With the TICKR being ant+, can I use it at the gym on Ant+ compatible treadmills, cycle stations, etc to see realtime HR data?

I'm guessing the answer is yes, even though I've never been to a gym with ANT+ equipment. Only because I've got a Garmin GPS watch which is ANT+ for its wireless protocol and it works just fine.

I cannot get my TICKR to pair to the treadmills at my gym either. Unless theres a solution I'm sending mine back.

I currently use it with my Strava app with Bluetooth at the same time I am running Ant+ with my MapMyRide app. The data has been consistent and reliable using Ant+ with while road cycling and Trainer cycling. I am not sure if compatible with gym machines. I hope this helps.

I've not been able to get my TICKR to link up with the Schwinn ANT+ cycle computer's they have at my gym. How do you go about getting this to work?

Yes, it works with all ANT+ devices. The 310xt will read this Garmin ANT+ speed cadence sensor and any other ANT+ speed/cadence sensor. Good luck!

Negative. The watch already has a heart rate monitor. You can display real time info when using the exercise function.

No. It just logs the data and you can see it in graph form after you upload it. You need a HRM watch to see your heart rate as you exercise. Here's a link to a wide range of HRM's... http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_c_0_24?url=search-alias%3Dsporting&field-keywords;=omron%20heart%20rate%20monitor. You can get a good one for $35 (Omron). If you want GPS or more workout information then you pay more for a Garmin or Polar (or similar) unit.

I can't answer that question specifically, but it works just fine with my Garmin 910 which is an ANT+ device. No problem configuring it - I simply told the 910 to search for ANT+ HRMs, it found the Motorola HRM straight away, I paired them up and have had no issues whatsoever since then

It depends on what devices you're going to be using. Garmin's cadence/speed sensors, and heart rate straps use ANT+, and seem to be the most common. If that's the case, this is what you'll need to pair your computer to the ANT+ devices, and allow you to use them with Trainer Road. It's also possible that the sensors you're going to be using are capable of Bluetooth Smart (BT 4.0). If that's the case, your computer may already be equipped to handle them. Wahoo Fitness makes cadence/speed, and heart rate sensors that are both ANT+ and Bluetooth 4.0 compatible. For more info, check out Trainer Road's "Getting Started" page.

I do inside runners on treadmill using my 920XT without foot pod and works quite good (I don't know what black magic garmin did to make it works). Maybe something with new HR3 and my previous run behaviour/style on GPS recorded tracks.

Sort of. I turn on the treadmill mode to track my heart rate, but I question how accurate the calorie count is. Also, the treadmill mode will think you are on the treadmill, so you would have to discard/ignore those metrics. When I log into the third party software fitness tracker "map my fitness" and put in the time spent weightlifting, it will automatically approximate my calories. A couple of side notes. Tomtom says that sometime in July they are adding a "generic" activity to monitor activities other than run, bike and swim--but they have not done so to date. However, for the time being, when I do a gym workout in treadmill mode, I then select training option "laps" and then select "manual". This way, after every set, I tap my watch to reset the lap timer to help me monitor the rest time between each set. So I track my heart rate, total time, and time between sets.

No. I recommend you get the RFLKT plus. It is small, attached to your bike and will sync your speed/cadence, HR, Power and any other sensors you have through ANT+ or Bluetooth.

depends on which android phone you have. you need the hardware, it is not a software issue. This HR monitor uses the ANT+ communication protocol. if your phone has an ANT+ receiver then you are good. the Galaxy S3 and S4 have the ANT+ receiver.

I have not tried with indoor bikes but it is the same as any other ant+ hrm and should work.
929184
This isn't something I've done, but you shouldn't have any trouble: ANT+ is a wireless communication standard. Everyone who puts ANT+ is supposed to be in compliance with the standard. Good luck.

You need a device that receives ANT+ signals such as a Garmin heart rate monitor or some gym exercise equipment. There may be an iPhone app that sees the output from the device. I haven't checked into that.

I bought a compatible Ant+ cadence sensor that works fine. It doesn't have to be the same brand. Ant+ is a standard.

What are you trying to do with it? I have an Edge 500 but I don't use it at all with the ANT stick. The ANT stick turns your computer into a receiver of data from your bike (on a trainer assumedly). I signed up with Trainer Road and got a speed cadence sensor. The ANT stick just picks up the signal and Trainer Road processes the data on my computer....not sure if that helps you...

It depends on the ANT+ Head unit you are using .. If its something like a Garmin 810/1000 yes, it provides data in the native measurements you are using .. (there's more than just weight that comes out) The scale itself has no display .. you *must* connect it to a display via ANT+ wireless radio

If the specific Indoor Bike has an Ant+ compatible speed sensor then yes. Otherwise your speed and distance will always be zero as the unit relies on GPS to calculate speed and distance.
