Hi,

I am developing an ANT+ embedded device (nrf52832, SDK14.2) , that (among other things) acts as a BSC receiver.
I have a BCS sensor that is seen in Garmin Edge as 136150, so in order to get data from the sensor, I set in my device:
Transmission type 0x21 (as 136150 = 0x213D6, upper nibble is 0x2, lower nibble is 0x1)
Device ID 0x13D6

but the receiver does NOT recognize the sensor.

I decided to EMULATE the sensor and created a Tx simulator with the same parameters. The sim is recognized by Garmin Edge as (surprise) 136150.

So it seems, there are "different kinds" of the same number.

My hypothesis is that Garmin Edge displays only a part of the Device ID.

So, the questions is: what Transmission Types and Device ID parameters should I use to recognize the sensor that is displayed as 136150 in Garmin Edge?

Have you had a chance to read this FAQ post? The transmission type's lower nibble must remain the same as in the profile.
