Athena LogCard Reader

Buy Now - £37.56

The Indoor Sport Services Utility is software that allows you to manage the workout data on your Indoor Sport Services LogCard (LogCards are the smart cards that work with PM3 and PM4 monitors). With the Concept2 Utility you can backup your workout data, chart your progress, or analyse your historical performance. There is also an option to upload your workout data directly to your Online Logbook at concept2.com

If your computer is not located near your indoor rower, simply unplug the PM3/PM4 from the indoor rower, remove it from the monitor arm via the bolt on the back, and take it to your computer. When you are done using it as a card reader, return it to the indoor rower for your next workout. If you prefer not moving your PM, you can purchase a card reader for your computer (be sure to check out the device compatibility information prior to purchase).

The Indoor Sport Services Utility also has a built in updater for the monitor firmware. Each time you connect a PM unit, it will auto detect which firmware version you have currently installed and will offer an update to the latest version. You can even configure the software to download and install BETA firmware version if you would like the very latest features and you also want to be part of the testing procedure.

Warning the BETA versions are not ready for general release and may contain bugs and errors.

The Indoor Sport Services Utility is both PC and Mac compatible, and also supports use with an external card reader, which means there is no need to remove and re-attach your monitor each time you want to download a workout.
