Need help figuring out iOS apps and also heart rate etc.

Post by Joebarbs » June 5th, 2016, 10:00 am

I just received my C2 model D with PM5 firmware 22.

I've use this same model at the gym for a while and at the gym I never used a heart rate monitor but I have used ergdata app which has been great for uploading to the C2 online log book.

The confusion I'm having at home is I have the following apps:
Ergdata (for uploading workout to C2 log)
LiveRowing (for workouts to follow)
Polar Beat (with my H7 Bluetooth polar heart rate monitor)

My first time using my C2 at home I had my H7 heart rate monitor connected to iPhone with the polar bear app (I love this app to track calories burned). Then I tried to link my H7 to the C2 rower and the rower couldn't find it. I then tried a test and unlinked H7 from polar beat app, and then tried to link to C2. At that point the C2 found the H7. Is there no way to have the H7 linked to both the app and the rower at the same time?

Then my other question has to do with using liverowing app and getting that info uploaded to C2. Do people run ergdata in tandem with liverowing in order to accomplish this task?

Thanks for any help or advice in advance! Would love to hear how other folks who love tech are using all this stuff with their rowers. Just feeling a little confused at the moment on how to make all this work.

Thanks!!

Hi Joebarbs, re your other question, I asked the same thing to LiveRowing directly and they have now confirmed that their app supports the C2 logbook natively.

Regards,
Chris

Chris you can upload to C2 Logbook from LiveRowing. We would not recommend running the two apps at the same time.

Hi Nick, I think you intended that for Joebarbs, sine I said LiveRowing supports the logbook in my reply.
