This article describes connecting and disconnecting the ErgZone app from the Assault Runner ergometers equipped with Bluetooth & FMTS.

Troubleshooting

Make sure your Assault Runner is NOT paired with your phone or tablet.

Some Assault Fitness monitors only make the Bluetooth available for a few seconds and then turn the Bluetooth off.

To verify your monitor is ready for connections, ensure the device ID is displayed on the Assault Runner.

Assault Runner Pro is compatible with the ErgZone app.

Not all Assault Runner Elite devices are compatible with the ErgZone app.

Our team continuously contacts Assault Fitness to gain a deeper understanding of the differences between the devices and resolve this issue.

Disconnecting

We recommend disconnecting the ErgZone app from the monitor whenever an athlete uses an erg shared with others, such as at gyms, studios, or an erg room, or even if you share it with another family member. This will ensure their device does not prevent other devices from connecting to that ergometer.

Force Close the App

When the ErgZone app is force closed, it automatically disconnects from any erg.
