Description
The CABLE (Convert ANT to BLE) is a revolutionary stand alone device which converts ANT+ sensor products into industry standard Bluetooth Smart connections.
The ANT+ data is then available in any application capable of consuming Bluetooth Smart profile data for:
• Heart Rate
• Bike Power (All Types)
• Bike Speed & Cadence
• Running Speed & Cadence
• Fitness Equipment (Bike Trainer, Treadmill, Rower, Climber, Cross, Trainer)
Full control of a FE-C enabled ANT+ trainer via BLE FTMS (Fitness Machine Service) supported apps.
This is the only stand-alone ANT+ to Bluetooth Smart converter on the market.
The CABLE also operates as a security device when attached to an object. When the security mode is enabled your phone will alert you if someone moves the object. Perfect for the coffee rides with your friends.

1.3.1
2021-11-12
CABLE FW v2.2.4 included!!!
We have heard from some of you that your control of your trainers has gone away. It seems the CABLE took the summer off from the indoor trainer just like you did. Well, the FW update for CABLE included in this release will bring that life back into your device.
We have also heard from some of you that your trainer has the app continually interested in performing a spin-down. We have grown tired of that as well so we have convinced the app to only let you know once.
Some users have told us that their Schwinn bikes indicate they are still pedaling when they are coasting. This update to CABLE will help to get your avatar in Zwift to match what you are actually doing in your basement.
If you have not heard, XERT has recently announced full integration with the CABLE for sensor management to include the Garmin Bike Radar. This is the first bike console app to fully integrate the CABLE for bringing ANT+ sensors into the smart phone platforms. This FW update will allow full support for the XERT implementation.

• Fix for ANT+ Wheel Torque decode to address speed reporting issue on some devices
• Fix for delay in FTMS/FE-C communications when using CABLE with a controllable trainer
• Fix for occasional data dropouts. Users should monitor the status of the LED on the CABLE to see if it changes from green to red when their data seems to get stuck or drops out. If the CABLE is flashing red, it means the ANT device has lost tracking and is scanning for the sensor.

CABLE Config Application
Application will now restore the saved configuration values when the firmware is updated.
CABLE Firmware Update 1.8.3
•FTMS (Bluetooth Fitness Machine Service). i.e. It works with Zwift
-Treadmill correction to work properly with Zwift
-Corrected Treadmill Instantaneous Speed Conversion
-Corrected Indoor Bike Instantaneous Speed Conversion
-Implemented Rower ANT+ Fitness Equipment Profile to Rower Bluetooth Fitness Machine support (Kinomap is supporting this Bluetooth Service now!!!)
•FE Rower Support
-Some customers requested a special consideration for converting Rower FE stroke rate data to bike cadence. They pointed out they use Zwift with their rower. The challenge is the stroke rate needs to be multiplied by 3.3 to get an equivalent bike cadence to work properly with Zwift. As a result we perform a special conversion when translating Rower specific stroke rate to cadence in CPS and CSCS so you can row at a similar rate as the bikes. We did not touch power so you cannot get a higher power number than your console is showing you. There was no change made for the FE -> FTMS rower support, so once apps start to use the FTMS Rower there should be no issue with conversion.
•Motion Detection
- Improved motion sensitivity

Blue awesomeness,
I had problems too
When I first bought the Cable device it worked great. After an update and trying to add a cadence sensor I had problems getting anything to work. After several emails back and forth my issue has been resolved with specific instructions and an update. All good now.
OMMD,
Convenient solution for a protracted problem
This device and its app fill a glaring gap for a specific group of people.
In my case most of my fitness sensors are ANT+ and with Zwift Bluetooth connectivity was needed in limited scenarios. I usually use Zwift with ANT+ on my MacBook so no need there. But for apps like Rouvy on the iPad or when I use my Apple TV or when I run at the gym this app and device helped me to continue to use the sensors I like.
With 2 profiles one for cycling and another for running it solved my issues. I purchased a Wahoo HR for BT broadcast but I never liked the comfort of the device. I always preferred Garmin. Garmin now has dual HR but I don’t need to buy that.
I connect my Vector 2, my HR and my foot pod to it.

Havericks02,
Works fantastic!
I use Garmin HR strap and an ipad pro for zwift, the CABLE adapter works seamlessly for me, no problems, just better experience on zwift. Needed new battery out of box, after that it has worked with no issues. Detailed instructions & good support!
James Spahr,
I can’t work this anymore
What did you do to this software? The version from the spring was rough and a bit painful to use, but I was able to get my cadence and heart rate Ant+ sensors to rebroadcast in Bluetooth. This new version is overly complicated and I can’t figure out how to use it.
Right now I have cadence, power, and heart rate broadcasting as zero on Bluetooth. The app constantly wants to refresh from the device and forgets state every time it does.
I give up. This is unusable.

DNSacks,
Works fine for me
Using with Zwift on iPad, lets me and my wife each use our ant+ sensors with iPad - relatively easy to set up / switch between users too.
geodavis,
Seemless - right on!
Cable, Zwift, Apple TV and my Kickr work really well together. I log into Zwift in my Apple TV and my HR, cadence and Kickr are instantly recognized. I’m nearly nstantly riding each time. Cable gets kudos.
gnewton70,
Used to work great- now unusable.
This software basically broke due to the latest iOS update. Worked fine under iOS 11, but now under iOS 12 it continually tries to refresh the connection to the device, and resets all the parameters. Device is now useless. Not happy.
todd haf,
Frustrating
App sits and flashes and cycles through screens in my iphone... doesn’t do anything more....
Meelow22,
App crashes on startup, iOS 16.1.1
Useless in this state… needs update.
WebberJeff,
Used to work... now junk
Drops mid ride now.
