oCycler - FTMS bike link: power & cadence

[oleksandr]

@Stavrogin The way SuuntoPlus SDK is imlemented is a little limiting in that regard, developers can record into the custom data fields, but can’t overwrite the standard .fit fields like power or cadence, therefore no, unfortunately the TSS is still calculated through based on HR, and the ftms collected data is simply recorded in the workout summary using the custom fields.

Saying that, I already reached the Suunto partners contact, asking whether there are any ways to bypass that limitation, as I would like to have the proper power based TSS calculations myself.

I’ll keep you guys posted

Maybe the power is just streamed using non-standard signature, please email me at the email listed in the app description. We can try to debug that and make a custom fix for your bike if it’s possible

Future update, altough probably delayed as I can’t access my SuuntoPartner account for some reason

@oleksandr One thing I failed to mention in my first post, I completed a full session of testing it and it recorded my speed, power, and cadence throughout the 1 hour ride but failed to record my distance (read 0 miles throughout and 0 in the workout summary). This is on my kickr bike V2. Is this a known bug/issue you’ve seen? Any fix for it?

[oleksandr]

@KSGravelJunkie I’ll probably require a fix tailored to your bike specifically. Drop me an email to the address provided in the app description

@KSGravelJunkie I ride virtually on MyWoosh on my KICKR and all metrics except the distance are recorded. I always have to edit the ride afterwards and add it manually from what I read in the application. But honestly I do not care as actually I did not move and especially if I do some interval training the speed and distance shown there make often not realy sense to me (ERG mode thing, I believe) It’s the Watts which I’m interested in mainly…

[KSGravelJunkie]

@johann.fuehrer Thanks for the feedback! Glad I’m not the only one.

@oleksandr do you need a fit file? maybe I can try again and email it to you?

[oleksandr]

@KSGravelJunkie I’ll need the specific protocol recording (the data that the bike streams in real time, email me and I’ll send the tutorial on how to record that

[oleksandr]

Hello guys, please welcome v2 with the new mode

The new power mode with color coded power, more actionable
And the classic one, that resembles the structure of the v1, but redesigned

Also the HR gauge is added to views

Hold down (bottom) button to switch between the modes

Hi,

I’m using oCycler with a Suunto Race and Zwift Hub.

During a 30-minute indoor cycling session, power, speed and cadence were all displayed correctly in real time.

However, after syncing with Suunto App, distance was 0.00 km and average cadence was incorrectly recorded as 1 rpm.

Power data was recorded correctly.

Could you please look into these issues?

Thanks!

@PacoHdez could you please send me the .fit file of that workout to the email specified in the app description?
