        Hi,<br />
<br />
I am using ANTWare II v4.1 and a USB1 ANT+ dongle.  Is there a reason why the "Open Scan Mode" button is grayed out?  Or what I need to do in order to enable it?  I am trying to sniff the air between two ANT+ devices and am able to see the broadcast packets but the dongle is ACK'ing the burst packets I am trying to sniff.<br />
<br />
Thanks.

Hi there,<br />
<br />
There is various non-Garmin ANT USB stick for general usage. Do those devices could be used with ANTWareII for development purposes. Couldn't find any Garmin Ant USB stick in the local market for a short time.

        I am working on a firmware for an Ant+ USB dongle I built for testing based on the nRF52840 SoC, and was able to collect data from a connected fitness (bike), and forwarded that to my PC through USB protocol. However, the format is something of my own, not what SimulAnt+ and other applications would comprehend.<br />
<br />
Assuming there is a some standard format to follow, is there any source code or protocol specification documents that can help me format the data properly to talk to SimulANT+? I want to communicate with Zwift, and I am assuming that it follows the same standard, no?

        Hello,<br />
<br />
For technical reasons about our chip, we need to implement some kind of "keepalive" service on a ANT+ device. So I had the idea of using 2 channels, one for transmitting and one for receiving messages on the same device.<br />
<br />
BUT, using ANTWare II or SimulANT+ i'm not able to receive any message from the same device.<br />
<br />
e.g: <br />
On ANTWare II:<br />
- Device A: Channel 0 - Master - Device Type 125 - Device Number 33 - Auto-Open<br />
(Starts broadcasting 00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00)<br />
-Device A: Channel 1 - Slave - Device Type 125 - Device Number 33- Auto-Open<br />
(EVENT_RX_SEARCH_TIMEOUT... EVENT_CHANNEL_CLOSED)<br />
<br />
Is this possible or is a software filtered issue?<br />
<br />
Thanks,

        I can connect with my bike trainer (Tacx Flow Smart) using ANTWarell if I input the relevant channel ID data but I cannot get a connection when using pairing and with channel ID data all set to 0. Can anyone tell me what the problem might be?<br />

        Hello,<br />
<br />
I have query about ANT burst mode, I want to confirm that which mode of ANT BURST uses automatic retries and which does not. Here is a document which states ANT BURST uses automatic retires but it's not clear if this is classic and advanced mode of burst.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://www.thisisant.com/resources/an04-burst-transfers/">https://www.thisisant.com/resources/an04-burst-transfers/</a><br />
<br />
<br />
Page 3/7:<br />
In addition to the increased throughput advantage, ANT Burst mode uses acknowledged messages with automatic retries to ensure successful data transfer while maintaining a simple interface to the application MCU. As an exception however, single packet bursts are handled identically to an acknowledged message, and are not retried.<br />
<br />
Thanks.

        Hi. All I want to do is view a log of RX messages from my power meter on my PC. It would appear this can be done with AntWare II. I attempted to use the Power Profile PDF and enter in the info necessary.<br />
<br />
EVENT_RX_SEARCH_TIMEOUT_0x01<br />
  :: 40, 07-01-01<br />
EVENT_CHANNEL_CLOSED_0x07<br />
  :: 40, 07-01-07<br />
<br />
Is what I'm seeing. What Channel do I set up the Slave on? Any ideas?<br />
<br />
I would have thought this would have been a trivial task.

        Hi.<br />
<br />
Aim: I need to broadcast some dummy data over ANT.<br />
<br />
I'm using a CYCPLUS USB dongle to transmit ANT packets in master mode (no receiver setup for receiving). But I'm unable to see any EVENT_TX logs generated from ANTWare II (v.4.1) as part of the transmission. This seems like very basic, am I missing something?. Thanks.<br />
<br />
The steps I have done to setup is:<br />
Connected CYCPLUS USB (auto driver install happened)<br />
Opened ANTWare II and I could see the device listed on 'Available devices'<br />
Assigned as Master in Channel assignment.<br />
Auto-Open. <br />
<br />
Note: It's always SlaveSearch~ID:0,0,0 in ANTWare II, no matter the mode (even if Master).

        Using this ressource : <a href="https://github.com/dhague/vpower/tree/acab2ec78e15851ba5a3a9176ff2177f02ed36fc">https://github.com/dhague/vpower/tree/acab2ec78e15851ba5a3a9176ff2177f02ed36fc</a> (PowerMEterTx.py) I am trying to set the power with my Rpi on my Power Meter Bike using Ant+. I think I am doing something wrong with the python and there is probably something I do not get.<br />
<br />
If I want to set the power to 300W I need to send this command in hex : 31-FF-FF-FF-FF-FF-B4-04 if I refere to the doc.<br />
<br />
Also Power Meter is device type 11. So using the code below I'd like to send my Hex code, but there is something I do not get with <div class="codeblock"><code><span style="color: #000000">
<span style="color: #0000BB">update&nbsp;</span>
</span>
</code></div>function. It looks like the payload is used to set the 8 values of my hex code, but I do not get how to change the code to set this 8 values. (31-FF-, etc...).If someone could enlighten me it would be great.<br />
<br />
Someone know how to send this command using python code ?<br />
<br />
Thanks<br />
