Hi,

we had an discussion regarding our LEV sensor that it might send to our LEV display beside standard page data (speed, gear,..) some other data. Is it by any chance possible to use Reserved bytes in Pages 1 -5? Would this result in an error or violation of certification? Thank you.

Regards, Ram

Use of reserved bytes is not permitted and is a certification failure. In the future these bytes can be used by the ANT+ profile and your device will cause ill behavior if they are not set to the reserved value.

You will want to use the manufacturer specific page range and send in the 4th slot in the tx pattern "common & optional data pages".
