If you want a PC batch file that will quickly backup your SD card, paste the following into a text file, edit it and name the file backup_sd.bat :

@echo off
ECHO -=Setting up this backup file on a PC:=-
ECHO Find out the Windows drive letter of your SD card.
ECHO Mine is I:
ECHO Edit this file and change every occurrance of I: to
ECHO whatever your drive letter you have.
ECHO Change the destination below from C:\#BAK\sleep\MOST_RECENT_BACKUP to
ECHO whatever folder you want to use for storing the data from your card.
ECHO If the destination folder you specify doesn't exist, it will be created.
ECHO You're done editing, save this file as backup_sd.bat
ECHO Drag *that to your Start menu.
ECHO Use that to backup your Rescan data with two keystrokes.
ECHO.
ECHO Use this at your own risk. It will overwrite files
ECHO without asking.
ECHO.
ECHO To restore your data: edit this file again,
ECHO swap the source and destination, save file as ECHO restore_sd.bat.
ECHO.
ECHO ........................................................Sweet dreams.
echo.
PAUSE
IF NOT EXIST I:\\. goto NotExist
xcopy /y /s /e I:\*.* c:\#BAK\sleep\MOST_RECENT_BACKUP
goto out

:NotExist
echo.
echo Insert the SD card and try again.
echo.
pause

I was creating a Monthly "Detailed Data" Report which shows daily activity. All I Had to do was highlight all the days in the month that are shown in the left hand column. Than click on "Detailed Data" and a pop-up would show up with all the days listed and checked off.
All of a sudden when I follow that same procedure only one day appears in the pop-up and not the whole month.
Any ideas asto what I have done wrong and how do I correct this and go back to my monthly report?
Thanks

My Machine is a Rem Star Auto A-flex. I have loaded the rescan software but it does not recognise the data source! Any suggestions?

Welcome to the forum Inky!!! We are glad you joined us!!!

In answer to your question, the RemStar APAP machine you have is manufactured by Philips Respironics. The ResScan software is made to display, manipulate, etc. data for XPAP machines manufactured by ResMed.

In other words, you can not use ResScan to view data from your machine. Kind of like Ford vs. Chevy. They both do the same thing but they are not compatible with each other.

You can use the open source software, SleepyHead, to view your data, You can download it from the link HERE. You may need to download the so-called "Series 60 patch" depending on the model of your machine.

Happens sometimes. It's best to download the software during off-peak (non busy) times locally. Internet gets bottlenecked during the day. Try very early in the morning or late a night - that's usually the cause for what you're experiencing.

Make sure you completely delete the old incomplete file before attempting another download, though.

I've been lucky enough to find this forum helping me not oinly to update my old 3.1 version of ResScan, but probably more interesting was the access to the "how to" interpretation document which says a lot on how things are going.
This new versions is more robust than the previous one I had (which crashed when it had too many detailed day to print), and adds interesting new graphs.

It allows me to have a much more accurate report to my doctor.
Thanks all for the grat work and making all this stuff and all your comments as well available to us.

RemStar is not by ResMed, but a brand by Respironics (=Philips). You could try SleepyHead software, although I doubt...

I would like to thank everyone for their help. I now use Sleepyhead with works great, I hope I can be of assistance to someone to repay the kindness given, thanks again.

Hi there, greetings from germany, the link which is pointing to list for ResScan compatability is broken/doesn't work.

It seems, that Softwarare 4.2 in german is not finished yet.
It works, but there are some buttons in special windows, which are not fully seeable. Sometimes the user is not able to push it, because those buttons don't fit in the program-windows.
Please excuse my english. Hope everyone is able to understand, what I've tried to explain.
