Manual upload of PM5 workouts to online logbook via ErgData

Post by thacche » January 21st, 2022, 12:28 pm

Is it possible to manually upload workout data stored in the PM5 memory to the online logbook via ErgData. I'm new to BikeErg and was a happy recipient earlier this week. I have completed a number of "rides" which are stored in the memory of the PM5. I have then discovered ErgData and the online logbook. Is it possible to get ErgData to upload the existing PM5 data to upload to the online logbook? I have connected ErgData on my iPhone to the PM5 via Bluetooth but when I hit "sync" it claims "no logbooks found". If I do a "ride" with the iPhone/ErgData connected to the PM5 it can transfer that data OK, but nothing historical.

Thanks in advance.

Tony

Yes, scroll over on the erg data to the third window. You will see a sync option on the top left side.

I think you'll not be able to use ergdata to transfer the historical data on the PM5 (that's not already in Ergdata). But you can download the C2 utility to your laptop and use that to upload sessions to your log from the PM5. See here https://www.concept2.com/service/softwa ... ne-logbook

Yep, tried that but I just get "no logbooks found" as per my original message ;-)

Thanks,

Sounds promising, will take a look at the link.

I was after an easier way to do that as I want to use an app like FulGaz/Rouvy/Zwift so make the "rides" a tad more interesting, and I understand that you can only connect one app at a time to the PM5. So I was looking for an easy way to upload the data stored by the PM5 to the online logbook. Will probably just use whichever 3rd party app I choose to log data. Thanks for the help.

1. Ergdata
2. Some other phone app that links to https://log.concept2.com
3. USB stick and the C2 Utility

Pick your poison.

Some apps (like EXR for rowing) support uploading from the app to Concept2. So that might be a possibility. Otherwise you can use an USB cable to connect ErgData on your phone to the PM5, and use Bluetooth for Zwift.
