ANT Forum

Hi There,

I am building one LED display for Tour of Alberta Bike Race.

The basic idea for that design will be.

The bike power will be received by N5 start kit and transferred to relay which will trigger the contacts for LED lights.

If someone has suggestion or done same stuff in past please guide me, I am kind of new with N5.

Thanks,
Ravinder      

Hi!

I assume you have read the N5 starter kit manual and the ANT+ Bicycle Power Device Profile?

If you need help getting started with the code, you will probably find the ANT+ Bike Power code example in the Nordic nRF51 SDK helpful.

This general guidance for creating ANT embedded products should also help: http://www.thisisant.com/developer/ant/starting-your-project/#74_tab

That should get you going. If you have any more specific questions then it will be easier to help!

Thanks,

Hi Ravinder,

I noticed from another thread that you are still having difficulty with this.

One alternative approach could be to use an off-the-shelf Android app and display it using a large tablet or external screen. Two apps that support receiving bike power are IpBike and Cycle Bike plus. See details here: http://www.thisisant.com/directory/filter/~/115/~/~/

A second alternative approach: if you are skilled with C# you can write a PC application that would run from a PC or laptop and recieve via the ANTUSB (which is included in the N5 starter kit). This would mean you would not have to write any embedded code.

Hope that helps,

Kat
