From the G2 clock how do I print my pigeon arrivals from training or from a race direct from my computer and also how do I update the firmware of my G2 Clock to the latest available version?
Before you can print from your G2 clock or update your G2 clock firmware you need to have the print / update cable, that will allow the connection of the G2 to the computer. Download, install and run the Print Manager and the Update G2 program, which is available from Benzing website.

Can I assign my pigeon electronic rings without having to do it through PideXX software on the computer and the need for a Clubsystem?
If you have a Benzing M1, M2 or M3 clock then yes you can assign your own rings using the loft antenna pad. You can not do this with the G2 clock. With the M2 and M3 touch-screen it is very easy to do as it brings up the QWERTY keys on its screen.

Can I connect my clock to give me notifications of the pigeon arrivals to my mobile phone and how do I continue to time the pigeons at the loft when I need to take my clock to the club?
You will need to have a Smarthub connected at the loft to allow you to link via the App to your phone. The Smarthub will continue timing the pigeon arrivals when the clock is removed. The Smarthub connects with all Benzing clocks M1, M2, M3 and G2.
