ResScan Detailed Graphs

[Airlift]

Newbie here. Downloaded Sleepy Head and ResScan software to compare. As to ResScan, when the program is open I see the Stat's and Summary Graphs ok, but when I click on the tab for Detailed Graphs, it says "No detailed data available." The Sleepy Head program has all kinds of detail. I thought I was carefully downloading each program and following this board's excellent guidelines and cautions. What might I have missed with ResScan, I'm wondering.

CPAP: ResMed AirSense 10 AutoSet
ResScan; Version 5.5
Computer: Win 8.1, IE 11

Thanks for any pointers.

When you click Download data, make sure Data is set to All available data.

Thanks AlanE. I read and believe I followed this cautionary instruction to the letter, pressing the lower 'Select' button for downloading 'all' data. Do you know of any other possible cause? If not, do I need to uninstall the program before i try downloading it again? Thanks again. --Neil McD

SD card was not inserted in the machine during the night, but that doesn't appear to be the case as SleepyHead report detailed data graphs
I would try delete this session and download again following the above instruction, and choose the "discard" option, if data already exist for previous sessions. If downloading for the first time, the "discard/overwrite" option, doesn't appear during the download

Hmm. I reviewed ResScan before re-downloading the entire program from ground zero. Now, with the program open and the 'Detailed Graphs' tab pressed, and after clicking on one particular day in the left-hand margin, a tiny 'button' imprinted with that date appears in the large right-hand 'Review' area, with a tiny instruction above it, saying: 'Click to load detailed data.' Clicking that button then opens all detailed graphs for that day, in the large right-hand area. I guess the problem is somehow resolved. Sorry I bothered you and thanks again. --Neil McD

Unfortunately ResScan was not made for the average joe.

ResScan seems to continue this crazy practice of trying to reduce data download times for busy practitioners interested in only compliance data. I can see how this was a result of complaints about long download times in a previous era when computers were much slower. Now, it seems more time is wasted making sure we're downloading what we want to download.

A similar argument applies to the deleting of detailed data after seven days. That may have been necessary when storage capacities of SD cards was small. Now you can save a decade's worth of detailed data on a card, so there's no need for this craziness.

To clarify, I reviewed ResScan *instead of* re-downloading the program from scratch. So I'm not sure what caused the program's change. This detail will require some study to comprehend everything. I'm enjoying it so far but wonder about its time demand.

This might helps:
1- ResScan 3.12 video tutorial http://apneaboard.com/resscan.htm
2- ResScan interpretation guide http://www.apneaboard.com/ResScan_Interp...-Guide.pdf

Thanks, Zonk, have read thru the Interpretative Guide but need to study it. The video tutorial wouldn't open for me but I have ResScan version 5.5 anyway -- and small differences seem to matter. So much to study! It seems lots of people at the Apnea Board have collectively banked tons of info. Commendable!!
