Dreamstation 2 Auto CPAP Advanced firmware - arnold1205 - 07-11-2022

Is there any place we can get the firmware for the Dreamstation 2 Advanced firmware? 

It appears that the humidifier message that keep mysteriously popping up can be resolved with a firmware update, but waiting for our DME supplier will take ages.

This is the second replacement CPAP machine for this same issue, last time around we ended up just exchange for a new unit, and that was only 3 months ago.

In times past, we had access to the Philips firmware updates.  But they've chosen to hide those links from patients now.

Part of their "keep medical data out of the hands of patients" campaign, I suspect.   [see here]

Philips is now standing in direct opposition the Apnea Board philosophy of "patient empowerment".   Annoyed-and-disappointed

Does anyone know what the current firmware version actually is?


RE: Dreamstation 2 Auto CPAP Advanced firmware - Lucky7 - 09-15-2023

the answer is: v1.0.7.xxxx

I think the only choice, if you really want a firmware update for the DS2 is to try a local DME or supplier.


RE: Dreamstation 2 Auto CPAP Advanced firmware - Lucky7 - 09-15-2023

Yeah, that's correct. And...it's painful.

I wouldn't upgrade to v1.0.7. It seemed to make the "phantom disconnects bug" wayyyyyyyyy worse.

Any success downloading the dream station 2 advanced firmware? My backup machine with no foam.


RE: Dreamstation 2 Auto CPAP Advanced firmware - SuperSleeper - 12-16-2024

Nope.
Sad

I tried FB messenger and got the typical response from Phillips.

" You will need to take your device to your medical equipment provider, and they will be able to update the firmware for you if needed."

My provider got out of the CPAP business.
