There are a few places in the code where we have different calls depending on whether it's compiling on a Windows machine or Linux. There's only a couple of these but they will need to be changed. Given that Mac OS X is a BSD derivative that should be an easy(ish) step. The Qt library that provides ...

PS Just in case more than one person decides to try this program out, I've quickly put up a forum at: http://www.rowing.nicklin.name/forum/ If you have any specific questions about how the code works, problems compiling, features you need, bugs etc probably best to post there. I'll do my best to hel...

Hi Ed, This mini-project got shelved towards the end of last year when my son was born - free time became a luxury. The interface into the PM3/4 was working fine and the basic display does what you'd expect, but I was getting bogged down in the database link - a lot of work went into trying to decid...

Thanks, but I think the commands are documented in the Interface Defintion so it's just a case of getting my head around the 'long' format commands. Doesn't look that difficult.

The code is nearly there (see below). Most of the time is being spent getting the UI/logging/database modules in place so the foundations at least exist. http://www.rowing.nicklin.name/RowTrainer.jpg In a couple of weeks I think the code will be ready for a 0.1 version. Then I release the SVN detail...

I've managed to write the code that does a similar job to what johroo reported - basically checks for a connected PM3 USB device, probes for some basic info (firmware version etc), then collects 20 samples of the time and distance of a JustRow session. The sample time was deliberately set to one sec...

Rowing software on Linux?

I'm trying to run Linux as our main OS, but I have to keep Windows Vista as a dual-boot option so I can run RowPro. I've taken an afternoon to see if there's any options for a Linux solution and there doesn't appear to be much out there for a PM3 (or above) rower. From what I've found on the web the...

Hi johroo,

Can you post or send me the code you used to get this dump? I'm looking into using libusb or libhid to hook up a PM3 rower to a Linux box (debian etch).

Thanks,

Steve
