Hi,
Is it possible to assign a specific channel number to an Android app acting as an Ant master? What i can see in the app is that i can only request a free channel. Otherwise on my custom slave module i can easy assign a channel number in the initialization.

Thank You!

No, you cannot assign a specific channel number, you will receive a free channel from the pool.
However, you should not need to have a specific channel number. Channel number does NOT need to match between master and slave to establish a connection. The channel parameters that need to match are the network key, channel ID, radio frequency, and channel period.

Thank you! I see, actually i can match master and slaves with the device id and works well. Thank you for the fast reply.
