This software uses the Garmin ANT+ proprietary USB keys and communication protocol to retrieve information (such as GPS traces) from some Garmin Forerunner watches such as Forerunner 405 and 310XT.

The underlying ANT+minus implements the ANT/ANT+/ANT-FS protocols to provide these tools: garmin-ant-downloader, antpm-downloader, antpm-fit2gpx, and antpm-usbmon2ant.

ANT+minus is a userspace implementation of a wire protocol similar to the ANT/ANT+/ANT-FS protocols. The goal is to be able to communicate with any ANT capable device in order to e.g. retrieve sports tracks. The C++ implementation is currently available under both Linux and win. Communication with watches other than the 310XT might work, but are untested. Please report your experience to help improving the software.

The software was originally named "gant" but renamed when packaged to avoid confusion with existing Java software.

Works perfectly with a Forerunner 310XT. Follow the instructions at: 'https://github.com/ralovich/antpm/blob/master/docs/notes.txt'. The content for the file to put in /etc/udev/rules.d (line 9) can be found at 'https://github.com/GoldenCheetah/GoldenCheetah/wiki/ANT--and-BTLE-Troubleshooting'. Upload the .fits to Garmin Connect if required by using the 'Import' option on the Activities tab.
