About

The Rowing DashBoard is a data field tailored for rowing. It displays 4 essential variables: strokes/min, pace/500m, stroke length and heart rate (if HRM is present) in one single data field. It does not require any sensor to measure strokes/min. The strokes/min is evaluated simply through analysis of the speed variation. The method returns the exact stroke if the stroke has been relatively stable during the last 5 strokes. My preferred display setting consists of 2 layouts: layout 1 with field 1 on 'rowing dashboard', field 2 on 'time of day' and field 3 on 'total distance'. Layout 2 is set with field 1 on 'rowing dashboard', field 2 on 'lap time' and field 3 on 'lap distance'. The purpose of this 4 data in one field, is to overcome the limitation of the Garmin devices. This limit is a total of 2 customized fields, including those present in other layouts. But indeed, it penalizes the font size. Version 2.0: Vastly improved stroke calculation Version 2.1: Minimized label to improve visibility on fenix and vivoactive Version 2.2: Available for EPIX Version 2.3: Available for Forerunner 230 and 235 Note for Forerunner and Epix users: have a look at the new app "Rowing Cockpit" which contains all Dashboard features and with a lot more... And much more readable. For installing: 1) please look at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fCIM3qyUGzk 2) make certain you have a compatible garmin device connected to your computer 3) use https://connect.garmin.com with your account
