Reader's Letters: Using The PM3
Posted by Concept2 News on the 2nd of May 2006
Nick Lawman: I think your magazine is terrific and most informative. I wonder if you could possibly run a series of pieces about the PM3 and how to both understand the information and more importantly how to get the most out of it. We've been meaning to publish such a series of articles for a while, but unfortunately have been prevented by our endemic incompetence. Fortunately, however, the Concept2 Education Team are afflicted by the same malaise and have recently come up with the ICT Training Guide.ICT stands for Information and Communication Technology, and the Guide was originally designed to help schools use the computer side of the Indoor Rower effectively. What it mean is that the Guide is useful for anybody who wants to find out more about using the PM3. The Guide provides a step by step guide to getting the most out of your PM3 and LogCard. It includes sections on using the PM3; setting up and using the LogCard; downloading the information from the LogCard and manipulating the data (this is especially useful for schools); updating the firmware (software on the monitor) and running races between machines.The ICT Guide can be downloaded from http://www.therowingcompany.com/schools/ict_guide.php
