ANT Forum

There's a problem with the ANT SDK that means that it's not really suitable for any Android App that needs realtime access to incoming ANT messages.

The problem is that AntChannel objects buffer incoming ANT messages and then periodically (once every 2 seconds) pass on the ANT messages to channel users (via the function onReceiveMessage)

This means that any time based application only knows when ANT messages were sent/received at a 2 second resolution.      

When using the ANT SDK, you can change the default behaviour by using the ConfigureEventBufferMessage.      

Alejandra, that sounds like what I'm after.

The DISABLE_EVENT_BUFFERING static property on the ConfigureEventBufferMessage class seems relevant but I don't know how to make use of this.

Do you have any guidance?

Thanks      

Calling disableEventBuffer on the AntChannel object fixes the problem!

Events are now being received in realtime.

Thanks      

thanks guys for sharing your ideas...      

How do we get a AntChannel to change the settings?

Up to now I only used the ANT+ SDK, but I want to receive messages at a higher interval (0.25ms).      

Hi, I managed to get the behaviour as I wanted. I just had to subscribe for subscribeRawCrankTorqueDataEvent to get all the messages........
