    Tempe app 1.2 version

    Hi,

    Tempe_FR920XT.prg doesn't work : see the attached file

    back to 1.0 version : please send me 1.2 version

    Thanks


    Hi,

    Nobody has tempe app 1.2 version (included negative temperatures)?

    Thanks.
  • Grabbed some code I had from my watch faces, and other code from stuff that uses sensors, and threw together a simple watch-app for the vivoactive, that kind of looks like a watchface, but with the temperature.

    Based on what nikeow said about Tempe data coming through on the vivoactive, this should work once I get a Tempe - it's on order (I'm simulating sensor data with the simulator here)

    And as it knows time, it can easily track 24min and 24max.... But I'm not sure how useful that would be, as over 24, I could be moving from AC, to heated space, to open air..

  • The user I had just wanted the Tempe to be used. (since it's available)
    So, he verified that it in fact is working.

    as for the 24hr question.. watchapp or watch face etc i do not think would track (internally) 24hour values. I believe it's tracked internally via the Tempe and then spit out as data output

    On the va, there are standard datafields for both min and max, so the watch knows them frome the Tempe. It's just that we can't see them in CIQ! :(

    But I could guess at them if needed!

    You can get to the max and min values if you use a Generic ANT channel--that's how our Tempe app does it right now.

    But based on this thread, the Tempe app isn't working that well.... :(

    Tempe app 1.2

    Thanks, the log file helped a lot.
    I saw that you received a channel closed (MSG_CODE_EVENT_CHANNEL_CLOSED) event. I think in cause i used GenericChannel.close(); when restarting the sensor. I removed the close() call and used only the release() followed with an init(), setConfig() and open() call when restarting the sensor.

    Can you please test the attached version?

    Thanks a lot,
    Daniel


    For Daniel.ConnectIQ and Brandon.ConnectIQ

    On my FR920XT, I've tried tempe app 1.4 and your attached file (Tempe_FR920XT.prg) versions : always the same issue; "searching for the tempe" displays without finding temperatures.
    With 1.0 and 1.2 versions, no issues : I repeat again, could you please give me back tempe app 1.2 version (included negative temperatures)(.prg)?

    Thank you for your understanding.
  • GFX401AA:

    Daniel is out of the office at the moment, and I don't have immediate access to the 1.2 version of the app. I'll see if I can get my hands on it and send it your way.
  • Ok, I'm guessing that the Garmin Tempe App is really a means to test the Ant+ interface in CIQ.

    I have a vivoactive, where the Tempe is a standard system sensor. I got my Tempe today. Set it up in system settings, and the fired up the watch app I showed in an earlier post. Within a minute, I was seeing the current temp. (seems the Tempe only transmits every minute or so).

    I also added "SENSOR_TEMPERATURE" to one of my custom apps, and not only can I see the temp while the app is running, but when the FIT file is uploaded to Garmin Connect, I now have a chart of the temperature during that activity ("SPORTS_HIKING" in this case). With standard apps, I can see the data from the Tempe if I select those standard data fields.

    It seems the proper way to support the Tempe is to make it a standard sensor in firmware, as it is on the VA. Seems it's not on the 920...

    But what about the F3 and Epix? What devices have the Tempe as a standard Sensor?

    I believe the Forerunner 920XT is the only ConnectIQ device that does not support the Tempe sensor in the native device firmware.
