Summary: Polar ProTrainer 5: IRDA connection to heart rate monitor does not work Product: Wine Version: 1.1.26 Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: mikko.ronkko@iki.fi
I have installed Polar ProTrainer 5 software version 5.20.130 and attached a USB IrDA dongle from Polar to use with my Polar RS800 heart rate monitor. After installing the dongle and verifying that it can see my heart rate monitor using irdadump, I tried to connect the software and the heart rate monitor. I configured the softaware to use IrDA connection from Options->Preferences->Hardware. (Other options are USB and COM1-COM9) Then I try to transfer data from the heart rate monitor using Tools->Transfer Data. A popup window appears saying "Reading Settings..." and disappears after a while. No data is transferred and no error message is given by the software. The next time I try to connect to the heart rate monitor from the software, I get an error message saying "Communication port couldn't be opened." The next time I try the transfer, I get the right dialog but no data transfer and after that again the error message.
When I used irdadump to test the USB dongle, the red led inside flashed when it was transmitting data. When I try to connect from the software, I do not see this light.
