Updated Oscar but wrong data?

Updated Oscar but wrong data?
Hello! I recently updated my version of Oscar and the data is wrong. My minimum pressure is set to 10.6 and they have it as 7.26?? Anyone else have this issue?

That is because the Resmed stars reporting immediately on certain parameters and not others. Your pressure had risen to 7.26, on the way to 10.6, when the Resmed started recording this parameter. Other parameters won't report until almost a minute after starting. You need to ignore any minimum values.

TL;DR: This will be fixed in the next version of OSCAR.

In the past, OSCAR would skip the first 40 seconds of pressure data to prevent the initial zero value from showing up in the graph and statistics. This skipping was thought not to be needed and removed in 1.3.0. That let some zero (or small) values at the beginning show up. In the next release, OSCAR will skip the first 5 seconds of these misleading numbers so should eliminate these "strange" pressure values.

Okay, but this never happened in the last version. I guess I will ignore it. The other info should be correct.

The change from skipping 40 seconds to not skipping anything was made in version 1.3.0.

In version 1.3.1 it will skip 10 seconds (five 2-second periods) to give (hopefully) enough time for the pressure to stabilise at the set minimum.
