Just to clear this point, Why do we want to delete all data channels and preserve active the MCL connection?, it is because the health device doesnt want to send any data but it still may want to send synchronization commands (CSP). > > > > > > > > dict GetDataChannelStatus() > > > > > > > > Return a dictionary with all the data channels that can be used > > > > to send data right now.
