I am trying to make work the Continuous Scanning Mode Demo available here:
http://www.thisisant.com/developer/ant/advanced-features#44_tab

I have compiled it with VS2008 Express, as needed.
I also added the Set ANT_Network Key in the Channel configuration.

Here is a example of the problem I'm facing, no data is received while another ANT_Stick is emitting data non-stop, screenshot here:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/p8ugk1qx3yqjgbw/CSM_mode.png?dl=0

I am not able to receive any data inside the Demo, what could be the reason? Is the example suposed to work out of the box?
CSM Code below. nothing changed except I added the ANT Network Key

BOOL ANTControl_ConfigScanningMode(USHORT usDeviceNo_, UCHAR ucDeviceType_, UCHAR ucTransType_, UCHAR ucRFFreq_, BOOL bRxOnly)
{
    BOOL bStatus = TRUE;

    cdScanningMode.usDeviceNo = usDeviceNo_;
    cdScanningMode.ucDeviceType = ucDeviceType_;
    cdScanningMode.ucTransType = ucTransType_;
    cdScanningMode.ucRFFreq = ucRFFreq_;
    if(bRxOnly)
        cdScanningMode.ucChannelType = 0x40;
    else
        cdScanningMode.ucChannelType = 0x00;


 UCHAR USER_NETWORK_KEY[8] =  {0xAA, 0xAA, 0xAA, 0xAA, 0xAA, 0xAA, 0xAA, 0xAA, }; //removed ANT Key so I can post on forums
 
 // SetNetworkKey
 ANT_SetNetworkKey(ANT_NETWORK, USER_NETWORK_KEY);  //0, USER_NETWORK_KEY
 if(!WaitAck(MESG_NETWORK_KEY_ID, MESSAGE_TIMEOUT))
    bStatus = FALSE;

    // Config scanning mode
    // Using public network, so no need to set network key
    ANT_AssignChannel(cdScanningMode.ucChannel, cdScanningMode.ucChannelType, ANT_NETWORK);
  if(!WaitAck(MESG_ASSIGN_CHANNEL_ID, MESSAGE_TIMEOUT))
    bStatus = FALSE;
    
    // Set channel ID mask
 ...
} 

Thanks,
Max

Found the problem

RF should be set to 57, not 66 like the Demo set by default
Thanks

Hi Max

This is great, it also helped me.

I think ANT+ is great and have built an application which uses the standard protocol. I am now trying to enhance it with Continuous Scanning Mode. Hopefully the ANT+ community will be able to help out. You seem to be one of the most active people on the forum. Good work!

Thanks
