1 Introduction

The Android ANT validation is a testing application developed to validate ANT
Functionality as well as RF Performance on ANT supported Android Nobile Families.
1.1 Features
- The device undergoes three stages of testing to facilitate the usage of Broadcast,
Acknowledge and Burst Nessaging
- Allows for phone to phone testing
- Configurable Naster and Slave Devices
o Configurable Channel !D
o Configurable RF Frequency
o Configurable Nessage Period
- 5 minute and 60 minute individual and batch test modes
- Co-Existence testing with Bluetooth
- Results displayed on Application
- Results saved to SD Card

1.2 Requirements
1.2.1 Hardware Requirements
- ANT Supported Android Nobile Device
1

- SD Card present in device

2 Usage
2.1 Test Steps
Below are the steps to run the Test between 2 ANT Supported Android Nobile Devices.
All + tests have the identical steps.
1. Press the application icon to launch the application:

2. Below is the main screen consisting of + test buttons and a results view to
display the results at the completion of the test
a. Broadcast Test (TEST1)
b. Acknowledge Test (TEST2)
c. Burst Test (TEST3)

3. Wait for ANT Radio Enabled" toast notification
a. You will first receive the notification ANT Radio Not Enabled" as it takes
a few seconds to make the ANT Radio Service Connection. At this point
the Test Buttons will be disabled
b. !f a successful service connection is established, another toast ANT
Radio Enabled" will be displayed. At this point the Test buttons will be
enabled and you may proceed with the test
c. You will only receive these toast notifications, the first time that the
application is run, usually after the phone has been restarted. You W!LL

7. Wait for Naster Device and Slave Device to synchronize. To synchronize, the
devices undergo a Handshaking mechanism. The countdown timer begins upon
synchronization. The following should be the resultant screen states:
