Export .Fit file from Suunto App to PC for use in Firstbeat Athlete
-
@Albert-Willem-Knop sure I can take a look and perhaps help here. Just dropbox and pm me.
-
Sounds good. I have uploaded them to my dropbox but how can I arrange that you can see/read them?
-
Maybe we should stop for today and resume next week. Thanks for your help so far and have a great weekend.
-
@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos Can we pick this up again? How can I arrange that you can see those 2 .fit files originating from the same session but made by Movescount and Suunto App respectively?
-
Will be investigating this but here is why this is happening now for 3 years already to “most” garmins
-
@Albert-Willem-Knop I have the same situation, using Movescount for FA. I tried downloading a FIT file with your programme Quantified Self, and it was successful, however, the R-R error above occurred. I use a Suunto Ambit3 Peak.
-
Yes that is correct. Suunto app QS use the new FIT protocol.
I wonder: Does FB ahtlete accept some csv format for RR ? Any other format?
-
@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos I am using a Suunto 9.
-
@Albert-Willem-Knop understood.
But does FB athelete accept any other format for your data ?
-
@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos When FA is loading a file, it looks for files with the following extensions: sdf, hrm, rrm, bms, dat, csv, ste, txt, sbe, fit. I doubt whether all these types can provide all the information FA needs to calculate EPOC and PTE. These two values are the most important to me, as they are used to set up my training program for the coming days.
-
@Albert-Willem-Knop isn’t those the RR data?
Can you try this file ? https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1QKs-iSQBpM4pUV1BV1psahF_ygZlomRB1jzMCFY0MfY/edit?usp=sharing

@dimitrios-kanellopoulos The problem is solved. I ran the .FIT file produced by the Suunto App through Fit File Repair Tool (https://www.fitfilerepairtool.info/) . When I used this tool a few months ago it failed to produce a file that could be used in Firstbeat Athlete. I ran it again today (after re-installing Fit File Repare Tool and MS Access) and now I got a good result. I am not sure whether the problem was in the software I installed, in a mistake from me or in a flaw in the .FIT file produced by the Suunto App in October. Anyway, it is a bit more work to get the information from the Suunto App to Firstbeat Athlete, but it works now. Thanks for all you help.
