Hello,

i got a Polar H9 heart rate monitor for christmas and I’m since failing to pair it to Zwift on my PC.  
Has anyone else have these problems or does anyone have a solution on how to pair the H9 to Zwift on a PC?

Thanks!

Ride on!  
Sebastian

Hi @sebastian_wagner1, does your PC have bluetooth 4.0 or do you have an Ant+ dongle?

Pair it via ZCA on your phone in the game.

@Mike_Rowe1 thanks, the old Bluetooth Version was the problem! The h9 paired perfectly with my other, newer Laptop.
