Looking for Data Field for cycling intervals training that would work on Epix Gen 2

Nail 8 days ago

I need a very simple thing that would work on Epix Gen 2:

- Time to Go (countdown timer)

- power 3s

- prescribed power of the current interval

- heart rate

- cadence

So I need only these 5 values. The standard Bike activity data fields on Epix Gen 2 don't have the countdown timer nor the prescribed power. Is there an app/data field that would solve this?

Wrong forum, maybe here: forums.garmin.com/.../app-ideas or in the epix forum

I can't help you with the interval power target, but if Epix Gen 2 is anything like my Forerunner 955, you should be able to display a native data field with countdown timer for the current interval.

On my watch if I select Data Fields > Workout Fields > Step Duration, I get a data field which dynamically changes based on the step type.

For steps with a time target, it shows the remaining time (i.e. countdown timer)

For steps with a distance target, it shows the remaining distance.

For steps defined to end with a lap press, it shows the text "until lap press".

I only tested with a run activity and workout, but the Step Duration field is also available for Bike activities.

Speaking of target power for the current interval, there’s a handful of data field apps on the store which display this (either the range or the midpoint), but none of them seem to support epix gen 2.

Maybe you could find an app you like, click Contact Developer, and ask the dev to port the app to your device.
