ErgData iOS Bluetooth Disconnecting

Post by WDE46 » March 15th, 2023, 12:17 am

My girlfriend and I share an erg with PM5 and both use either ErgData or Asensei for our workouts. I use a Polar H9 HRM as well, usually connected with bluetooth, though the problem still occurs when I use ANT+. Both of our iOS devices (iPad and iPhone) will randomly lose connection with the PM5 during workouts. I also lose HRM data at the same time.

We've encountered this problem even when making sure all erg related apps are closed on BOTH devices except the one app/device being used. I remove the battery from the PM5 to shut it off/reset before connecting. Still happens. I've even shut off the bluetooth on her iPad while I'm rowing using my phone and it still drops the connection.

A weird symptom is that if I press the menu button and go to the connect screen, it still appears connected. If I press to disconnect and then attempt to reconnect it instantly "reconnects" though it is definitely not connected.

Anyway this really ruins the Asensei app experience. I originally thought it was an Ansensei problem until I did several steady state rows with Ergdata and it still disconnected.
