ErgData is a free application designed to run on an Apple iPhone or iPod touch. It supports Bluetooth Smart wireless connectivity for connecting the iOS device to a Concept2 Indoor Rower or SkiErg equipped with a PM5 monitor. For Concept2 Indoor Rowers and SkiErgs equipped with a PM3 or PM4, ErgData requires a connection cable (available from LiveRowing) to establish the connection. PM5 users who plan to connect wirelessly need only the Smartphone Cradle.
iOS Requirements
- Concept2 Indoor Rowers or SkiErgs equipped with a PM3, PM4 or PM5 (Important: Please review the Known Issues to ensure Performance Monitor compatibility prior to purchase.):
- PM3
- Indoor rowers—Firmware version 315 or 108 or later is required for all functions
- SkiErgs—Firmware version 708 or later is required for all functions
- PM4
- Indoor rowers—Firmware version 318 or 29 or later is required for all functions
- SkiErgs—Firmware version 709 or later is required for all functions
- PM5
- Indoor rowers—Firmware version 17 or later is required for all functions, including Bluetooth Smart wireless.
- SkiErgs—Firmware version 717 or later is required for all functions, including Bluetooth Smart wireless.
- PM3
- LiveRowing Connect Cable Required for PM3s and PM4s. While this cable will connect to a PM5, it is not required as the PM5 can connect wirelessly to an iOS device via Bluetooth.
- Smartphone Cradle
- Order part number 1098 for [prices:smartphone-cradle] (not needed if you purchase the LiveRowing Connect Cable, because it is included with the purchase; if you have a PM5 and plan to connect wirelessly, the cradle is all you need.)
Additional Requirements and Information
- ErgData will not function properly if a LogCard is in the PM3/PM4 or a USB flash drive is the PM5. Remove any LogCard or USB flash drive before using ErgData.
