Odd RowPro Behavior

Today I was doing a C2 Workout of the Day which I set up on ErgData. I had RowPro set to “Just Row” so I would have something else to look at, and just about midway through the workout I noticed that the rower in the boat had quit rowing! He started out OK, but then just stopped. Even odder, his oars were dead in the water yet the boat continued to move at the proper speed. That was too weird so during a rest period I closed RowPro entirely but when I did, that ended the PM5/ErgData workout, which I totally didn’t expect, causing me to have to start the workout all over again. Is this normal? Should ending a workout on RowPro also end it on the PM5/ErgData? On the second go-round I didn’t use RowPro at all and completed the WOD with just ErgData & PM5 without any issues.

Occasionally I have noticed that sometimes at the beginning of a workout, RowPro will not sync with the PM5/ErgData at all. When that happens, I end the workout, close RowPro and restart and that seems to get things back in sync. I really like RowPro. I enjoy setting up races competing against my previous best as well as a pace boat but the program is a bit flaky at times.

After the workout my CoosPo HM monitor arrived in the mail. I’m hoping that doesn’t confuse RowPro even more.

The RowPro race server dropped you or there was an internet connection problem during the row.
