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'm considering writing a tool to do this. Any more details on how exactly you did it would be great to help get me started. Could you also post that csv?
Thanks!
I'm a bit late and you figure out how to do it :)
What do you finally used to code it ? Tell me If u need help.
Look in the same directory where the .csv was created for a .log file. That should have some info detailing why it wasn't able to create your .fit file. Do you have java installed? That's the most likely culprit. Java is required to create the .fit.
Hi, another user with the issue. I am unable to get it to produce a fit file, it will only do a .csv. no mater what options i select (fit/connect or lb/kb) I've tried all combinations, I've deleted the config file, I ran as administrator. I have latest java (update 24). let me know if you need any info from me or my system to help you troubleshoot.
I have been working on a similar app that generates the fit data directly without using the java tools.
So far I am only generating the weight data and the percent of body fat field, as my scale only generates these numbers. I am using the withings scale and I have an older tanita scale that only generates these two pieces of data.
The file workes correctly. I'll be posting a link to the program soon if anyone is interested.
The other app in this post works fine already, but I wanted to see if I could write my own app and eventully build a version for my mac. (Thats a long way off at this point)
