EncoreViewer 2.0 Software with CPAP.com USB SD Memory Card Reader for PR System One Machines

As pointed out by earlier reviewers, this software doesn't work on newer PC's. The fix someone touted required us to buy new software from microsoft. So I dragged out my old PC. The program loaded ok, but when I went to read the card, the program was "not responding." Tried a number of times without success.

really tells you how your doing

The program itself is good, but since it won't install on 64 bit computers, it is useless for many owners of modern computers.

If you have a 64-bit system, you will need a 32-bit system to make it work. Yes, sounds strange but its true. Google online how to make it work. And the trick does work, as it is working fine on my 64-bit Windows 7 system.

If you have a Mac computer, this software wont work for you. Make sure you read the description of what kind of computer you need to run this software on.

CHECK YOUR MACHINE'S REPORTING CAPABILITIES BEFORE YOU BUY THIS SOFTWARE. I had been led to believe, by my doctor, that my machine was recording information on all aspects of my therapy including leaks, apneas, and a bunch of other stuff I don't even understand. I believed that all the information I could possibly need to monitor what was happening during sleep was on that little card and all I needed was the software to read it. When I got the software I loaded it and imported my data. (This was all very easy to do, by the way). My excitement was crushed when the report only contained basic compliance information (% of nights used, etc.) and graphs showing how long the machine had been on. It's good info but I wouldn't have spent $100 for it. I called Respironics and the rep explained that my particular machine only recorded the most basic information...not anything I needed to help me monitor my sleep therapy. Now I'm stuck with some very good software and no useful data to help give me a clue about what's going on at night. Now I have to wait until I can get a new machine in a couple of years. Then, hopefully, I will be able to use this very good software and memory card reader for what it was intended for.

CPAP.com is a great site and very easy to order from. My software arrived in just two days! The less-expensive cpap.com USB SD memory card reader works just fine - no need to buy the more expensive one. The software opened up just fine on my old Dell computer. Not really any options to set. You can select from one night up to all the nights on your memory card and view averages for a bunch of parameters. You can save or print. There's a glossary of terms but I can envision putting some of my data up on CPAPTalk to get help with what it all means!

I was pleased when this product finally became available. It really doesn't change my therapy, but I am one who just likes some idea of what's going on with my sleep and breathing at night.

I check my AHI daily now, instead of just wondering what happened last night. I see if I had mask leaks, snoring, and other interesting info. Not sure how accurate it all is, but it is knowledge and knowledge is power! Take control of your apnea with this item.

Be aware, as it states in the product Specs, software is not compatible with 64-bit machines. However, I have Windows XP Mode (standalone XP operating system running under Windows 7) on my 64-bit machine and Viewer software installed and runs fine. XP mode is free from Microsoft to run "legacy" applications which won't run under Win 7. Card reader to USB is plug and play, no issues.

Excellent equipment!! I´m very satisfied!!

Easy to use
