Ergdata additional fields

Post by mickyduck » March 31st, 2018, 9:41 am

Hi, been using ergdata for over a year now and almost always just leave it on the default screen. Last few rows i have "scrolled left" so I can see the additional fields, drive speed, drive length and peak force are entertaining to me as a distraction.. is this data recorded in Ergdata / C2 logbook anywhere.. cannot see it anywhere obvious in the log. The other fields on that screen are Drag factor, stroke count and average force which are displayed in my log.

Hi use ergdats too.... extra info.
I use watts and force graph on pm. Pace on phone.
Stroke count useful ( not that succesful) to get stroke rate. Can't work out ...yet... how to use av. Force.
Is there a personal optimum stroke length... and info accessible in log book

Try a long finger press on one of the boxes and it will let you choose what gets displayed.

Thanks for the reply but I have no problems with displaying the data, I was asking if its recorded in my logbook?

Ergdata leaves these extra pieces behind in my log book
  • Average Watts 108
  • Calories Per Hour 670
  • Stroke Rate 22
  • Stroke Count 184
  • Drag Factor 98
With distance rowed divided by stroke count you can get average drive length.

If you want to log the extra fields, you should try painsled. No real time display, but everything is saved in the session file. Easiest way to analyze it is using https://rowsandall.com.

DPS or distance per stroke is useful information.

This is simply derived from the total distance divided by the total number of strokes.

The higher the number the better your performance.

Sorry to revive this but I can't find an answer to my question of whether with ErgData on Android it is possible for it to record drag factor. When I compare logbooks with people on iOS they seem to have drag factor recorded but it doesn't appear on my log, just:

Average Watts
Calories Per Hour
Stroke Rate
Stroke Count

Anyone know how to get ErgData to record drag factor on Android? I really love working out with ErgData - I use it every time - but this one thing would make it perfect.

Workaround: immediately after WO edit logbk record to add the df you used to comments.

Ergdata records drag for my rows programmed time or programmed distance rows. Not sure what it does for "just row" as I never use that.

Thanks jackarabit - I do this every time right now anyway to keep track and never use just row so I guess it must just be a limitation on Android, unless there is anyone out there on Android who has solved it.

Are you programming a workout or doing a "just row"?
