or Sleepyhead to be missing events and under-reporting my AHI or am I being paranoid?  I've attached last nights chart in case anyone notices anything that looks strange.  Thanks.

Congrats on the great progress. Nothing wrong with those results. The pressure responds to flow limitations and heads off any events.

possible 
yes

but if you believe the 0.58 number then i would believe the 0 value too 

be happy the machine is working so well for you 
now if you dont feel good, have headaches, are tired and sleepy, then i would doubt all the numbers

Hi pcplus2,
On the s9 machines, they used to recommend that you unplug them for about 5 minutes or so, then plug them back in if you got more than 1 0 AHI night in a row, but I don’t know if the AirScense10 machines have that same problem.
Hang in there for more answers to your question.
