Data not fully loading into OSCAR? - fert - 10-30-2023

One-year APAP user here trying to download my data into OSCAR for the first time in the hope of optimizing my settings. I've successfully downloaded and installed the OSCAR software, and imported the data from my SD card containing machine data. 

While it does look like it is uploading some data, it appears to be incomplete -- my daily AHI and time-used readings are loading, but everything else doesn't. My pressure readings seem to only show my current min/max settings too. The chart axes are all screwy, and the overall GUI + display (attached screenshots) doesn't look anything like what others have posted. 

I've tried messing around in the Preferences, as well as deleting and recreating my Profile - all to no avail. Am I doing something wrong? Any chance someone can shed light?

Thanks in advance

My first question is, did you have the SD card in the AS11 while it was being used? If not, all you will get is summary data,

ah, i did not. apologies if that was rookie/dumb.

my machine shipped without one, and i just purchased one yesterday to download the data. does that mean all i can get up until this point is summary data, and from first night of machine use with the card is when i start getting more granular?

Yes, no SD card in the machine means no detailed data.

Summary data is stored internally and then transfered to the SD card.

Not knowing was the fault of your doctor/DME for not informing you.

ah, darn. okay. thanks very much for indulging my question. 

i guess i'll just have to wait a couple of months for a solid read of data and try again then.

You don't have to wait. When you get up, upload your data to OSCAR. Just remember to return the card back to your CPAP before its next use. You would not believe how many have reported forgetting to put the card back in.

oh, yes. i meant more like i'd like to see the results over a number of nights to see what it looks like, vs. making any conclusions based on a couple nights of sleep. 

or is that not necessary?

One night's data will show if you are in the ballpark. The first night's data after adjustment will show if your therapy is going in the correct direction. As you fine tune your settings, more time is needed to see the slight changes.
