What is NK LiNK for OSX

We have released the LiNK software for transferring, viewing and exporting data files from the Training Pack versions of the SpeedCoach GPS Model 2, SpeedCoach OC 2, and SpeedCoach SUP 2

This version of LiNK for MAC/OSX is no longer actively supported and requires our Bluetooth dongle to connect which we are no longer providing with each purchase. Instead we would highly recommend using our NK LiNK Logbook app for Android or iOS which does not require any additional accessories.

Note: This program is only compatible with Mac OS X 10.11 or higher.

What can you do with LiNK for OSX?

  • Wirelessly transfer "just go" and workout interval data to Mac for viewing and storage.
  • Export data to charting and analysis programs, such as Excel, via CSV.
  • Export data to FIT file format to enable transfer to third-party websites, such as Endomondo, Strava and any FIT-compatible site. These sites enable you to view your workout or race on detailed maps, share your results with friends or coaches, and even compare your results with others.
