Hello,
Can someone help me Garmin FR70 with Garmin ANT USB data to read? :(
I now use the example Demo.Net, see the code.
But he wants no connection with channel.
Can not find it. The Garmin ANT Agent works well.
I use USB driver INF ANT_USB_STICK_2
Does anyone have a piece of C #. Net code?
Which network key should I use?
Thanks, Henk
ps: the institutions of the Demo
static readonly byte CHANNEL_TYPE_INVALID 2;

        static 
readonly byte USER_ANT_CHANNEL 0;         // ANT Channel to use
        
static readonly ushort USER_DEVICENUM 0;        // Device number    
        
static readonly byte USER_DEVICETYPE 120;          // Device type
        
static readonly byte USER_TRANSTYPE 0;           // Transmission type

        
static readonly byte USER_RADIOFREQ 57;          // RF Frequency + 2400 MHz

        
static readonly byte[] USER_NETWORK_KEY { 0xB90xA50x210xFB0xBD0x720xC30x45 };
        static 
readonly byte USER_NETWORK_NUM 0;         // The network key is assigned to this network number

If you are looking to download data from the watch, you would need to use ANT-FS. The radio frequency is 50, and the network key is the ANT-FS key, which is available here

Before you start trying to develop an application to download data from the watch, we would highly recommend to have a look at the resources for ANT-FS first.

You should be able to use the ANT-FS PC Tools (PC Host) to connect to the watch. There is no Quick Config for the FR70, but you can start with the Quick Config for the FR60 and wild card (set to 0)the Device Type on the Host Parameters tab.

Once you have a better understanding of ANT-FS and its main functionalty, the DEMO_ANTFS is a better starting point for your development.
