Resmed Data Change - anonEmouse2004 - 12-28-2022
Apparently, Resmed has decided to privatize its CPAP data and make it no longer available on SD. Are there any options or workarounds available? I've been using Oscar since they picked up the SleepyHead project and would like to continue doing so with my next machine. Is there a valid ( not self-protective or monetary) reason they did this?

This would be news to me, if true. The latest version of OSCAR v1.4.0 handles the data from the S9, AS10, and AS11 CPAP machines.
It was Philips Respironics that decided to encrypt the data on the SD card, and after some considerable effort, members of the OSCAR team mangaed to work out the decryption keys, so OSCAR v1.4.0 reads the data from the DreamStation 2 as well as earlier models

That would be true of Philips as they encrypted the DS2 data and have taken the actions you have accused ResMed of. The main purpose of v1.40 of OSCAR was to make that encrypted data on the DS2 available to you the user.
If you meant ResMed please provide references that we can check that out. Please let us know either way.

I must be misremembering then. I don't recall where I read it so I must not be recalling things correctly. Perhaps it was Philips I read about and mentally made the connection to Resmed. Either way, I'm glad to be wrong about this.
So, to straighten out my confusion, both the Resmed 10 AirSense 10 AutoSet (Card-To-Cloud) and the AirSense 11 AutoSet (pushing the MyAir app) have readable SD cards. I'm considering a backup machine and have been a bit hung up on this.
RE: Resmed Data Change - pholynyk - 12-29-2022
That's correct. All AS10 and AS11 machines create SD card data that OSCAR can read.

Thanks. I'm glad to be mistaken about this.
