Sensor Conversion

Convert common ANT+ Fitness Sensors to Bluetooth and Vice Versa

With this device, you can convert ANT+ to Bluetooth, Bluetooth to ANT+, and simultaneously broadcast any combination of ANT+ and Bluetooth fitness sensors as ANT+ and Bluetooth. On top of that, you can transmit any heart rate monitor (including an Apple Watch) as an ANT+ or Bluetooth heart rate signal for connecting to fitness equipment.

Apple TV Optimization

Connect more devices

Apple TV is limited to 2 Bluetooth connections outside of the remote, so you are left deciding which sensors to connect. Using CÔRD or WYÛR, you can connect as many ANT+ or Bluetooth Fitness Sensors to your Apple TV as you want! Connect your sensors to CÔRD or WYÛR via ConfigurEZ, then connect CÔRD or WYÛR to the relevant sensor profiles in your favorite virtual training app on your Apple TV. It's that simple!

Apple Watch as a Heart Rate Monitor

Baked into every NPE Home Fitness product, heartbeatz technology lets you connect the heart rate monitor in your Apple Watch as if it were a standard ANT+ or Bluetooth heart rate monitor.

Good but expensive

Works fine but think the price is to high.

Simply doesn’t work

Purchased this to link a Bluetooth heart monitor to ant+ only equipment, one of the explicit use cases stated on their website and confirmed by their support team after sale, and it simply didn’t work. It wouldn’t link any Bluetooth device I own to anything via ant+, and would not output an ant+ signal without an ant+ source.

When I reached out to support I was given a vague response about how their engineers would be looking in to it. When I asked for a refund, the trail went cold. Naturally I’ll be filing a chargeback tomorrow morning, but I advise yall to skip this as too good to be true because it simply is.

Configuration not possible with Samsung S24 Ultra

The configureEZ app is broken. A pop-up notification says that the app requires an update. Clicking the link in the pop-up takes you to the Play Store page, which says the app is already updated. Returning to the configureEZ app, nothing happens when pushing the buttons.
The solution was borrowing my wife's iPhone. The same weird pop-up comes up, but at least the buttons work in the app on the iPhone.
Besides that, the CORD requires a reboot before each workout to output any data to Wahoo Fitness.
After all this struggle, the device does work in the end, hence the two-star rating.
Using this with my Body Bike indoor spinning bike.

Not work with a Tacx neo 2T on Rouvy

Impossible to use with Rouvy the bridge cannot pilot the trainer only sensors 😢

CORD

I absolutely love the CORD. It has been by far the easiest device to connect. The key is connecting it to a power source,(a wall plug) download the ConfigurEZ and pair your device. It really is this easy! Please bring these back in stock so that I can purchase a couple more for backup!!

Selma glad to hear it! We are happy you are thoroughly enjoying our product :)
