Old machine down new one on the way - dwd1249 - 11-24-2015
Well I went to connect my Resmart machine to the computer today and before the usb to serial plug got fully into the usb port the cpap machine started beeping. The display just went to a flashing cursor and no response to any button pressed.
I got 3.5 years out of it and it kept me compliant with my sleep doctors able to pass me for buss driving. Now retired.
Any way I ordered a AirSense 10 AutoSet CPAP with Integrated Humidifier by ResMed from the states. Shame about the exchange rate but still cheaper then here.
I hope that I don't have to go to long without my cpap.

Congrats on ordering the new machine. It is a big upgrade in quality. I understand the exchange rate should make for some good buys coming this direction.

I'm sure you tried it, but it bears mentioning that you try unplugging the machine and then plugging it back in several times. About 5 minutes between plug ins. Sometimes that fixes the computer brain.

Hi dwd1249,
CONGRATULATIONS! on the new machine.

3.5 years is not very long. I have just changed from an old basic S8 Escape to the S9 Autoset and I am blown away by the difference. I hope you have a similar experience with your new machine.
