Wellue/Viatom Checkme O2 connection problem

RE: Wellue/Viatom Checkme O2 connection problem
You have to use either the file created by the PC or from your cell phone. OSCAR does not support a direct import from the oximeter.

That cable looks a lot better than the original ones - sealed and short rather than a long easily opened housing. The "cable" is not just wires - it includes a CH9326 HID to Serial chip. Mine has been through the wars and I've had to repair the USB side and the cable side as it has been knocked and bent at various times.

I learnt the hard way losing my first usb cable and then got another O2ring a couple of years later and have been using insight software since instead of bluetooth . The 2nd O2 ring wont charge now so just going to send the ring back for a refund and keep the cable. See if that works. Grey band broke in middle on 1st one but since fixed it with sticky tape and is more comfortable than the grey stock ring on its own. Nice to have a circuit diagram to wire that chip up so I can make a longer cable.

Why not get a USB extension cable? So long as the USB/HID chip is in the physical path, it will work.

Yup, the old style cable wasn't durable and flexing of the cable at the housing has a tendency to break the wires at the solder pads which is repairable if one can solder. My wife's O2Ring band did break and I 'stitched' it together which worked OK.
The new cable looks better designed and hopefully more durable. I think I would mark or tag it somehow to identify it as cable specifically  for the Checkme O2 as it looks too similar to other standard USB cables and could easily get mixed up with other cables. Replacement is pricey like its predecessor.

Cable is hot glued to the housing and the wires have not broken off from the solder pads since doing this.

I have a Vibeat OxyRing Oxygen Monitor and also have issues with connections not always working. I reread the help and they said to 1) turn the Bluetooth off and on, but that did not work. 2) They also said to delete the O2 ring from the ViHealth application. I did it and it worked!

I hope this helps!

StratCat48, it's interesting that your white cable is connected to RXD while mine is connected to TXD. It's possible that I rewired it incorrectly (not sure if both were broken off at some point), but it still works in its current state. Was the patch wire there when you opened it or did you add that as a repair?

I've had network patch cables that had the wrong wire color sequence, but because the other end matched, the cable worked correctly. Neither end matched the 568a or 568b spec.
