Need help reading combined sessions AHI
Hello - I've only been at this for 2 weeks and things are going pretty well. I've already read the beginners guide to sleepyhead but couldn't find my answer.
So, I get up once at night to go to the bathroom and turn the machine off and back on.
The Daily report has the 2 sessions but I don't understanding which report is showing. I've attached a shot of the one showing 8 hrs 11 minutes with an AHI of .86. The bottom of the side bar shows 2 green bars on the sessions, and the 2nd session is highlighted yellow. Is this AHI for the whole night or is it just for one session?
The statistics report shows avg hrs 8.33 and AHI .82. - I assume that's for the whole night?
MyAir says my I had .8 events per hour.
However, I didn't show the other shot, but when I click on the other session it shows an AHI of 1.22 - so I'm confused.
I want to know what it was for the whole night on the Daily- so do I look at the top to see if it's showing the total number of hrs?
Those bottom buttons are confusing with green and red bars, etc.

The Daily report actually shows three sessions, but the first one for 22min is not turned on.
Click on the red/black box to turn on. The box will then show green/black.
Now the report will total all three session hours and the AHI will include all three sessions.
This should correspond with the numbers on the statistics page.
