I am using one. To get the data out of it, I'm using software that was originally named "gant" written by "p...@ant.sbrk.co.uk" (you can easily find its source by googling for it). Klaus Ethgen <kl...@ethgen.de> improved it and we packaged it for Debian (and as a consequence Ubuntu) under the same "garmin-ant-downloader". Downloading is sometimes kinda difficult : the file transfer oftens aborts before completing, etc. Indeed the protocol has been mostly reverse engineered as it wasn't documented. Tollef Fog Heen (another Debian developer) worked on a new version of software to download data from ANT+ devices. He mentioned it to me last year, but my attempts to use it with my 405 ANT+ stick anways failed...while using garmin-ant-downloader works more or less. You can get garmin-ant-downloader sources at http://www.ethgen.ch/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=gant.git. Original sources by "paul" are at git://get-open.com/gant. You can also get the Debia source package by using "apt-get source garmin-ant-downloader" on a Debian and, I guess, Ubuntu system. I currently have no reference for Tollef's sources. Tollef can be easily joined at tfh...@debian.org (yeah, many Debian dudes are runners, indeed!). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
