Diasend Website

I have been using an Animas Vibe since early this year but have never used ezManager as it apparently not compatible with the Vibe. That being the case, Diasend is the ONLY option for us(here in Australia at least, assuming other countries will be the same) if we want to have access to our pump data/reports and if you are away somewhere with no internet access then you have no data or reports available to you either.

Part of the agreement that MUST be accepted before being able to use Diasend is that you waive ALL rights to any data(pump/meter/CGMS) uploaded. That is/will be a VAST amount of data and worth big $, it gives me a feeling like they are holding my data for ransome!(oh what a dramatic flare I have!)

I assume Medtronic have a similar clause in their agreement for CareLink Personal(online version, guess who never read it!) but at least they have CareLink Pro which I used and it stored its data locally on the PC you run it on(as far as I know). I am now informed that I should not have been sent the software as it is only for use at clinics so again people/patients using the pumps are FORCED to use the online versions.

If they asked and were upfront about what information they collect and how it is used I more than likely wouldn't care but the way these companies are going about their data collection just 'goes against the grain' with me.

So ezManager does have some good points too ;-)

It would just be nice to have the option.

If you want to run EZ Manager Max under Windows 7, I posted this in another thread, but we now just use diasend:
From the discussion EZ Manager Windows 7 under Type 1 Diabetes Forum it was reported that the driver for the cable to make EZ Manager Max work under Windows 7 can be found at http://www.prolific.com.tw/eng/downloads.asp?ID=31. It is not supported by Animas, but when my daughter got a new laptop with Windows 7 installed, I installed EzManager Max on it with the new driver and I was able to download my son's pump data. Since it is not supported by Animas, you are on your own.
