PM3 on Model C won't connect, unidentifiable error codes

Hey all,

New to board but I've used C2's for almost 10 years. I have 3 model C's and only one has a functioning PM2. I recently bought a PM3 on craigslist and tried to connect it to one of the rowers. However, everytime I plug it in and try to set it up, it begins calibrating on the erg but starts to throw up error codes that I can't seem to find a reason for in the troubleshooting section. It's frustrating. Am I missing something? Is there a special procedure that I need to follow? Please help!

Thanks in advance :)

Have you configured your PM3 for a model B/C or is it still set-up for model D/E?

Main menu --> More options --> Utilities --> LCD Contrast

Once you're on the LCD Contrast menu press [CHANGE UNITS] three times then press [CHANGE DISPLAY] three times.
That brings up the configuration menu.

I'll try that tonight and let you know. Thanks!

Just remember that you'll have to do it again if the batteries go totally flat and the super capacitor loses all of its charge.
