ant+ usb stick problems

[joschau]

hi,

i wanted to try out real time training with GC, problem is that i cant get my sensors to connect.

windows7 64bit

USB1-Wireless USB Stick

FCC id: 06RUSB-A

IC: 3797A-USBA

USB\VID_0FCF&PID_1004&REV_0300

USB\VID_0FCF&PID_1004

is this stick not supported or where is the fault^^.

[Mark Liversedge]

Make sure the stick is not in use by Garmin software. Garmin express software, ANT+ agent and friends tend to hog it.

Sometimes it helps to provide more info too.. like what O/S you are running, how to recreate  etc.

Problem on USB1 is testing when creating a release.

(without having access to an USB1 stick).

Please tryout the 32 bit version - which has a different

version of the USB1 library included. Or if you have

use 32bit GoldenCheetah then 64bit.

@all - if someone has an unused USB1 ANT stick

floating around and would be willing to donate that.

Or if someone has an idea where I still can buy one.

(without signifcant costs) I would be willing to do so 

to be able to test the USB1 library for Windows as well.

Thanks Mark - I always forget this one (since it currently does not bother me any more / for whatever reason is works in parallel now) - but was facing this in the past as well.

I'd second that, is always a worry not being able to test the old USB1
code when doing ANT related development. Would probably consider a swap
if someone wants a USB2 stick in exchange (am UK based).

Cheers,
Jon

I've got a USB1 stick lying around playing in the dust. Who should I send it to?

I have an original TACX USB stick made by Dunastream. I suspec that is USB1 as well?

I just built the latest GC and when I try to add a device and specify ANT, it seg faults immediately. (/dev/ttyUSB0 on Linux)

If the Ant stick is not in it will allow me to scan or specify the serial port on the next dialog.

Crash information did not seem useful.

Standard out showed:

ANT device reset was not acknowledged !...try again

Segmentation fault (core dumped)

[Jon Escombe]

Could you check the vendor and product id with the lsusb command?

0fcf:1004 should be the USB1 stick, 0fcf:1008 is the USB2

Regards,
Jon

Yeah, it's the ancient (6 years old now) 1004 USB 1...

I finally got some output:

Did you need to reboot? change device permissions?

Be useful to know what changed ?

Thanks

Thanks, I'm keeping an eye on eBay for a reasonably priced one..

Out of interest, is this your own build, or a pre-compiled binary? Might
be good just to rule out a build/configuration issue if you're able to
run a packaged build - not sure what platform you're on?

Regards,
Jon

[P. Ik.]

Compiled build. I'm on arch Linux

[pwkpete]

I pulled the device and reinserted from all I can tell. In both instances /dev/ttyUSB0 was there so not sure.

Anyway, should ANT 1 devices work on Linux? Looking closer at the comments, perhaps I would not expect it to:

# If you want support for using USB1 sticks in Train View on Windows

# then install the SiLabs USBXpress Software Development Kit (SDK)

...

# If you want support for using USB2 sticks in Train View on Linux or Windows

# then you need to install libusb (Linux) or libusb-win32 (Windows) version 0.1.12

Does the latter also imply USB1 on Linux? This is what I have configured.

This ANT device is junk - poor signal strength / reception, but I thought it would be acceptible to do testing/dev work with it.... Don't want to mess with my trainer setup - TTS is so finicky, I don't want to break it :)

[Jon Escombe]

I believe in linux it uses the cp210x driver (see comments in ANT.h),
and should appear as a new virtual serial device.

It's supposed to work, but I think testing is a problem due to a lack of
devices.

Regards,
Jon

[P. Ik.]

You are correct the cp210x driver is used for it. I have a couple other devices that use that driver already.

I guess I must be getting sloppy as a result of rushing/limited time; make clean, make and it finds my HRM now.

Not sure why or what is different in the build but whatever. Maybe something was partially built in a previous iteration.

I'm not normally out of sorts on this type of work :)

If there is debugging on USB1 devices that I can help with, I'm glad to assist.

I have problems to connect my ANT+ Stick on Golden Cheetah 4 (Ubuntu 14.04)

6)  But as you can see in the attached image , Golden Cheetah 4 can't find the ANT + devices

What do wrong? Some help.

Thank you so much

[Diego Heredia Sanchez]

I solved the problem. All you need to do is add in the /etc/udev/rules.d directory , the file 51-garmin-usb.rules which I modified by adding two lines more:

# Garmin ANT+ - USB1

ATTRS{idVendor}=="0fcf", ATTRS{idProduct}=="1004", MODE="0666"

# Garmin ANT+ - USB2

ATTRS{idVendor}=="0fcf", ATTRS{idProduct}=="1008", MODE="0666"

# hLine USB2 ANT2

ATTRS{idVendor}=="0fcf", ATTRS{idProduct}=="1009", MODE="0666"

No need to do anything more. In case anyone else has the same problem

[G Coco]

Thanks. I updated the 51-garmin-usb.rules file.
