Hello,
I've a bike computer SIGMA ROX 9.1 which can be connected via a small
USB docking station to retrieve the collected data.
However there is a proprietary software called "Data Center" (DaCe)
which is not available for Linux and doesn't run with Wine.
At least it doesn't find the connected device via com port in Wine.
I'd like to write my own software for Linux to collect the training data.
In Windows the Data Center (DaCe) software uses a virtual serial port
driver with "com3".
Now my problem is that I've no idea about the communication with the device.
I've tried to use some serial port sniffer. But this didn't work. If the
software sniffs the DaCe doesn't find the device. If the DaCe has
connected to the device, the sniffers denies to sniff on the serial
port. I've tried multiple sniffers without success.
Of course it is possible to sniff on USB with usbmon and wireshark.
But I've no idea how to go on with the collected jumble of data.
The Data Center is an Adobe AIR application.
In Windows the usbser.sys is used and Linux detects it as USB ACM device:

I've the 2 books
USB Complete - http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/1931448086
Serial Port Complete - http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/193144806X
where I can get more knowledge from ;-)
E.g. if I retrieve battery status of 4 units I currently get this data
05:33:64:50:64:41:50:01:00:02:10:40:17:70:04:01:01:06:32:32:32:1e:1e:50:55:55:55:5f:c0:33:21:33:21:96:12:89:53:20:90:49:17:96:09:00:37:15:56:21:10:12:21:42:75:00:28:36:07:00:21:04:79:19:50:06:be:69:86:98:be:00:01:00:02:00:03:95:24:82:17:74:20:23:10:65:37:00:15:17:23:20:32:38:00:30:16:27:00:07:29:05:00:01:15:13:00:02:10:01:00:11:47:21:79:04:40:75:93:67:04:00:55:62:75:01:05:70:37:95:29:03:00:39:03:02:27:13:00:40:20:0c:88:15:af:52:0a:04:02:62:61:5b:ac:a4:6c:03:11:1f:30:29:33:31:43:0f:04:43:be:20:d4:74:94:35
and the DaCe says the batteries of the 4 units (bike computer, chest
belt, speed transmitter and cadence transmitter) are fine.
But I don't see how to interpret the data.
So do you have any idea how to go on?
Thanks
Markus
