SDK bug: ANT LightNet data not resetting when LightNet device is disconnected (last values remaining visible)

I'm using

- ANT LightNet Taillight mode

- ANT LightNet Battery

values in order to display the VARIA RTL 516 status in a datafield. The status is displayed correctly when RTL 516 device is (initially) off and then switched on. After switching the RTL 516 device off, the last values keep visible (battery level and light mode on).

There should be a reset of these values by the SDK after ANT connection timeout.

    It would be a nice feature, but don't build on it being added to the apis soon. I don't really work how ANT works on the radio level but I'm not sure it's really possible to detect disconnect, or power off... In the meanwhile if you want your app to work then you can do what I did. Or you can wait a few years. BTW I'm not sure if it's a bug at all. If things would work as you want them to work then probably other developers would complain that just because you ride your bike next to some place where because of the interference you miss a few readings it shouldn't disconnect it... So maybe leaving this decision to the developer is not that bad. Maybe the only thing needs to be done is to add a few sentences to the documentation.
