ANTUSB-m The ANTUSB-m is a USB dongle that provides a quick and easy solution for Windows PC, Mac and Android equipment with an USB type A port to connect to ANT wireless networks. Applications running on these computers or equipment often perform as the hub node of a network through the ANT USB stick to receive, store, analyze and display data collected from ANT sensors or other wearable or portable hub devices, e.g. watches and bike computers. The application may also serve as the gateway to the Internet for cloud computing. The ANTUSB-m is a miniature design. When plugged in, the majority of the body is buried inside the computer or equipment. The ANTUSB-m includes many new feature enhancements of ANT that deliver a better user experience on data download, private and secure data transfer, and connectivity with multiple devices. For a detailed description and usage of these ANT enhancements, please refer to “ANT Message Protocol and Usage” revision 5.0 or above. The ANTUSB-m offering is supported by a set of Windows, MAC and Android drivers and a software library that provides application level interface to ANT functions. The accompanying software available from Garmin Canada Inc. includes sample application code that dramatically reduces the time required for connecting a computer to an ANT sensor network. Operating in the globally available ISM radio frequency band of 2.4GHz, the ANTUSB-m stick conforms to multinational RF regulatory standards, allowing the same product line to be sold and used in North America, Europe, and Asia, without modification. 1.1 1.1.1 ANT Feature Enhancements Advanced Burst Advanced Burst is intended to facilitate and improve the ability of devices to reliably transfer information at a faster speed as high as 60kbps true data throughput. Advanced Burst will improve the efficiency of transferring a file over ANT-FS and provide a greater immunity to RF interference. It will also make the transfer less susceptible to failure when faced with a slow throughput from the host. 1.1.2 Single Channel Encryption The new encrypted channel feature will allow data to be transmitted securely, enabling/simplifying applications that require data privacy, such as in the use cases of some medical devices. An ANT encrypted channel works in a connected state, where any number of slave channels may connect to an encrypted master channel after a successful negotiation. All transmitted packets will be protected using 128-bit AES-CTR symmetrical encryption. 1.1.3 High Duty Search High duty search is a new search mode that replicates the duty cycle of a scanning channel for search purposes. This improves acquisition time in the general case. High duty search is targeted for higher power budget use cases such as USB sticks and cell phones. It aids in acquisition time and in improving search performance during multiple wireless protocol coexistence scenarios. 1.1.4 NVM User Space ANTUSB-m has a 500-byte Non-Volatile Memory space that allows a host application to store and/or retrieve data on an ANT device. This feature could allow applications to retrieve specific data configured in an ANT Device during manufacturing. The maximum data block size is 36 bytes. 1.1.5 Event Buffer Event Buffering is a feature designed to allow a host controller to configure a buffer to limit the frequency at which events are being sent from the ANTUSB-m to the Host. Event Buffering is intended for instances where the Host wishes to defer processing of ANT Events, generally in an effort to remain in a power down state for a longer period of time. Event Buffering can often be used with Event Filtering in these scenarios. The maximum event buffer size is 724 bytes. thisisant.com ANTUSB-m USB Stick Datasheet, Rev1.8 1.1.6 Page 7 of 15 Event Filter Event Filtering is a feature designed to allow a Host controller to selectively prevent event messages from being sent from the ANTUSB-m to the Host. Event Filtering is intended for instances where the host wishes to eliminate processing of ANT Events, generally in an effort to remain in a power down state for a longer period of time or to avoid additional processing. Event Filtering can often be used with Event Buffering in these scenarios. 1.1.7 Fast Channel Initiation A fast channel start can be selected when the channel is assigned. This will start a synchronous channel as soon as possible and will skip the search window check that is performed prior to starting a synchronous channel. An inherent risk in this operation is that it may negatively impact other devices in the area by starting a transmit channel at the same time. The lowest latency channel start time will occur when there are no other channels actively running/opened on the device. 