RE: Central Apneas Increase After Changing to Newer BiPAP
There seems to be something wrong! The day befor yesterday I erased the data and reset the machine to the correct local time. Last night I slept in two sessions : approx 4 am-5.55 am (woke up from the sound of a phone call, so that can't be wrong) , and then again probably 7/7.30 am - 11.30 am.
After purging the data in oscar for the last 3 days' and then reimporting the data, it still shows something wrong! I don't understand !

Either way, your AHI is below 2 now. I think it might be a good idea to keep these settings a while and let it settle in. For humidity settings, try manual climate control at a setting of 4 and temperature 80 F or 27 C. Although this sounds the same, the manual settings deliver more moisture. I you need more, then set to 5.

okay.. so same climate setting in auto and manual differ?
also, there is some counting difference.. in both software, I uploaded the last day record. which should be the same. my aircurve is now properly set at local time. I don't understand why the time and date has a large phase shift in OSCAR. ANy suggestions on that?
