Hi,

I'm new , I download this data field , but could you provide me the procedure to use it in the race because I do not really know how.

How to setting "Single Field" to VIVOACTIVE HR ??

Use the guide here to configure the data screen: http://www8.garmin.com/manuals/webhelp/vivoactivehr/EN-US/GUID-C6CF3D4D-4671-4EAD-95D7-83F52C2B51CD.html.

The field is pretty self explanatory so I am guessing your asking how to configure it for your device? Is so, you'll need to be a little more specific about the device you need help with.

This data field is great, thanks! I have a couple of questions & request/suggestion:

1. Is it possible to add the current temperature data field (e.g. from a Tempe sensor)? Ideally this would be small text, with the clock or where the battery and GPS lock text is.

2. Is the current pace shown the same as that in the Garmin current pace data field on a normal data page? (Except for the not rounding to 5 s, obviously) What smoothing, if any, is done? Is it possible to tell if the pace is coming from GPS or a foot pod? Finally, is it possible to add a configuration option to show the pace rounded to 5 s, just like the Garmin pace?

Thanks again!

The pace field for current and average are values directly provided by the Connect IQ system, no alteration is made to them. The 5s and 10s average paces are calculated over the last time interval and the average is calculated and shown.

Single Field Config Issues

Hi,
I just installed your app on my VivoActive HR. I have issues - not sure if it's related to my inability to configure it properly.

I have 3 issues:

1. When I select data field to "Single Field" - there is only a default "HR" & "PACE" for both top and bottom. Can't change the bottom one to "Cadence" & "Distance".
2. In addition, the text appears to be 'cut off' as per pic and
3. even the 3rd 'single field' setting at bottom repeats the time and battery display.

How can I resolve them? Thanks.

The issue you are seeing is because the data field configuration needs to be set to use a single data field layout. This should only require one copy of the data field loaded. Currently it looks like you have a copy installed in the top and bottom of a three data field layout. Double check you field layout configuration.

The pace field for current and average are values directly provided by the Connect IQ system, no alteration is made to them. The 5s and 10s average paces are calculated over the last time interval and the average is calculated and shown.

Thanks, that is good to know re current and average.
Concerning the 5s and 10s, do you mean calculated from distance over time, or an average of current pace from each second? I am happy with current pace, but if like me you use a foot pod for pace (with distance from GPS), then the first method uses GPS data, which might not be what you want, whereas the second uses the foot pod.

To answer my own question about the temperature field — it turns out this is not a simple thing to do. Temperature is not available in Activity.Info, and data fields cannot use the Sensors object, therefore the only current way to do it is to write the necessary ANT code to communicate with the sensor! (Apparently this is what the Garmin temperature data field does) Several people have asked for temperature (and other data that is in Sensors.Info) to be made available in Activity.Info, let's hope Garmin follow through on that.

Single data field?

Thanks for the feedback. But I don't get your explanation fully. So how do I have the bottom field to show "Cadence | Distance"? I don't see any other options.

What about the text sizes issue?

Thanks.

Single Run field as unique screem

Hello all, can someone assist me to fix this app screen as the unique screen on Forerunner 235? I can only put it as the secondary screen, and everytime at work out, this keeps swichting from the primary screen ( that I can define in some fields ) and the secondary screen with the app..
