Hi folks,
In PM3CommandsCP.h which comes with SDK there are set of functions responsible for setup/serve/track racing setups.
Fuctions like
Code: Select all
PM3CSAFE_API ERRCODE_T tkcmdsetCSAFE_set_race_participant(UINT16_T unit_address,
UINT16_T racer_id, INT8_T * racer_name_ptr);
etc.
Is it public API? And if yes, is any of documentation available somewhere?
Thanks in advance!

It's never been publicly documented.
Get a couple of PM4s or PM5s (which support USB racing). Get a copy of the Venue Racing Software and a copy of Wireshark (which now includes USB capture). Sniff some packets off the wire and you should be able to see how the venue racing works. You may need another ergo and another willing warm body to row it.

Do you know if a Model D and a SkiErg could be paired in this way? Both have PM5.

I've never bumped into a SkiErg, but it's worth a try. You can run one person races with two PM4s or PM5s. But the minimal config is two rowers/skiers because the software can't handle running a time trial.

Sounds like excellent hacker task
Just wondering why it is not documented at all.
