Hi Kenneth,

Please give me suggestion, which example should I use for scanning Garmin GSC10 ?

Thanks

It is not easy to provide a simple answer here, but here it goes:

Any of the master examples should show how you can scan for ANT devices, while ANT+ is "just" defined configuration and usage of an ANT channel. So if you know how to scan for an ANT device, then you can go to the ANT+ profile you are interested in to find the specific configuration you need to set for the ANT channel to "find" the ANT+ device you are in specific interested in. You need to register as an ANT+ adopter on www.thisisant.com to be able to support ANT+.

Hi Kenneth,

Thanks for the reply,

................ So if you know how to scan for an ANT device, then you can go to the ANT+ profile you are interested in to find the specific configuration you need to set for the ANT channel to "find" the ANT+ device you are in specific interested in................

Which file should I change to configure my ANT code talking with my Garmin GSC-10?

What's the configuration (channel, frequency and so on ) for Garmin GSC-10 ?

Where can I find ANT+ profile I'm are interested in ,which file in code example?

...........................You need to register as an ANT+ adopter on www.thisisant.com to be able to support ANT+...............

I have registered, what will I do from that registration ? I have put ANT key license on my code.

Thanks

What should I change here for pairing with Garmin GSC10?

 const ant_channel_config_t ms_channel_config =
    {
        .channel_number    = ANT_MS_CHANNEL_NUMBER,
        .channel_type      = CHANNEL_TYPE_MASTER,
        .ext_assign        = 0x00,
        .rf_freq           = RF_FREQ,
        .transmission_type = CHAN_ID_TRANS_TYPE,
        .device_type       = CHAN_ID_DEV_TYPE,

        .network_number    = ANT_NETWORK_NUM,
    };

    const ant_channel_config_t bs_channel_config =

        .device_type       = CHAN_ID_DEV_TYPE,
        .device_number     = 0x00,              // Wild card
        .channel_period    = 0x00,              // This is not taken into account.
        .network_number    = ANT_NETWORK_NUM,
