Here's the current state following the N5 Starter Kit User Manual Rev 2.0:

ANT stick:

using nRFgo:
1) Erased all

2) Programmed SoftDevice with "s210_nrf51422_4.0.1_softdevice.hex"

3) Programmed Program Application with "ant_network_processor_s210" (C:\Keil_v5\ARM\Device\Nordic\nrf51422\Board\n5_series\s210\ant_network_processor)


IO board:

using nRFgo:
1) Erased all

2) Programmed SoftDevice with "s210_nrf51422_4.0.1_softdevice.hex"

using Keil:
1) Programmed Reference Code "ant_io_rx" as per pg 22 of User Manual (C:\Keil_v5\ARM\Device\Nordic\nrf51422\Board\n5_series\s210\ant_io_demo\io_rx\arm)

The current problem I'm having:

pg 24-25, Section 5.1.1 :
The ANT stick functions; however, the IO board is missing. It does not respond. Any thoughts? Much appreciated.

Hi,

This appears to be an error in the user manual, I believe the author intended for you to load the "ant_io_tx" demo which opens a master channel, rather than the "ant_io_rx" demo which opens a slave channel.

Cheers

Thanks. There appears to be a couple missing steps in the user manual that can use some updates. Let me know if you would like me to pass on what I've encountered so far.

Uploading the "tx" on the IO board, talking to the "slave" ANT chip works.

I'll give a shot inverting the two

I gave a shot changing the IO board to the "rx" file and setting the ANT stick to "master"

I got the following to communicate as follows:

* buttons from IO board are seen by the ANT stick as shown by the message log
* the simulation (section 5.1.1) to get the LEDs on the IO board to light up does not work.

How do I get the LEDs to illuminate?

Page 18 of the user manual contains the message command table.

Thanks for the reply. That is part of the instruction I have followed in all previous attempts.

I do not get responses.

Hi imginit,

From your screenshot, it appears you are sending 00-00-00-00-00-00-00-FD instead of 01-00-00-00-00-00-00-FD. The commands must match exactly for it to work. Also, please try using the "Messaging" tab instead of "Simulation" first so you can see commands go out as you send them.

Cheers

Thank you thank you!

It's always the little details overlooked that does me over.

Up and running.
