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.
You could also consider to visit the sponsor page

I guess you have a genius.
FortiusAnt must be started with the -t genius flag as described in the manual.

FortiusAnt uses one dongle; connecting to the genius and transmitting standard trainer protocol at the other side (converting the signals).
Zwift (using a second dongle / or on another system) receives the ANT signal and communicates through ForiusAnt with the genius.

Suces.

Hey mate what do I do if I don't have a second ant+ dongle

[WouterJD]

Every application needs its own dongle.
If you do not have one, buy one.

Alternative: use another system with an ANT-interface, thus realizing the second dongle.

[WouterJD]

You wanna have it closed?

[albon4]

no

[albon4]

Sorry i dont really understand github but i have a question do i need two dongles(ant+)

[albon4]

[albon4]

Does this work sir?

[WouterJD]

Usually ant ANT dongle works, only the cycplus dongle are know for issues, as documented.

You can start with one dongle to validate the trainer and the interface, using the simulation and manual modes.

Note that I do not have a genius nor ever had, so some experimenting is to be done.

How did you start FortiusAnt?
Now use the settings wheel and sect genius as tacx type and retry.

FortiusAnt is not build to detect all possible tacx types, therefore you must tell what type to look for

[albon4]

okay that worked but all i need now is a another ant+ right???

[albon4]

or is there an alternative?

[WouterJD]

Hey sounds good, please share picture.
Yes, if this the case, a 2nd dongle allows Zwift to run on the same computer, assuming it has enough power

Okay what do u want picture of, i'm guessing the ant+ i'm ordering?

[WouterJD]

No, I believe that.

Your configuration + your setup, if you like.

[albon4]

[WouterJD]

How are things proceeding?

[WouterJD]

Since there is no communication here, I assume can be closed.
If not happy to reopen
