I created my own Icon and put my watch on the table near the computer, click the icon and the data is saved as a. I'm a Ubuntu Freak and have been using Linux to upload for a while.
#Garmin ant agent Bluetooth
It syncs automatically via bluetooth to your phone right up to the internet to be used anywhere. Just look at the incredibly small Fitbit One. Since I won't be using it I gave up trying to understand how the Sportablet works right about when I got to the point where they recommended using a Suunto Movestick because it works better with my Garmin watch than the ANT stick that came with it! And that's a big part the problem. It looks like they are trying to bridge a gap that Garmin has created by steadfastly sticking with it's ANT stick and not actively supporting many of the devices people are actually using. Kudos for getting that to work but it seems overly complicated for the average user.
The application mentioned above works great! If I run in the morning before work, then I just use my work Windows computer to upload. So, when at home I always upload my data via my phone. I use Linux at home and there is no ANT driver, so I would have to bring up VirtualBox and then an old WinXP just so I could upload my Garmin data. I'll do it while waiting at the airport to come home. That is how I expect to upload my Garmin data after the Shamrock Marathon in another 10 days or so.

Probably by a company that will be eating Garmin's lunch.Īctually I often upload my data from my Garmin to my Android (Samsung Galaxy S3) and on to Garmin Connect (and Running Ahead) using a connector and a USB2 (or USB+) ANT stick using the Garmin Uploader from Sportablet. Imagine automagically uploading runs to RA from your smartphone via bluetooth direct from your watch as soon as you finish! Why doesn't Garmin ditch ANT for a standard that is integrated into most current hardware? How about the Tooth of Blue or even the WiFi? That would be fantastic. Eric said the ANT sticks have a problem with too much noise. My ANT stick only works with one usb port on my laptop, not the other. I can't answer your question but I'm not going to pass up the opportunity to rant.

So maybe you need to find it manually in the Device Manager and load the driver when it is plugged directly into the computer.
#Garmin ant agent install
So, actually - the only problem is currently that Windows 8 does not correctly recognize the Ant stick when it is inserted and does not therefore automatically start the driver install process. The garmin communicator plugin also installed without worries. I re-inserted the Ant stick, set the Forerunner in pairing mode, and so there! My workout is now being transferred to Garmin connect. > done - "the device is working properly".Īfter this, I removed the ant stick, and went and downloaded the Garmin Ant Agent, which installed Ok. right click, and "search for the driver in internet" Then, I decided to have a look at the device manager, to see if the stick is there. I googled around for some help without success. After sticking in the USB Ant stick today, nothing happened. I upgraded my laptop yesterday, and switched to Windows 8 also. I'm not sure exactly what I did to get it to work, but this message from the garmin forums got me started enough to play around and get it working. You can transfer your data directly to Garmin Connect™ (a web-based community of Garmin users who track, explore and share activities) or Garmin Training Center (software to analyze activities and create workouts).I did have some trouble with getting the ANT agent to work on a new Windows 8 laptop. Plug the ANT Stick into your computer's USB port and it will automatically receive your activity data when your compatible fitness device is within range.
