Garmin Fitness - Import from 910 XT Fail

[skygod]

I cannot get the data from the 910 XT unit to Garmin Fitness.
Is there any setting to enable this import?

It works:

• GF > 910 XT unit = OKAY
• GF > 305 unit = OKAY
• 305 unit > GF = OKAY
• 910 XT > GF = FAIL

When using Garmins' S/W "Training Center" all four cases above works fine.

First of all, sorry for the VERY late reply, I seem to have stopped receiving new post notifications event though everything seems properly configured... I'll try to get this figured out.

As far as I know, the Communuicator plugin doesn't allow this operation for the 910XT as for all other devices that use the ANT USB stick. One alternative I could never get anybody to confirm was to import using the ANT Agent Sync folder (see here for path)

I have tried to read the read the .FIT-files from 910 XT but Garmin Fitness displays an error message-box saying the file cannot be read.
- So it would be great if the GF also could be able to read these files.

I have had a look at the "transfer mechanism" of sending the files from the 910 XT to the PC:
- The Garmin Agent puts the files in the folder ...\workouts
- The unit (910 XT)) transfers the files if a workout is new or changed. So the unit keeps track of this internally.
- The synk seems to start within a minute after new/changed

The downside of this is that you will not be able to synk "older" workouts (without changing them). This is obvious if you have more then one PC or a new ST installation.

Hello,
Although the device does support this feature, the Communicator plugin reports otherwise which is annoying and I tried to get an explanation from Garmin without success. You can use the "From file" option to import your workouts however, I really have no other option at the moment but I am rethinking the file transfers for version 2.0.

Sorry fro the late reply.

[skygod]

Yes, but the file cannot be imported.
With "from file" i guess you mean:
C:\Users\[user]\AppData\Roaming\GARMIN\Devices\[id]\Workouts (XP etc might loog different)

When trying to import the message (like) "An error appeared when importing...".

One FIT-file for you to try is also in the previous fortum message.

Oh, I see. I'll check it out soon, that means once I get my new computer set up (the other gave up recently). I should get the parts tomorrow but chances are I'll be away for a couple of days afterwards as well as our child should see the day light in the upcoming days.

Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Version 1.1.485 should work with the 910XT. It can be foudn here and I'll make a new official version when I get FIT scheduling working.

It seems to work to import/export, but new problems I have not seen before:

- When working in the GF it stops, and the ST3 has to be restarted (tried to attach the dump file could not)
- The width of the step workout-edit area is too narrow, cannot see all fields.
- May this did not work before(?), the categories are not mapped.

So the info can be transferred but the plugin as now is, not usable... I am afraid.

I'm not having this problem at home, can you open the "Information" panel and post it's content please?

[skygod]

The width
After some more testing back and forth, the width of this step input area changed to normal(!).

The error
Maybe the error have something to do with the width problem? The error (app stop working) has not appeared after the width turned to normal.
This is the dump:

Actually it was the steps list that was craching for an unknown reason. The rest of the interface probably frozee becauseof the crash.

I'm glad everything is fixed, I'll post a new version when I get the scheduling working.
Thanks
