        Hello, I would like to ask how can I connect to an ant+ hrm with ant-fs to download it's data.<br />
I tried using the ant-fs host program, to connect to my HRM:pro+<br />
I put 8070 for period, 120 Device type, 57 Frequency and finally the ANT+ network key. <br />
But I wasn't able to connect do I have to do something else ? or I misconfigured something ?

        Helle everyone, <br />
<br />
I have a Garmin HRM Pro device and I'm trying to implement an Android app (university purposes, not a commercial product), which will be able to get directly to the data stored in the device memory with ANT+/FS and download them from the device memory. <br />
<br />
I'm able to find the device with MultiDeviceSearch and listen to real time data with AntPlusHeartRatePcc. However I'd like to also somehow get to the data stored in the device memory (Garmin HRM Pro allows up to 18 hours of activity).<br />
<br />
I was trying to find the device somehow with Ant-FS but I failed so far to find and connect to the HRM Pro with Ant-FS.<br />
<br />
Is there please someone who would help me out how to achieve this or tell me if it is even possible to get to the HRM sensor history with ANT+ / Ant-FS?<br />
<br />
Thank you so much for any feedback! <img src="http://www.thisisant.com/images/smileys/smile.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="smile" style="border:0;" />

      <title>ANT&#45;FS Download Rejected Error</title>
      <link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="https://www.thisisant.com/forum/viewthread/7392/" />

      <![CDATA[
        I am trying to implement an ANT-FS data make-up feature on a sensor.  The concept is that the sensor is in ANT+ mode.  Then the slave device requests and ANT-FS session to request data that was missed.  The sensor keeps the channel open but changes to ANT-FS.  It keeps the ANT+ network key and frequency.  When the download is done, it goes right back to ANT+<br />
<br />
We have 3 sensors that have the data being captured with one ANT+ dongle on a PC.<br />
<br />
This is working very well most of the time.  However, occasionally (~1 in 30 downloads or so), we get a Download Rejected Error that isn't automatically recovered.  It looks like the sensor is supposed to go back into the Transmit beacon mode when this happens, but the system doesn't recover.<br />
<br />
Further, after the sensor times out and goes back to ANT+ and the ANT-FS session is requested again, it will immediately fail again for several manual retry attempts in a row after it fails once.  Just going back to ANT+ doesn't seem to correct the problem.<br />
<br />
We're a bit at a loss for how to further debug the problem.  It seems that the ANT-FS communications have just stopped.<br />
<br />
The ANT-FS sessions are done sequentially for the 3 sensors.  The second one waits for the first one to complete, etc.<br />
<br />
The 2 channels do not receive ANT+ data during the ANT-FS download of the other channel.  This is true whether the error occurs or not.<br />
<br />
What can we do to further debug this problem or implement a work around to get the download completed after a failure?

        <strong>Problem:</strong><br />
<br />
Every time I try to send an ANT-FS command, I get a response (with the Message ID = 0x40) which looks like this: [0x13][0xE2][0x28][0x3]. Which apparently means that the message I am sending is somehow invalid.<br />
<br />
I assume that byte 1 means channel number (which is strange because I am only using the channel 0 and my device only supports up to 4 channels), byte 2 means original message ID (0xE2 is apparently only the first out of two bytes of the original extended message ID), and byte 3 means response code (and according to the documentation 0x28 is a code for "invalid message" or "message with invalid parameters").<br />
<br />
<strong>Question:</strong><br />
<br />
Did I miss a configuration step or what is wrong? I can't find an answer anywhere including the documentation. I would appreciate any help.<br />
<br />
<strong>Additional Info:</strong><br />
<br />
I'm using DLL library, Mac, C++.<br />
<br />
USB stick: Dynastream ANT2USB (Serial: 10118, VID: 0xFCF, PID: 0x1004).<br />
<br />
Remote device: Forerunner 405.

        If I read the code (antfs.c) correctly, it appears that I can set up my device to use a beacon period of 0.5Hz when it's searching for an ANT-FS host and once a host link is established the device sets the Beacon Period to the host's (presumably 4Hz).  Is this correct?<br />
<br />
If so, does the beacon period revert to 0.5Hz when the Host disconnects or does the period remain at 4Hz?  <br />
<br />
This matters to me as a power savings.  <br />
<br />
It is also my understanding that the only downside to having a 0.5Hz beacon period is that it may take a bit longer to find a host.  If true, any idea how much longer it will take?  Just a figure of merit is all I need, I'm not looking for precision here...<br />
<br />
I'm currently using SDK version 10.0.0.0 but will be upgrading to 12.0.0.0 soon.  nRF51422 device (Dynastream N5180).<br />
<br />
Thanks in advance,<br />

        I have an N5150 SOC running my application and want ANT-FS running only at selected times.  Starting up is easy but I don't see any examples of closing/stopping ANT-FS.   Obviously it will 'stop' if I close the channel, but it seems I'd be leaving a bunch of 'residue' in the antfs functions.<br />
<br />
Another thought was calling state_machine_reset(), but this is a local function only so that doesn't seem to be an intentional interface.<br />
<br />
Any suggestions?<br />

But in the latest version of D00001309, "Fit File Types Description", there is no reference to the Broadcast Definition file type.<br />
