OSCAR v1.4.0 is released - GuyScharf - 06-17-2022 Quote: OSCAR v1.4.0 Release It's here folks: https://www.sleepfiles.com/OSCAR/ with DreamStation 2 support. The major change in this release is the addition of support for the Philips Respironics DreamStation 2. Other changes have been made as listed below. We recommend everyone update to this latest version of OSCAR. Philips Respironics and the DreamStation 2 This time Philips Respironics threw us a curve ball. Coinciding with a recall for nearly every consumer machine they have built in the last large number of years, Philips released the DreamStation 2, which is unaffected by recall. The recall was of "All Affected Devices Manufactured Before 26 April 2021, All Device Serial Numbers." Philips Respironics has encrypted the data on the DreamStation 2 so that they can control and monetize that data by making it accessible, for a fee, to their providers only and only with their proprietary system Care-Orchestrator. With considerable effort, the OSCAR team has been able to decrypt the data so that OSCAR can show you the data from your machine. The changes made by Philips in the DreamStation 2 are harmful to patient empowerment, making it more difficult for you to manage your own sleep apnea therapy. So far the OSCAR Team has found three major changes made by Philips in the DreamStation 2 devices:
Item #1 speaks for itself. All detailed data is encrypted and as such is not available to the end-user from Phillips Respironics. (As noted above, OSCAR can currently access this information). Item #3 outright says that Philips is taking away access to even basic humidification from the end-users. Risks: This is a big one. This trend within Philips Respironics to make all new devices so that ONLY clinical personnel will have access to your medical data is growing. Philips Respironics has chosen to make some new devices so that ONLY clinical personnel will be able to change settings on the CPAP with access solely through Care Orchestrator, eliminating the Provider Menu. That appears to have been done on the DreamStation 2 (NOT ADVANCED) devices. Changes and fixes in OSCAR v1.4.0 Portions of OSCAR are © 2019-2022 by The OSCAR Team
RE: OSCAR v1.4.0 is released - Millstone50 - 06-17-2022 Thank you for updating the software; I'd like to report an issue So my install went through, detected that I used a DreamStation Pro (in the past), and went to upgrade the database. Now it says the last time I used my DreamStation was 176 days ago, which makes sense. However everything since that date when I've been using my AirSense 11 is gone. RE: OSCAR v1.4.0 is released - Crimson Nape - 06-17-2022 If you were using an Alpha or Beta copy of the software, then it was using a different OSCAR_Data folder. Look for a data directory with a "-testing" suffix. RE: OSCAR v1.4.0 is released - Aflash73 - 06-17-2022 Hi! I used the Export Data/CSV Export Wizard but never saw a place to define where to send the CSV file to and can't find it using a C: drive search. I hope you can help me with this. Thanks :-) RE: OSCAR v1.4.0 is released - Millstone50 - 06-17-2022 (06-17-2022, 07:29 PM)Crimson Nape Wrote: If you were using an Alpha or Beta copy of the software, then it was using a different OSCAR_Data folder.

RE: OSCAR v1.4.0 is released - Sleeprider - 06-17-2022 Get the latest update to make your Dreamstation 2 machines compatible with Oscar. Thanks to the development team for making this possible. RE: OSCAR v1.4.0 is released - Hmm888 - 06-18-2022 I'm going to ask anyway at the risk of being flamed. Does this new version allow split noon for shift workers? I know on another site there's an online beta version for sleep diagnostic software like SH and Oscar. I read someone was asking about the same for the Air Sense 11 and the response from the developers that they'll add that feature to future version(s). So obviously, it's do-able. RE: OSCAR v1.4.0 is released - Crimson Nape - 06-18-2022 Yes, it still splits the day at noon. This is in the CPAP's firmware. This is just my opinion, but the other site will probably offer the split fix about a week after the OSCAR coders figure how to implement it and publish the code. RE: OSCAR v1.4.0 is released - Samultra - 06-18-2022 Well done Fellas -- creating the Dreamstation 2 decrypting, reading and displaying software. Should my Dreamstation 1 get replaced by a Dreamstation 2 I will not hesitate anymore, now being able to read and interprete my own(ed) user data Thank you for all your efforts Sam RE: OSCAR v1.4.0 is released - pirate - 06-18-2022 I just downloaded and installed the latest version 1.4.0. The software wanted to update the database but didn't pull in any of the data from my Resmed AirSense 10. It now says the last time I used my old System One 60 was 536 days ago (December 28, 2020). How do I get the rest of the data incorporated into the database? |
