Why doesn't my Respironics Medical Equipment base station appear on the network in Alice Sleepware?
- A
  amygallagherAug 16, 2025
  Several factors could prevent the base station from appearing on the network. Verify that your computer's network interface is active and that both the computer and base station are on the same network. Ensure the base station is plugged in, powered on, and the Ready LED is green. Check your network cabling, ensuring you're using the correct cable (CAT-5 Crossover or CAT-5 Patch) for your setup. If you're using a network router, confirm that the Alice 5 and the computer are on the same side of it during device addition. If these steps don't work, temporarily connect the base station directly to the computer to add the device, or manually enter the device's IP address in the Add Device wizard.

  First, ensure your computer meets the minimum specifications required to run the Alice Sleepware software. Insufficient memory or an incompatible system can prevent proper installation. Check the Alice Sleepware CD packaging for a list of required specifications. Also, verify that you are logged into your computer as an administrator, as restricted users may not be able to install the software. Log in as an administrator, install the software, and then revert the privileges back to restricted, if needed.

  If your computer can't communicate with your wireless device, ensure all interfaces on your computer are active. Then, verify your device settings, including the IP address, channel, and encryption, match what you entered when adding the device in Sleepware. Mismatched settings will prevent communication.

Why is the Ready LED on my Respironics Medical Equipment base station stuck on yellow?
- C
  calvin62Aug 28, 2025
  When you first plug in the device, the Ready LED will light up as yellow, indicating power is supplied but the device isn't ready. Within 8 minutes, the light should turn green, signaling readiness. If it doesn't, the Alice 5 will automatically reboot and try again. Try unplugging the base station and plugging it back in. If the light remains yellow after 8 minutes, the device requires servicing.

Why is the Add/Modify Device option grayed out in the Respironics Alice Starter Bar?
- H
  hillkellySep 3, 2025
  If the Add/Modify Device option is grayed out, it's likely because you currently have an acquisition running. You cannot select this option while an acquisition is in progress. To add or modify a device, stop the running acquisition or wait for it to complete.

  smithbrandiSep 6, 2025
  First, check your power cord and power supply connections to ensure they are properly plugged in. If the problem persists, try plugging the device into a different wall outlet. If the LED still doesn't light, you may have a faulty power supply or power cord.
