It can be used for a complete offline solution of downloading FIT files for use with programs such as ActivityLog2 or GoldenCheetah, without the need to attach the USB charging cradle to a laptop or having to download them from a web service. This works as follows: The Raspberry Pi is connected to the local home network USB charging cradle is connected to a USB port on the Raspberry Pi When a Garmin Device is connected to the cradle for charging, all the FIT files are copied off the device onto a local folder. At the same time, updated EPO data (for GPS quick sync) is copied onto the device. The downloaded FIT files are shared over a network folder on the local network On the laptop, the FIT files show up on a network drive and can be imported into ActivityLog2 or GoldenCheetah. There is also support for downloading files using an ANT-FS USB stick, for older Garmin Devices that use this method. In that case the download is initiated when the device comes in range of the Raspberry PI. Installation an Setup Setup network shares on the Raspberry PI We will create two network shares. A \"FitFiles\" read-only share accessible with the \"pi\" user and your password. FIT files will become available on that share. Another share, \"PiDropbox\" is a read-write share, that can be used to transfer files onto the Raspberry PI (it is mapped to the Dropbox fo","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/alex-hhh","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/alex-hhh/PiFitSync/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
