Mounting an iPad or external Monitor
My apologies if I am in the wrong thread. I have searched through page after page and found nothing on this topic. I want to mount my iPad or laptop or external monitor for use with the rower. I see plenty of videos with similar installations but can find nothing on any accessories pages. I have email people that have posted videos but nobody seems interested in replying. Grateful if anyone out there has a stand or a mount that attachers directly or to be honest any link or suggestions of where I could find information. I have cables all over the gym floor connecting my Concept2 to the wall TV at the moment and I want to sort all of this out. Hope one of you can help.

For an Apple device you'll need the special USB to Apple connector and a copy of the ergdata app.
For a laptop you'll need the stock USB-A to USB-B cable and a copy of RowPro.

Ipad location dictated by very short ErgData umbilicus! A very quick and dirty install of a large gate or strap hinge with a set srew in the knuckle as a stop and a bungee to a button on the back to allow folding against the hollow beam of the rower and securing winged out for viewing. The black ipad case is cheap Poetic brand about 7 USD Amazon. No end to elaborate ipad and monitor mounts of the articulated arm and monopod sort which could be used but generally very expensive. Have other pix but trouble loading today. GIves the basic idea. I also have a booklight on the PM, HR watch on a bike bar mount in the center of the handle; logcard ipad 4 adaptor etc. on a strip of Velcro on the monitor arm. Jack

Re: Mounting an iPad or external Monitor
Maybe I did not make myself clear. It is the physical mount I am after. I know how to connect the devices together. I'm looking for something like a swing arm that can be attached to the C2. Hoping that someone out there says "here's mine, I got it from ....."

I just used a couple of cable ties and an iPad case.
