Hello Bartłomiej,

Thank you for the update. I'm glad it worked.

[quote userid="129829" url="~/f/nordic-q-a/116170/ble-ant-and-apple-fine-my-integration/509643"]To configure it properly, update the /v2.7.0/.west/config file. I think it will be worth mentioning this in the documentation of ant and find-my and other external groups.[/quote]

I agree. It would be nice if west add an option to append configuration values. I will report this internally.

EDIT: we have an open PR to allow west to append configuration values: https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/west/pull/768

Hello Vidar,

Thanks for help.

Do you have both 'find-my' and 'ant' enabled in your west workspace group filter (/v2.7.0/.west/config)?

Mine looks like this:

This is the solution. I only had ant in the group-filter, after adding the find-my, the code was compiled without errors.

The source of the issue in short:

First, I configured the find-my according to the instructions, using the command west config manifest.group-filter +find-my, and ran the example.

Next, I configured the ant according to the instructions, using the command west config manifest.group-filter +ant, and ran the example. But in this step the command replaced the find-my in group-filter, not add next.

To configure it properly, update the /v2.7.0/.west/config file. I think it will be worth mentioning this in the documentation of ant and find-my and other external groups.

Hello Bartłomiej,

[quote user="bartlomiej"]If a proper understand you can run the ANT+, BLE and Find My in one project?[/quote]

I'm not sure if anyone has tried to combine these three protocols, but I don't see any immediate blockers. I expect you should have enough memory since you are using the nRF52840.

Click Create a new application next Copy as a sample, select nRF Connect SDK v2.7.0 and chose BLE ANT Heart Rate Monitor Relay, point the path to save.
In prj.conf i change the property CONFIG_ANT_EVALUATION_KEY=n to CONFIG_ANT_EVALUATION_KEY=y, nesesery step to build example.
In Add build configuration, select board nrf52840dk/nrf52840, in Base configuration file add prj.conf, click Build Configuration, and wait for finish build. The compilation should be without any error.
In prj.conf add the configuration line CONFIG_FMNA=y, and build. Now you should get error:

I repeated these steps, but was unable to reproduce the 'undefined symbol' error for FMNA (I used 'copy as sample' and placed the project .

Do you have both 'find-my' and 'ant' enabled in your west workspace group filter (/v2.7.0/.west/config)?

Hello Vidar,
Thanks for replay.

Both the "BLE ANT Heart Rate Monitor Relay" and "Find My Coexistence" examples work properly separately. So the SDK should be configured correctly.

My SDK structure:
v2.7.0
├── ant <-- ANT
├── bootloader
├── find-my <-- FIND-MY
├── modules
├── nrf
├── nrfxlib
├── test
├── tools
└── zephyr

If a proper understand you can run the ANT+, BLE and Find My in one project?

Steps to reproduce the error:

Click Create a new application next Copy as a sample, select nRF Connect SDK v2.7.0 and chose BLE ANT Heart Rate Monitor Relay, point the path to save.
In prj.conf i change the property CONFIG_ANT_EVALUATION_KEY=n to CONFIG_ANT_EVALUATION_KEY=y, nesesery step to build example.
In Add build configuration, select board nrf52840dk/nrf52840, in Base configuration file add prj.conf, click Build Configuration, and wait for finish build. The compilation should be without any error.
In prj.conf add the configuration line CONFIG_FMNA=y, and build. Now you should get error:

Hello,

I did not manage to reproduce this error here. The error you get says the FMNA symbol is defined, but it should be defined in <sdk_root>/find-my/src/Kconfig file. Is it possible that the project may be built against the wrong SDK? The SDK should have the following folder structure:

SDK_ROOT/
├── bootloader
├── find-my - Defines Find My related Kconfig symbols
├── modules
├── nrf
├── nrfxlib
├── test
├── tools
└── zephyr

You can find the SDK path used from the build log.

Best regards,

Vidar
