reading the raw data of a fitfile

4900661 11 days ago

I have a fitfile containing power data recorded at 200hz I can open these files and and read the raw 200hz data using the manufacturer software. Is there any way to do this using the python SDK.

Thanks in advance

A custom defined message is probably being used to store the 200 Hz power data. The Python SDK will return the messages, but the message name will be the message number and the field names will be the field numbers. Inspect the message dictionary for a key that is a number greater than or equal to the min manufacturer message value of 0xFF00. There will be either one message per sample, or a message with an array of values.

You can also use the FIT CSV Tool to convert the file to see how the data is being stored.
