Dreammapper is a totally lame software and will let a gale blow through your mask before it flags a severe leak. The Dreammapper is all about encouraging use, and will score high if you have enough hours in therapy, even if there are a lot of events or leaks. Oscar can break down the leaks on a breath by breath basis and let you know a lot more about what is going on.

Hi akstella,

Have your requested your clinicians manual?   You will learn how to use your DreamStation and make adjustments to your therapy if necessary.

You probably won't get help from your DME and I wouldn't count on DreamMapper for information.  But you will receive help here, but first we need you to do your part.

You've downloaded OSCAR, now we need to see some data to advise.  

Many of us have links in our signature lines to guide you.

First, do you have a SD card in your Cpap?  Any card from 2gb to 32gb will do.  
This must be in your machine while you sleep.  If not, there will be no data.  

DreamMapper is a totally different thing and not related to OSCAR.  

Please read this link.

We will need to see a Screenshot of the daily page in OSCAR.  The link above will guide you.
