application similar to track timer alert

I have a 935 and it does not have the track timer option. This option is useful for example if we want within an interval of 1000 performed on track to vibrate us for example every 36 to match the passage of 200 for a pace of 3min/km. When touching lap for the rest (odd interval) it should be deactivated and when touching lap again for the next 1000 it should be activated.

    I have to say that both the segment to choose for example 200 meters and the seconds to perform it 36 seconds should be configured from the same garmin to facilitate training on the track in which we are not aware of the mobile surely.

  • I have a customizable CIQ data field app which might be able to do you what you want (it's like Excel for your watch, so I would just need to figure out the formula for you to use.)

    I do have a question: why do you need to specify both the distance (200 m) and the time (36 seconds)?

    I assume that if you've already determined you want a vibe every 36 seconds, the distance is irrelevant, as you've already done the math to determine that 3 * 60 * (200 / 1000) = 36.

    The app is called Appbuilder 5.

    The following settings would display your current lap time and vibe every 36 seconds, but only on the odd intervals (1, 3, 5, 7, ...). (I realize you said "odd interval" for rest, but I'm assuming the first interval is a work interval.)

    Formula: setv(0, 3 * 60 * 200 / 1000); setv(1, laptime mod getv(0)); alert(lapcount mod 2 eq 1 and laptime gt 0 and getv(1) eq 0, 3); laptime

    Display format: Time

    If you want to be alerted on the even intervals, change "lapcount mod 2 eq 1" to "lapcount mod 2 eq 0".

    thanks for answering. the distance is important because depending on the type of series I can prefer to vibrate every 300 meters or every 500. What I am looking for is that the same application allows me to set the distance of the interval, for example 1000, the pace at which I want to go, for example 3min km and the time I want to vibrate, for example every 500 meters, ie in 1min30seconds.

    the interesting thing about the application to facilitate the work on the track would be that it would make the functions of calculators to the athlete who has just sent him the rhythms of the coach.

    the application most similar to what I am asking for is the following but with 3 differences:
    PaceBand Track - Split Times for the Track
    apps.garmin.com/.../cf5d8304-f4c5-4bdc-83d8-135c26a9d728
    in this application the rhythm is set from the mobile and not from the application.
    it does not disconnect at odd intervals
    every 100 meters the warning is changed without allowing other distances

  • the interesting thing about the application to facilitate the work on the track would be that it would make the functions of calculators to the athlete who has just sent him the rhythms of the coach.

    Why not using the already available feature of "Workouts"? You can create a workout with the desired lap lengths, and pace targets.

    this tool does not allow alerts within an interval, e.g. it vibrates every 36 seconds within the 1000 we are doing

  • With Workouts you can set the lap alerts in the way you wish - it can be every 1000m or every 200m, or whatever else distances, even irregular ones, and you can as well use time-based laps, for example every 36s, or whatever else you want.

    No me refiero a alertas de vuelta, sino a alertas dentro de la vuelta, it is possible that some garmin models allow this but the 935 does not allow this.
