« Product Overview |
 |
 |
 |
 |
Tacx Trainer software turns your training into an exciting experience. How would you like to take on twenty other riders for instance? You will see them as cycling figurines on your display, just like your own position. You will also be able to clearly read distance covered, distance left till end of ride and heart rate zone. But there is more that meets the eye. Next to your speed you will see an histogram showing the distribution of power between your left and right leg. Set up is easy as pie, pop-ups help you work through the menus.
Combination screens.
Operation has been simplified. You can now switch very quickly between the different on-screen possibilities. You will determine your preferred training set up. Set up the wide screen or combine several small format screens. Like showing Real Life Video, Google Earth and rider positions in one single screen. This way you can see exactly where you are and how far you have left to go.
Direct link with VR site.
The Analyser software is integrated in the start up menus and conects your trainer software in direct link to the tacx hompage. This is very convenient for the up- and downloading of GPS rides. Because web site and software communicate Tacx Trainer software is extremely user friendly. The menus have been programmed such that they can serve as the basis for future extensions.
The Tacx Trainer software is sold with Catalyst, Catalyst 3D, a Real Life Video demo so you can experience first hand what it’s like to ride inside film and Real Life training, to help you explore itineraries you would never have been able to ride on thru 3D maps by Google Earth.
Included software:
Catalyst
Power, heart rate or incline. Thanks to the Catalyst training program, measuring means knowledge. Conduct professional fitness tests. When we were developing this software we have paid special attention to colours, functionality and clarity. The training programs can be read from a distance. You can write your own programs or copy them through the web site.
Catalyst 3D
A training program is transformed into a virtual course with the camera following the rider from behind. If it’s a fitness training program the road will be straight. If it’s a training on a GPS-ride (a real existing ride) you will also encounter corners while you are riding. A virtual figurine personifies your position. This way a boring work out turns into a fun experience.
Real Life Video, Alpine Classic
New Real Life Video software, complete with a 6 km demo from the Alpine Classic. You can of course play the ErgoVideos inside the menus.
Starting this year the Real Life Videos are also available in wide screen, meaning that, with the help of your Virtual Reality steering frame, you can explore the course even more. You can veer left or right. This makes the experience of riding in the film even more dynamic.
Real Life Training
Doing your ride outside, and then repeating that ride inside your home. The possibilities have become Unlimited thanks to GPS. On top of that, with the 3D maps by Google Earth, you can ride on courses that you would never be able to otherwise. The course is indicated in colour on the GPS-map. A different colour is used to show you what you have already covered and what is still left ahead of you. You can also see your opponents on this. And you can easily zoom in on your own position by using the interface.
The excitement on your screen.
If you purchase the Trainer software that is also suited for the Tacx Fortius Multiplayer, Fortius or i-Magic VR trainer, you will have the new advanced menus at your disposal.
