PR System One REMstar 60 Series
Just to clarify things for myself about the confusing names of Respironics System One models.
My maching is listed as
Respironics PR System One REMstar Pro with C-Flex+
SN P06112207 D39A
This is the a picture of my label from the bottom.does this mean it is a 60 Series?

RE: PR System One REMstar 60 Series
It looks like the model number is 461CA, which I assume means model 461 Canada. In the US we would see model 460P. This is a 60 Series machine as the older 50 Series machine has model number 450P. BTW, I see that the 450P is now available from
Supplier #1 for $269. Wow!
The major difference is that the 60 Series can be outfitted with the heated hose. If your machine can be outitted with the optional heated hose, it's definitely a Series 60 machie.

By the way, I checked with Respironics today and EncoreViewer does not work with the x6x series and they have no plans on making it work. I am out 100.00 on software I can't use. They would not even talk about refund or anything as they are not the retailer. I informed them that they better change their webpage and place a note on what units their software work on.

SleepHead doesn't support 60 series yet
Members here said you need EncoreBasic or Encore Pro 2.8

Thanks Sleepster
Now I know for sure it is a 60 series
I did get the heated hose & a regular hose probably because they didn't have time to remove it & the system came in 2 boxes ( he did mention to me that they normally ship in 1 box) the humidifier had the regular hose & the CPAP with the heated hose.
I have been looking for Encore Pro 2.8 but it must be very new.
Thanks for the info

You are right their Respironics page is not very clear in what works with what in fact it is completely void of that kind of information.
I would be ticked off with spending 100.00 on software I can't use too
I have sent multiple requests for information like about EncoreAnyware but never get any kind of response not even an e-mail confirmation.
I did find something saying it will only work in the US (So much for the any-ware)

Perhaps you can exchange it for EncoreBasic.

This humidifier will not work with the heated tube, and will come with the 60 watt power cord and regular 15mm tube
