I have no idea what you are asking

BUT

If you want to row your C2 and control your avatar on zwift then download PainSled on IOS and connect it to your PM5 it will ouit put power over BT that your Ipad running the zwift app can pick up

works a charm .... I struggle with rowing as I find it so boring .... but being able to chase bike riders down, draft off them, get dropped by a pelotron and have to pull the big watts to get back in the pack .... thouroughly enjoyed my row this morning

No. There is no electrical resistance on the bikeerg to control. So no erg mode etc....
59m, 5'6" 160lbs, rowing and skiing (pseudo) on the Big Island of Hawaii.

What Kini said ..... if you want Zwift to control your trainer and provide resistance you need to use a smart traininer
