Are you telling there is no option BPM as as shown below, when you tap on the first option (Based On) of the HR Zone table?

With the BPM option, unlike with the other base metrics (%Max.HR, %HRR, %LTHR), you can set up a static HR Zones table, using absolute values in bpm. All the remaining options are indeed dynamic, relative…

The "BPM" option is available neither on the app, neither on the watch?

Try again. New posters cannot insert attachments, but after a post or two, you should already have the permission. Simply copy the image, and paste it into the message.

From the posts I've seen the BPM option has been removed:

Heart rate zones - no bpm option

Also for the other Fenix 7 based models:

Fenix 7 - No BPM option for Heart Rate Zones

Enduro 2 - BPM setting has been removed from HR

I also have an epix (Gen 2). As e7andy mentioned, there are now only 2 options.

What did BPM do anyway? Surely it's a dynamic measurement so how could you base a zone on it? And aren't all the other 3 options based on BPM?

With the BPM option, unlike with the other base metrics (%Max.HR, %HRR, %LTHR), you can set up a static HR Zones table, using absolute values in bpm. All the remaining options are indeed dynamic, relative to the base value (using its percentages), not absolute values.

The BPM option is still available on Instinct 2, which is of the same generation of watches as Epix 2, so I guess it was removed from Epix 2 by mistake. I recommend reporting it to the Support.
