I am writing a java program to decode a Garmin FIT file and was attempting to use the GyroscopeDataMesg.java method getCalibratedGyroX(), which is supposed to return a Float with units of deg/sec. I expected the method to perform the calculation to determine the calibrated data from the raw ADC values that are in the FIT file, but instead it returned "null". Eventually I discovered the method getNumCalibratedGyroX(), which returns 0, showing that there are no calibrated values. Am I correct in concluding that the methods only return data that is presently in the FIT file and do not perform any calculations on data in the file? I am able to obtain the raw ADC values from the file into an Integer array using getGyroX().      

You are correct the FIT SDK on its own will only return values that are included in the .FIT file. There is a plugin and example included in the SDK for dealing with 3D Sensor data.

Checkout the file: FitSDKRelease_20.27.00\java\com\garmin\fit\plugins\examples\ThreeDSensorAdjustmentExample.java in the SDK for an example of how to use the plugin.      

Caufield,

Thanks so much for the reply, this was very helpful.
