Polar Users
If you already own a Polar chest belt and want to see your heart rate in your Performance Monitor (PM), you need to purchase the C2 Receiver & Cable. This cable/receiver plugs into the PM, picks up the transmission from your chest belt and displays your heart rate on the Performance Monitor screen. You will not be physically connected to the cable/receiver.
If you do not own any heart rate equipment and would like to use
Polar, then at a minimum you need to purchase a Polar chest belt and the Concept2 cable/receiver (Heart Interface). You can purchase a Polar chest belt from C2 or from any Polar distributor. Regardless of where you purchase the chest belt, you will need to purchase the C2 cable/receiver directly from C2.
PM4 Users
The PM4 contains an “ANT” chip for wireless communication to Suunto and ANT SPORT heart rate equipment, and also for PC-less racing and future communications with a PC.
