+	HOWTO USE garmin-ant-downloader
+
+1. plugin your ANT+ stick
+2. the system will load the kernel module "cp210x"
+3. to find out what ttyUSB device is used run
+
+   # dmesg|grep "cp210x converter"
+   [...] cp210x 3-1:1.0: cp210x converter detected
+   [...] usb 3-1: cp210x converter now attached to ttyUSB3
+
+   In this case you have to use the optione "-d 3". If it is
+   ttyUSB0 then you don't need the -d option because 0 is the
+   default
+4. put the watch into paring mode (menu -> configuration -> ANT+ ->
+   computer -> pairing on)
+5. pair the computer with the watch ("mywatch" as name for the watch and
+   the file "auth405" as an authorization file which will be created)
+
+   # garmin-ant-downloader -d 3 -f mywatch -a auth405
+
+6. download saved tracks from the watch
+
+   # garmin-ant-downloader -d 3 -f mywatch -nza auth405
+
+
+You get the possible options with
+
+   # garmin-ant-downloader -h
+
+To convert the downloaded TCX file (e.g. 2011-07-22-123456.tcx) you can use gpsbabel:
+
+   # gpsbabel -t -i gtrnctr -f 2011-07-22-123456.tcx -o gpx -F 2011-07-22-123456.gpx