1.1.8 Asynchronous Transmission Channel An asynchronous channel can be selected when the channel is assigned. Pushing any data to an asynchronous channel will cause it to transmit this data as soon as possible one time. Asynchronous data will not block currently active synchronous channels unless the transmission is a burst. The lowest latency asynchronous channel transmission start time will occur when there are no other channels actively running/opened on the device. A scanning device will be needed to receive from an asynchronous transmitter. 1.1.9 Selective Data Updates Selective Data Updating allows an application to request that the ANTUSB-m only generates received data serial messages if data in specified bytes has changed. This feature can be enabled for Broadcast messages only, or for Broadcast and Acknowledged messages. This would apply to applications which only need to update the display when the displayed data has actually changed and would like to be asleep otherwise. Up to 2 masks may be defined. 1.2 Drivers Drivers are required for the ANTUSB-m • Windows XP, Vista, 7 and 8 (Except for Windows RT) The Windows driver has been WHQL (Windows Hardware Quality Labs) certified and listed on windows updates. This allows the automatic driver installation, when the computer is connected to the internet, without special configuration or UAC (User Account Control) prompts. The driver is also available from www.thisisant.com. • Mac OS X10 and above ANTUSB-m is designed to work with Apple’s I/O Kit framework. No additional driver installation is required on Mac OS X machines. • Android 3.1 and above The ANT USB Service and ANT Radio Service are freely available from play.google.com. The Android phone or tablet needs to support USB host feature, and for some, an USB socket converter or an USB OTG (On-The-Go) cable is required. 1.3 ANT library ANT library packages are provided for development in several languages, including C++ for Windows and Mac, .Net library for Windows, and Java for Android. ANT library packages are accessible from www.thisisant.com upon the acceptance of the ANT+ adopter agreement. The usage of the Windows and Mac OS X library package is governed by ANT+ Shared Source License. The usage of the Android SDK package is governed by the Apache 2.0 license.

The default VID, PID and other default descriptor values are listed below. 1.5 Descriptors Default Value VID 0x0FCF PID 0x1009 Manufacturer String Dynastream Innovations Device String ANT USB-m Stick Product Model and Brand The ANTUSB-m stick is released in black color, unbranded and with a special ANT+ figure mark on the front. The top side is left blank for customers to print or apply a sticker of their own logos or brand names. Product customization is offered for volume customers at a cost. The customization includes the choice of color, logo or brand printing on top or front and preload data up to 500 bytes in the user writer space. Please contact Garmin Canada Inc. directly for such request. 1.5.1 Top Logo Area The top logo area of the ANTUSB-m is one of the options for printing. The surface is curved near the end of the stick, but any distortion of a flat image will be too small to make out under visual inspection The dimensions for a logo are: Width: 11mm Height: 7.1mm for a flat image projected onto the surface (7.3mm after projecting) Figure 1 Top Logo Area using ANT+ Logo for Illustration The curvature of the surface is larger near the end of the ANTUSB-m. So this is the area where any stretching of the image will occur. The bottom corners do have a large fillet on them (approximately 1.9mm in radius). As such, any logos must take this into account if it is desired to have the logo off center. thisisant.com ANTUSB-m USB Stick Datasheet, Rev1.8 1.5.2 Page 9 of 15 Front Logo Area The end logo area is the second location available for branding. It is a gently curved surface facing directly out when installed in a standard USB port. Figure 2 Front Logo Area Using ANT+ Figure for Illustration The dimensions for a logo are: 10.2mm x 3.5mm The fillets on the edge can cause some distortion to the image as they “curl away” from the main printing location. This distortion will not be visible to the naked eyes. As well, objects that extend too far around the corner cannot be printed. 1.6 Ordering Information The ANTUSB-m sticks are shipped in two packages from Garmin Canada Inc.. 1.7 ANT Part Number Package and Size ANTUSB-m - Bulk 1000 ANTUSB-m sticks in one Carton.
