It will respond to whomever knows its number, so to speak. Basically, there is no way to "lock" who the kickr is listening to. You can have your garmin connected as well to receive data from your devices, but don't be sending calibration commands to your power meters or any sort of power-commands or calibration commands to the kickr. other applications!!!ĮrgVideo controls your Kickr while you ride. If you suspect this, try a short (6 inch/15cm) USB extension plugged into the computer port, and your stick in the other end. There is either some shielding or noise provided by the computer that makes reception poorer. We've also seen USB adapters not work terribly well when connected directly into a laptop port.
That way every Wifi device in the room will page in on that band (if they are half-way modern). You may want to move your Wifi to a new band, like 5GHz. If you think the data you see is a bit wingy, look around for emitting devices (including a microwave oven). All of these signals appear as noise to ant+ and can cause data errors and really affect range. But bluetooth, your wireless home-phone extension, your mobile phone's wifi, and even your home Wifi share the very crowded unlicensed 2.4GHz consumer band. interference:ĪNT+ devices don't interfere with one another due to the channel coding, modulation scheme, and very clever time-domain signal spacing. We use ours connected to a USB 3.0 port (higher power drive) even though it is a USB 2 cable and the ANT+ sticks so far are all USB 2 standard. So they are like the above diagram without the extra power supply. The hub has some signal conditioning to match the cable characteristics and reduce data errors that are often seen on passive cables. Basically these are cables with an integrated one-port hub, that powers from your USB port. We've also had great luck with "active usb extension cables". Plug in your ANT+ stick into one of the hub ports. This will ensure your ANT+ receiver stick is mostly happy with its power. If you have a place that needs the USB stick to say, hang above all stations so that all device signals can be received ( and this is a great idea), add in a powered usb hub at the far end (non-pc connected side) of the USB extension cable, and of course, connect the power supply to your ac power. Laptops are notorius for being stingy with supply current here. The reason is that most ports can't supply clean power over such long hops, and your receiver stick operation will be flaky. If you need to use a short (2ft) cable to get your stick to be in-sight of all stations, do that, but avoid long usb cable extensions.

Don't plug it into the back of your pc if that side isn't facing you. Place your USB stick where you can see it.
receiver placement and using USB cable extensions So don't be surprised if you can easily receive signals from your kickr, but your bike mounted sensors drop-out first as you postion your bike further from the receiver at your pc.

Likewise, we can run the receiver at your pc at full power. The Kickr operates from your wall power and can afford to blast ANT+ signals at full power. Rather, sensor makers have your best interest at heart by only reaching a very near-field range (like from your bike-mounted power sensor to your handlebars), thereby reducing power and vastly improving the sensor's internal battery life. While the ANT+ spec says it is capable of 100ft range, there is no requirement that all devices reach that range. If you encounter any problems, configure Garmin express to not load automatically when your PC starts. Uninstall it, since Garmin Express is a functional replacement, and it works better than ANT agent ever did. If you still have "ANT agent" installed, it's discontinued by Garmin themselves.

You could also and equally just install garmin express, and just launch it once, it will load the drivers, and then you can close it.
#Garmin ant agent on windows 10 update
Use windows update or the website of the manufacturers who make your equipment. By all means, never, ever visit websites that offer updates for "all of your windows drivers".
If your device came with an installation disk, use it, but let windows update maintain it, and let it be updated as needed.
#Garmin ant agent on windows 10 driver
You may see a driver from dynastream offered in windows update. When you insert the stick into your Win 7, 8 or 10 pc, the driver should load. They are made by Dynastream, wholly owned by Garmin itself. They are marked either USB-m or USB2 Stick. They look like one of the devices in the picture. You need a single 8-channel (or more) ANT+ usb adapter.
