It would be useful to be able to manually enter all the measures under Health on Garmin connect. At present the majority of them are only accessible if you have particular Tanita scales.
I'd like to have:
- direct upload from bc-1000 to garmin connect (without a watch)
- manual entry of all the data
- delete-button for weight information
For all those clamoring for manual input keep in mind this other Health problem that Garmin needs to address first, that us (few it seems) BC1000 users have. Once data is entered it's 100% permanent and can't be deleted or edited. So make a mistake and you are stuck for life. Garmin's solution: delete your entire account and start over.:rolleyes:
This must be a first to have a program that uses data input from a user to carefully track/monitor specific criteria but doesn't allow the users to edit/delete mistakes. Does this make any sense?:confused:
I'd also like to see the other health measures unlocked for manual entry. Having spent good money on both a garmin gps watch and tanita scales it doesn't seem too much to ask for something that on the face of it seems simple to implement.
It would be good to get an update on whether this is going to happen.
It is possible to enter all values manually by building & uploading a FIT file using the Java tool provided with the FIT SDK.
Working great :D
It's a bit boring to do, maybe I will make a tool do this automatically when I'll have more time.
I can explain how to do this if sombody is interested.
Can you use this to overwrite an existing set of measurements by changing the the date and/or use to edit existing measurements too? Would you please try and find time (you can skip Thanksgiving meal and work on it :D) to write this. It's obvios Garmin isn't going to do anything any time soon. I would be willing to pledge PayPal $5 or so for this.

You can manually copy the datas and correct them, delete measurements in "connect" (new feature), and upload a FIT file with the corrected points. A bit boring so ;)
The way to do the FIT file consist of editing a CSV file and convert it to FIT using the jar provided with FIT SDK, you just need Java to run the jar file. I can give you the CSV file to do that.
If you do not understand a word of this previous statement, you can wait I (or somebody else) write a tool, but I can't give you any deadline because I'm quite busy now (there no Thanksgiving in France :D).
