Lap distance

Former Member over 5 years ago

I called in this issue and i was told it would be looked at. I have a forerunner 45 and i cannot change the lap distance. It is stuck at 1.6k . I have changed the units to metrics. Workouts are recorded in kms. This seems like an issue that should affect a massive amount of users.

In the settings of the activity profile, turn off the auto-lap option, turn it back on, enter it and select the right distance. This is what the manual tells about setting the auto-lap distance on FR35:

On this video they unfortunatelly do not show how to change the auto-lap distance, but it must be available either by scrolling after entering the Auto Lap option, or as a separate menu option in the upper menu.

It's started to work correctly :-)

I'm not sure what fixed the problem because it was the 3rd time I turned the auto lap on and off to try and reset it. It might have been that or something else that caused it to start working again. I guess I won't know unless it happens again....

Thanks trux (I'm still waiting for Garmin to acknowledge my problem).
