Suuntux

Suuntux is a simple script that allows to connect to Suunto X6HR watches, download chrono logs, and export them as CSV files, or as gnuplot scripts (so you can view them directly with gnuplot).

It is intended as a replacement for Suunto Activity Manager on platforms not supported by Suunto, like Linux.

Suuntux is released under GPLv3 or later.

Troubleshooting

in `flush': Input/output error - tcflush (Errno::EIO)

Are you using the correct serial port? Use suuntux -d /dev/ttyS1 to choose the second serial port, for example.

The watch never answers

It seems that sometimes, the watch puts itself in an unstable state. Resetting it by removing/readding the battery solves this.
