Creating a Profile: Tidy up and noting that separate profiles are recommended for multiple machines. Also - what about preferences before importing data??
== Creating a Profile ==
If you have migrated your data from a previous SleepyHead installation, Oscar will automatically migrate your SleepyHead profile(s) as well. (See [http://www.apneaboard.com/wiki/index.php?title=OSCAR_Installation#Migrating_SleepyHead_data Migrating data]). Otherwise when you first open up OSCAR, you will be asked to create a profile.  Your data is associated with a profile and you may have multiple profiles and each may have multiple CPAPS associated with it. It is normal to However if you have more than one profile with all your data associated with machine (especially if they are different brands), it is recommended that each machine be in its own profile.
To read more about creating and maintaining profiles, see [[http://www.apneaboard.com/wiki/index.php/OSCAR_Organization_-_Profile_Page OSCAR Profile Page]]
== Import Data ==
Once the profile is finished and saved, OSCAR will display a welcome page that looks like this:<br /><br />
As the page says, it's reasonable to click on Preferences and double check some things first. If you need help, [[#Important preferences settings|jump to 7. Important preference settings]]
<!-- ^^ What the heck does this mean? A newbie won't know what preferences to set -->
You will see that the options to select statistics, overview or daily view are greyed out until you have loaded (imported) some data into OSCAR.
