Polar Ignite

Opened this issue · 7 comments

Hi Roscoe, I'm wondering if you're still doing any work on this. I bought a polar ignite model, and unfortunately loophole doesn't seem to want to connect. If you have any thoughts on what I might try, I'd appreciate it very, very much.

What are the error messages? I did not test it with Polar Ignite.

Hi rsc-dev, sorry about the delay in responding! it is saying that no devices are detected. I'm wondering if there is a different protocol buffer file for the ignite.

To be honest it might be very difficult to tell why it does not work. I do not have Ignite, so I cannot debug communication.

Hello @rsc-dev, how did you do the debugging for the other devices?

Hi rsc.dev, I found this comment on another polar github project (using Ruby rather than python) "Polar has changed the USB interface from HID to CDC ACM. I guess you can talk to the newer Polar watches on /dev/ttyACM0 instead (serial port for the device)" I'm wondering this is applicable to loophole,, and if so, what would be involved to make the switch. Thanks!!!

Is that from cmaion?

Yep, still on the hunt for a way to get the data off my polar ignite!
