RE: Resmed S questions
Look at, read, the link called "Posting SleepyHead Charts in 5 Easy Steps" in my signature.

You have to take the SD card from your CPAP and place it in the reader on your computer.  SleepyHead will read it from there.

RE: Resmed S questions
The SD card goes in just above the intake filter.
You remove the card and read it with the card reader on your computer.
Sleepyhead will present a graphical representation of collected data.

If your PC does not have a slot for an SD card, you can purchase an SD card reader at any big box store or Amazon.
They are inexpensive.

RE: Resmed S9 questions
Hi, first question. My Dr. gave me a prescription to use auto set @ low 7, high 13 setting. I later learned to set to CPAP always on pressure and put on 9, and I think I slept better. Is auto set the better choice? And what is EPR. I think it was originally @ 0. Sound right?

Also, I want to post my results and got stuck on step 2 of the 5 easy steps. Did the screen shot but could not find it. And should I post these daily? Please help.

RE: Resmed S questions
Initially I would put the machine on auto, I would then set the minimum pressure just below the 'med' median pressure in sleepyhead or 2cm below and above the 95% pressure, as seen in the machine 'sleep report' screen next to 'pressure' and the next screen will have your min and max pressure. This can be further adjusted as needed. From the top of the page, you can download the clinical settings manual.
This should get you in range and can be further fine tuned as you learn to post the sleepyhead charts
mask fit http://www.apneaboard.com/wiki/index.php...ask_Primer
For auto-cpap, from machine data or software. You can set the min pressure 1 or 2cm below 95%. Or clinicians commonly use the maximum or 95% pressure for fixed pressure CPAP, this can also be used for min pressure.
