**** ALERT: SAVING SETTINGS WITH THE CONNECT IQ MOBILE APP IS AFFECTED BY A BUG IN THE GARMIN IQ SYSTEM. MAKE SURE THE TUBEWITCH DATA FIELD IS VISIBLE ON YOUR GARMIN DEVICE WHEN CHANGING SETTINGS. IF SETTINGS STILL DO NOT SAVE, TRY USING GARMIN EXPRESS. ****

 
Required: Use the Garmin Connect IQ mobile app or Garmin Express to enter SKS AIRSPY numeric sensor IDs and pressure targets in the TubeWitch settings. See screenshots and tips below.


 
Tips:
 ● Install TubeWitch, then reboot your Garmin device and restart the Garmin Connect IQ mobile app.
 ● On your Garmin device, add the TubeWitch Data Field to a data screen and LEAVE IT VISIBLE.
 ● In the Connect IQ mobile app, go to the TubeWitch settings and enter the numeric part (#####) of your sensor IDs. Find ID's printed on the bottom of the sensors or in the SKS mobile app.
 ● Enter the Low and High pressure target values in your selected pressure unit. ( PSI, kPa, or BAR)
 ● Rotate your wheels to wake up the sensors.
 ● During setup, you may see the message “Sensor uses an open connection.” This is normal and means the sensors do not send data using encryption.
 ● If data is not displayed after setup, reboot to trigger the messages again; they must be acknowledged before data can be received.
 ● To avoid conflicts, uninstall any other AIRSPY Data Fields, then reboot your Garmin.
 ● **** When changing settings with the Connect IQ app, TubeWitch MUST BE VISIBLE on your Garmin.
 ● **** Try using Garmin Express if the Connect IQ mobile app fails to save settings. ****


 
FAQs:
 ● What SKS products are supported? TubeWitch currently supports SKS AIRSPY sensors with ANT+ support.
 ● Is it accurate? Yes, TubeWitch displays pressure decoded directly from the SKS AIRSPY ANT+ broadcast.
 ● Why is a “?” shown next to pressure? The displayed reading is retained but stale because TubeWitch has not received a recent sensor broadcast.
 ● Why is an “X” shown next to pressure? During an activity, TubeWitch reached its configured Sensor Timeout and stopped searching for that position to conserve battery. Touch the data field to rescan on supported touch devices.
 ● Will it work with more than two sensors? Yes. Save up to five named bikes or wheel sets. Manually select the active sensor set, choose Auto to scan configured sets, or use Touch to Switch. Only one sensor set is displayed at a time.
 ● Can I mix and match SKS AIRSPY and TyreWiz or AIRMAX sensors? Yes, but you would need both versions of TubeWitch installed. Each sensor type would be contained to its own respective data field.
 ● Will it record tire-pressure data to the Garmin activity? Yes, when enabled in TubeWitch settings.
 ● Does the TubeWitch Data Field offer features that the SKS Data Field doesn't have?? Flexible layouts, labels, colors, per-sensor low/high targets, configurable alerts, stale-data indicators, FIT recording, five sensor sets, and more.
