I've been seeing these Page 247 and Page 243 packets showing up from those devices as part of the Bike Light Profile. I see them in the simulator when also connected to a Garmin device as well as in my logs in my own code. Sometimes I get a Page 70 requesting it.

I can't find any mention of those pages either in the ANT+ Bike Light document or the Common Pages document. Is there any information about those pages?

Thank You ]]> tag:https:,2024:/www.thisisant.com/forum/viewthread/.7715 2024-02-28T03:30:59Z 0 MAGICSHINE There is no related demo about ANT+ bicycle lights in the ANT+ demo provided by Nordic. We want to get the relevant Profile. ]]> tag:https:,2024:/www.thisisant.com/forum/viewthread/.7704 2024-01-19T13:46:25Z 2024-01-23T15:36:55Z martinlemaireScott
Developing a smart light, we realize that the Garmin Edge is sending an OFF order during the first 5 minutes of the activity to every connected lights.
This order is send by the computer on his own, with no user interaction.

We saw this with Garmin Edge 830 and 840.
Lights used are under development Syncros lights and also Garmin Varia lights.
This is not happening 100% of the time.

Did you already experienced this, and do you plan a correction on this?

Kind regards,

During field tests, we realize that the behavior of Edge 840 in Network auto mode with our lights is very different from the behavior with the Edge 830.

Is it an issue of our light or is there an update regarding this on the Edge 840?

Thank you for your reply,

Kind regards,

I tried to cycle through the light standard modes. Somehow the mode I set and the mode that light reported do not match. Not sure if my understanding of the ant light specification is incorrect or the light manufacturer did it their way.

The light page 02 says: 02 01 16 07 44 F0 00 04
My understanding is: it supports high/low beam, supports 5 modes and from standard modes it supports mode 4, 5, 6 and 7.

When I sent page 34 to set the standard modes from 4 to 7 the lights reported:
Set Mode 4
The light reported page 01: 01 01 4A 00 79 FF 08 2D - current mode 2
Set Mode 5
The light reported page 01: 01 01 4A 00 7B FF 14 0A - current mode 5
Set Mode 6
The light reported page 01: 01 01 4A 00 7C FF 18 28 - current mode 6
Set Mode 7
The light reported page 01: 01 01 4A 00 7D FF 20 23 - current mode 8

I checked if I read the page 01 bytes 5 and 6 specification correctly multiple times. Still do not understand how from modes 4, 5, 6 and 7 I got 2, 5, 6 and 8.

Do the tables 7-7, 7-12 and 7-43 from the ant light specification talk about the same modes? Or the page 34 has some other modes indexing?
Is missing bit 0 description in the table 7-7 important?

Thanks,
Rado

When in Individual network mode, and selecting Auto Mode for a specific light, we see the attached communication. (AutoModeEntrance.png)

First question is , why sending periodically the command 0x0E (Medium)?
Second is what is the 0xF3 meaning?

When trying to go in another mode, Off for example, we have the second attached communication: (AutoModeExit.png)

So it seems that when entering Individual Auto mode, it is impossible to exit it. Is it correct?
If not can the light can do something about it?

The only solution to exit it I found is to go to auto network mode and back to individual.

Kind regards,

We are facing an issue with Network option set to Auto mode and a Garmin Edge 530.

When changing mode (or event switching off the light) using the button on the light itself. This does not "override" the network option to individual.

We realize that doing the same on a VARIA RTL510, it was overriding the model the network mode to individual in the Garmin Edge 530.
So we are wondering what is the trigger to switch Garmin Edge 530 Network mode.

Thank you in advance for your help,

We've developed Bike light for a while. So far, we'd like to make bike light as a secondary light in system.
But we could not catch messages from controller through shared channel.

Here is the environment of our experiment :

1. We use host MCU (STM) with nrf24ap2-8ch as ANT radio to build up.
2. We use a bike light (Bonntrager) as main light in system.
3. We use Edge-530 as bike light controller.
4. Here are the commands we send for setting device as secondary light:

A4 09 4F 21 02 DD E5 58 7B 4F 06 B5
//received connect command from bike controller

A4 03 42 01 00 00 E4 = A4 03 40 01 42 00 A4
// command for assign channel [shared slave channel(1)] = responses from nRF24ap2

A4 05 51 01 01 00 24 06 D2 = A4 03 40 01 51 00 B7
//command for set channel ID [shared slave channel(1)] = responses from nRF24ap2

A4 03 43 01 F4 0F 1E = A4 03 40 01 43 00 A5
//command for set channel period [shared slave channel(1)] = responses from nRF24ap2

A4 02 45 01 39 DB = A4 03 40 01 45 00 A3
//command for set channel frequency [shared slave channel(1)] = responses from nRF24ap2

A4 01 4B 01 EF = A4 03 40 01 4B 00 AD
//command for open channel [shared slave channel(1)] = responses from nRF24ap2

A4 09 4E 01 02 01 40 00 E5 FF 00 FF 44
//command for sending Data Page 1 – Light States 1 in shared channel


After the last command we send above, we never received any command from shared channel.

(Bike controller could see our device and our device could joined the network as a secondary bike light.)


5. Attachment is the log file (.fit) we recorded from bike light controller (Edge530), it about the whole process of how we connect main light / secondary light and try to set properties of secondary light.

If there is any other info you need to know, please notice me, thanks!



Sincerely

EISO-Jack
