New datafield that can read from a custom ANT+ sensor

trigeeky over 4 years ago

Hello, I am a newbie Garmin developer. I have a custom ANT+/BLE sensor and I'd like to achieve 2 things:

1. Display the value reported by the sensor in a custom datafield

2. Store the readings in the FIT file of the activity (typically running)

Can someone point me code examples to do this?

Thank you!

The MoxyField sample in the SDK is a data field that talks to an ANT sensor (Moxy) and saves data in the .fit for the activity,

The NordicThingy52CoinColector sample is a data field that talks to a BLE sensor (Thingy52) that plays a sound on the Thing52 every 2 seconds, but can be changed with a different service/characteristic to read something like the temperature,
