PC mode:
the device automatically switches to PC mode as soon as the device is
connected to a PC via a USB cable. The analysis results for the recording currently saved
can be imported into the PC software. The device switches off after 5 minutes if no data
transfer takes place. The following settings can be programmed using the PC software

Diagnostic nasal cannula
The diagnostic nasal cannula detects respiratory flow and
snoring in combination with the pressure sensor
integrated in the device. Inspiration is registered by the
vacuum generated, exhalation by the overpressure
generated. Snoring generates pressure fluctuations in
the nostrils which are likewise registered.
Signal display and automatic analysis are matched to the
genuine diagnostic nasal cannula. SOMNO

may only be used in conjunction with the genuine
diagnostic nasal cannula.
Pulsoximetry sensor / CARDIO-Sensor
The pulsoximetry sensor detects pulsoximetric signals, in
other words, the patient’s blood oxygen saturation and
pulse frequency. Its primary components are two LEDs
and a receiver diode.
Several oxygen saturation values are determined for each
pulse wave (split pulse wave algorithm). If a signal is
