PM5 ANT+ FE-C for the RowErg

Post by kadigeN » January 17th, 2023, 4:08 pm

Hello,
Im using my PM5 and recording workouts with my Garmin Fenix 7x, it works quite good there is only one major issue. During intervall workouts (controlled by PM5) the rower will stop sending power data during the rest periods, causing the watch to hold on to the last received power value from the active intervall for the entire rest intervall, all other metrics are received correctly on the watch during rest period (stroke count and 500m timings). So i would kindly suggest to keep sending the power data during rest intervals, because they way it currently works will produce bad training load data on the garmin watch because it thinks im doing full effort during rest intervals.

I would send this request to info@concept2.com

In my experience, they are quite responsive to these points of improvement.

Hi, is there any progress with the Problem? I'm running into the same issue. By now, instead of setting a Pause in the ErgZone (or ErgData) "Rest time" in the original interval, i set an extra interval with 5 sec time and no intensity and set the "Rest time" there. The Power and SPM goes to zero and the pause is recorded correct by the Fenix. But thats only a quick an dirty fix, an an solution from c2 in the firmware would be appropriate...
