Thanks for the useful information about ANTUSB-m. In fact busting could be useful to get a good data rate in this application where power consumption is not of prime concern.

ANT does make and sell an nRF51422 compatible USB product that is fully regulatory certified and available via Nordic distributors or DigiKey. The part number is ANTUSB-m. Note the nRF51422 supports many new features than the AP2 is capable of, including increased burst rates. In the nRF2779 these features are not supported. http://www.thisisant.com/developer/components/antusb-m/ Drivers and libraries are on our website and the USB-m should automatically work in current windows platforms.

Hi Henning,

Yes, using the nRF2779 USB dongle is the preferred way to interface easily with a PC. There should be examples and APIs on how to do this on Dynastreams pages (they own the ANT stack): www.thisisant.com/.../

You may have to login/register to get access to all the info. Their forums are also quite useful, as users contribute with different applications.
