@laurenshaijma
Welcome to the FortiusANT community

---

I'm always curious to know who I communicate with, where FortiusANT is used and what configuration is used.
Please tell me what bundle did you buy, and what brake and what head unit do you use?
I would therefore appreciate that you introduce yourself; perhaps leave a comment under issue #14.

Locate HW is disabled because it's already done and trainer and ANT-dongle found
How did you start FortiusANT (what parameters)
It looks like you did a runoff; that's OK.

Now press Start to activate the program.

Hey Wouter, I'm The guy harrasing you on messengerLaurens Haijma from Stiens just above Leeuwarden dont know what you mean  by what bundelI bought a tacx fortius T1941 (it sais on motor/brake)T1941.50 (it sais on the box attached to the motor/brake)and the head unit sais T1932 I started FortiusANT.exe the windows executable just double click the .exeIm running windows 10 then do the runoff and after that kick pedal to calibratein the screen it sais CYCPLUS ( you told me could give problems but someone on GIT said this one would work I even checked ID nr. and it was the same as that of him (revering to "totalreverse" on your git) when I turned heartrate on zwift found itbut what do I connect to zwift there are speed, cadense, and I think it was 2 other options which do I need to connect? oke I hope you have enough info with thisI'll try again tonight see if I can connect.... regards,Laurens Haijma

Voorlopig doet de ANT-dongle het.

Je kunt Zwift aansluiten de het FE-C device 57591:

FortiusAnt broadcasts the following devices
57591 FE-C Controllable Fitness equipment
57592 HRM Heartrate monitor (optional, according -H parameter)
57595 SCS Speed/cadense sensor
57596 PWR Power monitor

In fact, only the FE-C (57591) is required. SCS and PWR are implemented so you can attach a Garmin Edge on your bike, it should not be required by Zwift. If you use an ANT+ heart rate monitor, Zwift will connect to that and the FortiusAnt HRM is not required.

when I press start it keeps saying calibrating do not pedal! but you say press start and connect to zwift
I don't get it

after that start zwift and get into

this screen
I kind of assumed that I have to press

this button but it wont find anything

you say:"Je kunt Zwift aansluiten de het FE-C device 57591:" but I don't know what it means
can anyone help?

It looks like proceeding normally:

• YOu give a pedal kick
• The trainer starts to run and returns a low resistance (Speed=20.0 TargetRes=2227 CurrentRes=-26)
• When the resistance is stable, the trainer is stopped at 21:28:31,811

At the first command sent to the ANT-dongle, an error occurs
21:28:31,811: AntDongle.Write exception (message lost): [Errno None] b'libusb0-dll:err [submit_async] submitting request failed, win error: The device does not recognize the command.\r\n'
21:28:31,814: devAntDongle.read exception: [Errno None] b'libusb0-dll:err [submit_async] submitting request failed, win error: The device does not recognize the command.\r\n'
21:28:31,814: ANT Dongle not available; try to reconnect after 1 second

21:28:33,366: GetDongle - Check for an ANT+ reply
21:28:33,367: GetDongle() returns: Using CYCPLUS dongle
21:28:33,367: ANT Dongle reconnected, application restarts

Because of the restart, the calibration is done again (although that is not necessary)
|* * * * G I V E A P E D A L K I C K T O S T A R T C A L I B R A T I O N * * * *
The Speed=20.0 TargetRes=2219 CurrentRes=-10 is received
|* * * * C A L I B R A T I N G (Do not pedal) * * * *
For some reason Speed=0.0 TargetRes=2228 CurrentRes=0 is given as if the calibration stopped

Could you please describe what exactly happens during this test-cycle?

• What do you do
• What does the trainer do

[laurenshaijma]

My bike is on the trainer next to me, I'm behind the laptop.
when asked give pedal a kick I give it a kick, the wheel starts rotating
then the trainer takes over the wheel runs for it self for a while while I wait
after a while it stops rotating the wheel slows down ant stops
text of calibrating changes from calibrating to connected to for a second and then changes to calibrating dont pedal again
but wheel doesnt rotate unless i kick it again.

[WouterJD]

That is equal to what I saw in the logfile.
Try to run without calibration (specify -n option on command line) and see what happens.

You are investigating two issues:

• the ANTdongle giving issues
• the second calibration loop receives info from the previous loop, therefore displaying "do not pedal"

Trying without calibration avoids this, let's see first whether you get the ANT-interface working

[WouterJD]

Apparently working
