Does OSCAR (or any other software) show the actual air pressure used?

Does OSCAR (or any other software) show the actual air pressure used?
Hi all.
I have a Resmed Aircurve 10 Vauto and my pressure prescription is 4 to 25.  But I don't think I ever use a pressure all the way to 25cm so I was wondering if there is any way or software to determine the actual pressures that I use during a session.  There is a section on the "sleep report" on the machine that just says "Pressure" and that setting was 15.4 last night.  Is that the pressure that I actually use?  If so, I think I can lower my pressure from 25cm.  I can't see anywhere in the OSCAR program where this is shown.  Only what the top and bottom pressures are on a given night.  Thanks for your help.  Jeff

Oscar is software on this site. Totally free and gives you that and a tremendous amount more. Down load at the top of the site and go to wiki and search oscar to learn how to use it.

Your pressures are listed on the left side of the Daily screen.   Please see the link in my signature for understanding OSCAR.

Jeff, if you're looking to understand the readings on your AirCurve Screen, order a Clinicians Manual here:

The OSCAR software will show you the minimum, median, 95% and maximum pressure used for the night.
As Crimson Nape said, it would be listed on the left side of the Daily Page in OSCAR.

Your machine records pressures throughout your season in extremely high detail. Simply view OSCAR pressure chart to see what your pressures are
