You got the box. You plugged it in. Now you're staring at two little boards, not really sure what they're supposed to do or what happens next. Totally normal. Here's the rundown.
Well, first of all, congrats, and I appreciate you trusting me enough to get your data flowing with my build.
So what's the purpose of this device? Basically it serves as a bridge between your CPAP and wherever you want your data to go: the CpapDash App, the cloud, or really any other app (like hms-cpap) that can pull the files off the WiFi SD card on your own network. The Miner reads the card, the Mule hands the data off. That's the whole job.
Set it up from the app
Download the CpapDash App and start a new setup. The app finds the Mule over Bluetooth and shows it to you by name, no pairing code to type at this point. Tap Configure Device.
Next it asks for your network details: your home WiFi, and the ezShare SD card's WiFi so the Miner knows how to reach it. Below that is the one real decision you'll make here, Operating Mode.
Local or cloud, your call
Local Proxy keeps everything on your phone. The app reads straight from the Mule & Miner on your own network, and nothing gets sent out, not even to the CpapDash cloud. Pure privacy. If that's all you want, you're done right here, skip to the sleeping part.
Cloud Push sends your data to your own private profile on cpapdash.com. You create a free account, and from then on it lives there until you decide to download it and wipe it. The upside is you can get to your nights from anywhere, even when you're away from home and your phone's nowhere near the device.
If you go cloud, the last step is claiming the device to your account. Punch in the serial number and pairing code printed on the sticker that came with it. One tap and it's linked.
Then just sleep
Either way, the magic is the morning after. You open the app and last night is just there: AHI, pressure, leak, events, oxygen, all of it, with nothing for you to plug in or import.
Your other main responsibility is to sleep. Seriously.
