ANT Forum

Hello,

with ANT+ I want to read out sensors values such as heart rate sensor and temperature sensor out of e.g. an Garmin Vivoactive 4 etc. I experimented with SimulANT+ and two ANT+-m USB Sticks and can display data from simulated sensors. In Channel Parameters i have to set up a Device Number, Device Type and a Transmission Type. My question now is, i don't know this IDs from my Garmin Watch so how can I dispay these values?



     

Hello haighi,

thanks for your answer! I managed to get the HR out of my Garmin watch and received it on a Raspberry Pi. So the Watch ist broadcasting as you described it in your post. Is there a chance to request sensor data e.g. the temperature over ANT+ because the watch isn't boradcasting this values as you said?      

Hi haighi,
do you know if its possible to get the Gamin .fit files (which includes my sensor data) out of my watch using ANT FS? I tried with the openant python library but no connection to my watch. i know the fifoactive 4 is not avaiable in the compliant ANT-FS Devices listed there (https://github.com/Tigge/openant) but maybe its possible though.
