When I try to connect to my PowerTap by requesting access to the Bike Power PCC the Plugin crashes when the device is within range.

I use the following command to request access (device number = 0, proximity = 0):

AntPlusBikePowerPcc.requestAccess(mContext, (int)mDeviceNumberPOWER, Constants.SEARCH_PROXIMITY_THRESHOLD, iPluginAccessResultReceiver, iDeviceStateChangeReceiver);


I got the following error log:

Any idea what is going wrong? My heart rate and speed / cadence sensors are working quite well.

Thanks a lot in advance.      

I also get a similar message using a Stages power meter. I am able to connect using the UI method :
public void requestAccess(Activity userActivity,
Context bindToContext,
boolean skipPreferredSearch,
int searchProximityThreshold,
AntPluginPcc.IPluginAccessResultReceiver<AntPlusBikePowerPcc> resultReceiver,
AntPluginPcc.IDeviceStateChangeReceiver stateReceiver)
but I'd prefer to use the non-UI method to connect when the device is already paired. Looks like all messages can be received with the method above.

Also, has my post about a faulty response from the non-UI requestAccess method for Bike Speed & Cadence been verified?

Yes, verified the new plug-in version 2.2.0 requestAccess method works on Stages and PowerTap G3.
