The Tacx Ironman Smart T2060 is supported for use with Zwift, so congrats on acquiring that new smart trainer!
According to the information on Tacx’s website, the set up of the Ironman trainer enables an easy, automatic calibration process to ensure high accuracy.
The Tacx Ironman Smart is also compatible with the Tacx Utility App and you’ll want to download that for firmware updates and/or calibration (if available). Just make sure you close the Tacx App before using Zwift.
Well I been speaking to Tacx support because I cannot get my ipad to talk to the trainer. Turns out I have a Tacx t2021 Genius. They saying its an older model that only works with ANT+ and windows. And the brake unit only works with ANT+ and Antenna T2028.
Does anyone know if Zwift will work with an ipad? Is there an adapter I can buy to get it to talk to the trainer? I have the Antenna T2028.
If not I guess I will have to figure out a windows setup.
I don’t mind using the Tacx software on a windows laptop just to upgrade firmware but I would like to use the trainer mainly on Zwift for courses and maps, and group rides etc
Paul I got the cable. Still can’t see my trainer. I’m starting to think I’m stuck with a windows laptop. Very frustrated. Feel like I am never going to get this going. I bought the big ipad specifically for riding now probably need to load it on windows
Hey Bob, from looking into it seems that specific trainer just won’t be able to work with Zwift without actual hardware upgrades. You can talk with TacX about these specific upgrades, or you can check out this guide to use any trainer to connect to Zwift (with a speed sensor or power meter). However you’ll have to use Zpower which does not give an accurate estimation of wattage. It’s more like a preview on how Zwift could work if it were compatible with your trainer.
If Zwift gives you any additional trouble feel free to send us a support ticket as well!
