problems getting Garmin Ant+ stick to work with quarqd
Erik
Unfortunately cannot get it to work, tried OSX, and the Ubuntu option
with virtualbox.
Used initially the Garmin driver/software, seems to work, as the
software sees the Ant+ stick (red cross disappears when connected).
After that tried the alternative drivers, doesn't work as well.
Then the Ubuntu on Windows in VM, same story.
Looking in the /dev directory, no device is added for the Ant+ stick,
so quarqd won't start. Same issue with all options tried above.
What I noticed in Ubuntu, that the product ID is 4104 (hex 1008), in
drivers, in OSX (plist), 4100 is used, so also tried to change this,
no success.
As Garmin Ant Agent seems to recognize the device, not sure if there
is or is not a hardware problem, as I have an Edge 705 and no running
device from Garmin.
Any help/suggestions appreciated.

I believe if it is USB2 your out of luck as the USB to Serial
converter is no longer in the device.
If USB1, in the Ubuntu window, login and do a "lsusb -v" and see
whether you see the device listed somewhere. It will most likely be a
Dynastream device. Then check to see if in /dev you see a device
ttyUSB0.

Hope it can be fixed, otherwise have to start for the USB1 version.
Thanks for the quick replies.

sudo modprobe usbserial vendor=0x0fcf product=0x1008
will make the Ant+ stick show up as ttyUSB0 and you can run quarqd.

Cool, it's using the "generic ACM" driver. Where did you find this
command? Credit where it's due.

To make the change permanent, you can do
echo "options usbserial vendor=0x0fcf product=0x1008" >
/etc/modprobe.d/ant-usb2.conf
(do it as root, sudo -s makes you root)
If, like me, you have a bunch of different USB->serial devices, you
might want to give the stick a consistent filename:
echo 'SUBSYSTEM=="tty" ACTION=="add" ATTRS{idProduct}=="1008"
ATTRS{idVendor}=="0fcf" SYMLINK+="ttyANT"' >
/etc/udev/rules.d/10-antstick.rules
(do it as root, all on a line).
Then use "/dev/ttyANT" for $ANT_TTY instead of "/dev/ttyUSB0" or whatever.

I have uploaded a new version of the Quarqd Virtual Appliance,
including USB2 stick support. Could someone test it, please?

Im having some trouble with this too. This is the first time I have
used terminal on my mac for anything, so its all new to me. I have a
ANT2USB stick, so I try to follow the readme and enter "sudo modprobe
usbserial vendor=0x0fcf product=0x1008". When I do this, the terminal
window states "sudo: modprobe: command not found". Any idea what I'm
doing wrong? Are these directions for unix only?
Thanks,

Yeah, modprobe is a linux command to interact with the linux kernel at
runtime. The goal in this case is to load the driver; In Linux, the
driver is built into the kernel. On Mac, you'll need to install the
drivers separately.

Long time since this has been commented on. Hoping someone has a solution by now. Looks like they aren't making drivers for USB2 ANT+ sticks for OSX though. It appears that it's up to the developer to to get it to work with the software they are building. So how do you get quarqd working with the USB2 version when modprobe doesn't exist and there aren't any drivers?
