FIT to CSV from Fenix 7 generating most of unknown fields

Apart from a couple of fields like latitude, longitude, HRM, temp most of the other are unknown. I have also some missing definition like the 15 where every other line are missing info.

Could be an issue on SDK not yet updated for this new model ?

Many thanks

I believe during subsequent updates of the SDK messages and fields have been omitted.

For example the waypoints message is no longer defined in the profile.xls. It is used in the Edge830 though in Locations.fit

Deprecated?

I am looking for old versions of the SDK to get these obsolete definitions

The "unknown" fields and message definitions are not new or unique to the Fenix 7. Those same unknown values were present in files from earlier devices. At this time there are no plans to document the unknown values.

The question below about messages and fields being omitted in new SDKs was answered here.

Very disappointed.

I second that.

With so expensive watches, the added value compared to cheap 100€ sport watch is all the specifics data and it is too bad we don't have full description and documentation of theses fields

Is it allowed to publish reverse engineered data? Or is it proprietary, copyrighted, etc?
