Any news on making the respironics Bluetooth module useful - joemac05 - 08-26-2014
I just installed the Bluetooth module on my respironics system one and it connects to my desktop computer just fine as comm 4. Not much use so far... I was hoping it might save me packing the SD card back and forth.
Now it seems it isn't of any use for downloading the data to sleepyhead. I was hoping it might show up as a data storage device. The sleep-mapper software is of no real value to anyone interested in what is actually going on. Thanks goodness for sleepyhead !!!
Is there any news of progress being made in this regard? Or any other suggestion for connecting to the system one without taking the data card in and out every time?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions or info.
Regards,
-Joemac

You are a step ahead of me. When you figure it out I would love to know how to do the same. Let us know what you learn.

I thought it was supposed to connect to the app on the smartphone for uploads? I have the program installed on my computer. It updates every time I put in the SD card for sleepyhead.
Either way, it doesn't present much data. Just Mask Fit, Therapy Hours and AHI.

Thanks for the replies folks....
I'm new at this, just started a little over a month ago and got my own machine last week. I must say I sure do feel a lot better and have developed quite an interest in what's going on. SleepyHead is a dream come true for watching the goings on each night. I got all excited and ordered some gizmos. I have Pulse Oximeter CMS 50E coming next week. I hope I have more luck with that.
Meanwhile I shall put the bluetooth adapter on the "should have done more research" pile for now.

I was going over my data with SleepyHead this morning and the more I use it the more I appreciate all the care and effort that has gone into it.
I was so impressed that I actually sent in a donation..
It is obviously a labor of love.Regards,
