IPad and Omnikey/First Beat Athlete

Post by billwright »

I'm thinking of buying an IPad but the lack of USB is putting me off. I understand that by using the Apple photo loader adaptor, a USB bolt on can be read (in some cases) although Apple didn't want this and don't offer any support.

So, the questions are:

1. Has anyone managed to use the C2 Utility/Omnikey to load up up their log card to their Ipad?
2. Does anyone use FBA with the T6c watch or similar on their IPad?

Any other advice welcome.

Thanks

If the omnikey thing is that USB gadget to read C2 logcards, then yes I've used one with a PC without problems.

FBA is a Windows only programme. I'm pretty sure it won't run on an iPad. There is no version for Mac OS.
