So Did I screw up and get the wrong machine? - jasonarmstrong - 06-07-2017

This is the one everyone recommends right? http://www.resmed.com/us/en/consumer/products/devices/airsense-10-autoset.html

This is the one I got I think  I got need to check when I get home - http://www.resmed.com/us/en/consumer/products/devices/airsense-10-elite.html

problem is that the sleep study I did 13 months ago I weighed 275, and my pressure setting was determined to be 10 , dropped from 14, now I am back up to 305 310 in which that sleep study and weight were in align with the 14?

Do I need to the doc to write a script for the APAP or will the data reveal the pressure is not enough and they can make adjustments remotely....

so confused.
I did get a new mask that fits perfect and full face smaller just covers the mouth - no seal problems like the quattro pro.

Commercial Link Removed, instead search Supplier #1 for AirFit F20 Cpap Mask.

You are correct.  Both the Airsense 10  Elite and Autoset are full data capable.  The only difference is the Autoset can be set to a either a pressure range or single pressure, whereas the Elite is a single pressure only.  The model to avoid it the Airsense 10 CPAP.

If you have anything other than the  Airsense 10 CPAP, download #SleepyHead to obtain detailed information of your sleep therapy.

Thank you as always (from the great staff here and members) for the rapid response.
i am pretty sure that I have the Elite as it came with instructions on how to obtain sleep data from the resmed/app.

I don't have a true computer ...that I can down load software too, except work, will the sleepyhead software work with a smart phone or tablet, and I just got a lenovo chromebook

No it won't at this time.  Are you allowed to install personal software on your work 'puter?

The model I do have has a SD card slot...I guess I should have asked more ?'s but the tech doing the "training" said that I could view data on how I sleep so I hope that means I got the elite.
Still searching for that perfect night's sleep...and viewing it will help. I guess that I was so excited they finally got me a machine after 6 weeks that I forgot all that I was instructed to do ask on here. I'll feel bad if I am stuck with a brick. I will go back to the doc and see if I can get a different prescription if it is a brick...

The newer AS 10's aren't being shipped with a SD card installed.  Any SD card 2gb or larger is all that is needed.   You'll be hard pressed to find one as small as 2Gb now anyway.   A lot of us use the Toshiba WiFi card so we don't have to keep transporting it to and from the computer.  For me, I'm just plain lazy.  

If you are still in doubt about which model you have, here is a visual identification image:

[It should say "AutoSet, AutoSet for Her, Elite or CPAP"]

Autoset, Autoset For Her, or Elite = Good!
CPAP = Brick!

unfortunately not.
I will pick up a windows laptop next paycheck..not looking to get some superpower gaming  one so I should be able to get one for under $500 (windows op system)

I can save the chromebook for my niece for a birthday present - really at home I just surf the web and use it for netflix etc..
