I'm using the C2 utility, and find it very good - simple and reliable software that gets the job done.
I do have a couple of issues, however:
>> I would like to be able to change "lifetime meters" on the card via the utility. Currently this is only
>> possible through the erg's performance monitor.
>> I would also like to be able to delete workouts via the utility. This functionality is available on the
>> performance monitors, but not via the utility.
If these items could be considered as updates in the next utility release, that would be much appreciated.

Re: "Delete Workout" and "Update Lifetime Metres" - C2 Utili
You can't change lifetime metres that needs new function. The file structure of the logcard and *.LCB files isn't published so it isn't easy to do with a hex editor.
You can delete historic workouts from a logcard with an existing option in the Utility. Maintain Users ==> Erase Workouts.
It will need new function to allow that workout cleanup to be done with the files on a USB stick.

Re: "Delete Workout" and "Update Lifetime Metres" - C2 Utili
Thanks Citroen,
Yes, an edit of the lifetime metres would be a new function for the utility. It would be useful given that I see myself using a combination of both logcard (when I row with my crew at our studio on the studio's PM3 equipped machines) and a USB stick on my new machine (that is arriving on the 29th). Of course, one can edit lifetime metres on the performance monitors themselves, but not using the utility. I like to keep the lifetime metres accurate, as I find it motivational.
As for the erase workouts feature, it is there on the utility, but you can only erase workouts before a certain date. What would be better is if you could erase them by choosing them individually, as you can do on the monitor.
Scott at Concept 2 shared a beta release of the new utility with me, and it incorporates all the necessary basic functionality for the USB sticks.
Thanks for the feedback.
