ANT Forum

I'm a beginner in FS protocol.

Is there any connection stream sample (only TX<->RX command string) just to easy understand what is not so easily explained in ANT_File_Share_Technology.pdf documentation file ?

For example :
First string a4 09 4f 00 46 ff ff ff ff 00 43 02 e5 sent by
ANT-FS Host utility to Client (ACK 0x46 command) is not documented
in ANT_File_Share_Technology.pdf .
Which response is needed from client ?

Thanks      

If you want to see a sample of the raw messages, the best option is to use the ANT-FS PC tools (both the host and client) and walk through a session. Make sure you enable debugging in both, and you can later use those logs as the reference you are looking for.

Also, please make sure you are familiar with the ANT Message Protocol and Usage document, as a throrough understanding of the ANT protocol is required to implement ANT-FS.

By the way, which client are you connecting to?      

I'm developing an ANT+ power meter (my firmware is already written and verified with ANT+ verification tool).

I talked , and i was adviced by Ross Sterling in Eurobike 11 , to implement ANT-FS (for firmware upgrade and data transfer mode).

So i need to write the client side of ANT-FS.      

Ok. Looking at the device logs between the PC host and client would help a lot. Also, there is an embedded reference design for an ANT-FS client that may help you with your implementation; the source code of the PC tools is also available (although the PC client does not yet support uploads).
