|
The Concept2 Performance Monitors are designed such that:
• | When the Performance Monitor is not connected to RowPro, you control the Performance Monitor via its buttons. |
• | When the Performance Monitor is connected to RowPro, RowPro is in command of the Performance Monitor. HOWEVER the Performance Monitor buttons are not deactivated while RowPro is in command. This is to ensure the Performance Monitor will still work if for example your PC were to shut down while RowPro is in command of the Performance Monitor. |
This has both an upside and a downside:
• | The downside is you can upset the interworking of the Performance Monitor and RowPro if you push buttons on the Performance Monitor while it's connected to RowPro and under RowPro's command. |
• | The upside is with RowPro connected there is no need to push a single button on your Performance Monitor - RowPro will do it all for you. |
So the bottom line is, when RowPro is connected to your Performance Monitor, avoid touching any of the buttons on your Performance Monitor. One button to particularly avoid is the Menu/Back button on the Concept2 PM, as this will disconnect the PM from the session RowPro has set up on it, and you will need to restart RowPro to get it reconnected again.
There's one exception - it's OK to change your display units on the Performance Monitor from Pace to Watts to Calories while it's connected to RowPro.
