I would like to put my device into continuous scanning mode. I keep looking at RxOpenScanMessage. How do I implement this? From the documentation on continuous scan mode it says to

- Set network Key
- Assign Channel
- Set channel ID
- Set RF Frequency
- Rx Ext Messages Enable
- Open Rx Scan Mode

Does open Rx Scan mode have anything to do with RxOpenScanMessage? I am a bit new at android, and the documentation on this class does not say much.

Thanks

Hi,

Continuous scan mode is unavailable in the Android API as it blocks the operation of other channels as detailed in document D00001576 - Creating ANT Android Applications Rev 4.2.0.pdf in the Android ANT SDK.

From the doc:
To emulate the behavior of a continuous scan, an application can use a single background scanning channel and one or more slave channels.

Cheers
