You don't have to have the software to see how many apnea or hypopnea events you are having. That data can be accessed from the LCD display. If you ask your equipment supplier or doctor, they may tell you how to do that. Unfortunately, it will only show the averages instead of detailed information. I can't tell you how to do this since it would probably violate the rules of this forum and I have to respect the rules. I think this forum is invaluable and am not willing to get kicked out.

I am fortunate that my doctor gives me a lot of leeway when it comes to tinkering with my own equipment. Of course, that might be because I have 25 years experience in plant operations at a cryogenic natural gas plant. Compared to the equipment and control systems that I operate and program daily at work, these machines have the complexity of a rock. I'd like to have the software too. But it takes about a hundred and fifty dollars in addition to a doctor's prescription to obtain it. A couple of weeks ago, I was about ready to try to get the software and then I found out that it was restless leg syndrome instead of my sleep apnea that was causing my recent problems.
