-Test version of 405 download
-Needs lots of work!
+Code to pair with and download files from Garmin FR60 (and probably
+some other ANT-FS compatible devices, with some extra work).
-Usage:
-
-Put 405 in pairing mode
-./gant -f paul -a auth405
-
-This gives your garmin a name of "paul" and an auth file of "auth405"
-The 405 will ask you if you wish to pair with "paul". Obviously
-you might want to use a different name :)
+Based on gant by some Paul with unknown surname (paul@ant.sbrk.co.uk).
+I've tried getting hold on him to get things properly integrated,
+but alas. Thus this source code dump here; I'm sorry.
-Download with:
-./gant -nza auth405 > output
+Error handling is sort of lacking, and there's no incremental download,
+so you may have to try a few times.
-or -Dnza if you want lots of debug output
+Usage:
-It doesn't seem to be very reliable at starting the download and
-I haven't investigated why yet. So, if it doesn't start downloading
-press ctrl-c and try again. I find it helps to take the watch out
-of power save mode.
+Put the clock in pairing mode, and then:
+./fr60 -D
-If you've already downloaded the data, then you'll need to set
-"force send" to yes on the watch.
+It should exit, and then leave you with an authentication file in ~/.gant
+if you're lucky.
-Compare output with .TCX file produce by windows ANT Agent.
+Download with:
+./fr60 -Dvz
-Patch gant.c
-Send me patches!
+and it will give you .FIT files as they are stored on the watch.
+The format of these is documented other places (not the least in the some ANT
+SDK for it); I've used fitdump (which uses Garmin::FIT) which gives me the
+values I'm after, although it seems to be sort of buggy with regards to timing
+etc. You can get it at http://pub.ks-and-ks.ne.jp/cycling/fitdump.shtml.
-Paul
+Happy running :-)
