OSCAR Help

This installation guide is part of the suite of OSCAR help articles. See OSCAR Help

Download page

OSCAR is available at the official download page: https://sleepfiles.com/OSCAR/

There are OSCAR versions available for Windows, Apple Mac and Linux. Detailed instructions may be found at the following links:

You may also read the page in a number of different languages - the list of languages is along the top of the page.

OSCAR is open source software, and there are links to the source code near the bottom of the page. Note that this is for software developers - the great majority of users don't need to worry about the source code.

Migrating SleepyHead data

OSCAR needs to set up a folder to store your data in. It can also migrate your existing SleepyHead data across to the new OSCAR data folder.
Migrating SleepyHead data

Copying SleepyHead data (Advanced users)

If you have not migrated your SleepyHead data as part of the OSCAR installation, you may be able to copy the raw data into your Oscar data file later. Note that this will only work if SleepyHead has backed up the raw data as it's downloaded. If you don't have the data backed up, this process will not work.

Location of backup files

SleepyHead's default configuration will back up your raw data into a folder(s) in your profile directory. The typical path in Windows is

 C:\...\SleepyHead\Profiles\Yourname\Machine\Backup 

(see image below).

Copying raw data

In OSCAR's Welcome page select the CPAP Importer icon. Alternatively select File | Import Data from the menu or press Shift|F2. OSCAR will search for an SD card: If the card is found it will bring up a dialog asking if that is where you want to import the data from. If there is no card, it will try to find a data directory on the hard drive(s).

On the dialog, select Specify, which will take you to a file selector dialog. Navigate to the location of your backup data and select the Backup folder. OSCAR will then copy the raw data from the backup folder to the OSCAR data folder. If you have more than one machine in your profile, you will need to copy the data from each one individually.

Once the data has been copied across, check the Overview page to ensure there are no unexpected gaps. It is wise to validate the data transfer by viewing a few randomly selected days in both SleepyHead and Oscar to ensure the data is unchanged.
