Problem using Polar HR monitor with PM3 Version 101 firmware
Problem using Polar HR monitor with PM3 Version 101 firmware
I downloaded the latest version of the PM3 firmware so that I could use the new Row Pro 2.2 beta code, but, it doesnt seem to have support for the Polar HR monitor that I just got... I remember in previous versions seeing a little heart on the display.. that heart is gone in 101..
Is this a known issue , or am I missing something ?
thanks

I have version 97 and the pm3 acts very funky on splits.
For example when I set 4' splits on an 84' row a couple of days ago - alternating fast and slow - the pm3 gave me 4' splits during the row. But then afterwards it ended up with 16' splits, which meant nothing.
It has done this a number of times before, and basically renders the memory useless, especially when I've been depending on the memory to remember the splits.
Does anyone else have this issue, or a solution to the problem? Does the 101 update fix this issue?

I think the pm3 only handles 20 splits during a row so you had 21. If you set it for 80' then I think it would work (I might be wrong about this). Don't know about the upgrade. Haven't seen a need to upgrade mine yet.

I believe it was 20 splits for the pm2, and the pm3 is supposed to handle 30.
They should have just made it 99 splits though.
The pm2 was sooooooooooooooo much easier to use.

Is the cable from the little HR interface dongle connected to the socket on the bottom of the PM3? Reseat both 3.5mm jacks at the remote end and PM3 end of that headphone extension cable.BobD wrote:I think you are missing something, mine works fine PM3 on a Model C.
Does your Polar HR strap have a good strong battery?
