Data Field: Dozen Run Fields

Dozen Run, Swim, Paddle and Cycle Data Fields
After others are forcing you to pay for these applications, so I decided to make a great data field(s) and then keep them free. I'm a Software engineer, sponsored runner and run coach, I combined my engineering and running knowledge to bring you these streamline applications.

I put thousands of hours of bench and field testing these simple applications. So, consider a small donation.

Install Instructions:
This Data field needs to be added to the (specific) app within your watch to view.

This is a data field not an application and needs to be added to a single data screen within an application.
a.) Goto settings,apps,run,data screen,screen 1
b.)Set Layout to 1 Field
c.) Set Field 1 to ConnectIQ Fields, DozenRun
d.) run happy!

INSTALL ISSUES:
-"!" Issue: If you receive a "!", completely uninstall, reboot and then reinstall. The Setting file changed and the automated Garmin install is not replacing the setting file.
-Download Issue: if you have the "App requires an update before install", hard reboot your watch TWICE and install again.
-TIMER Issue: If you update/install and you see the TIMER and don't see the Dozen data field.
--The data field update or install may require a restart of watch.
--Or the data field needs added to the built-in application, again.

These are becoming a Data Field Suite, where all field are similar making it easier to read while in an activity.

The Dozen fields are intended for training, the data field works fine for speed work, track or races, but readability in these conditions maybe tougher.




IMPORTANT: If you have a Question, recommendation or problem.
Please provide as much as possible (for example the following):


1.) Watch type, Watch firmware version and ConnectIQ version.
2. programmed from Garmin Connect (phone type) or Garmin Express
3.) Which data field
4.) description of issue
5.) if its a "!" error include the error log from your watch. Connect your watch to a PC using USB cable. The error log is located x:\GARMIN\APPS\LOGS. copy the listing and paste in the post.

Description for all fields
--All watch types are support for all data fields. Coded simple to keep bugs at minimum.
-Race Prediction completely configurable for any distance. Distance is entered in meters. Enter 1%-2% longer distance to adjust for normal GPS error and better race prediction.
-Cadence either from watch, footpod or crank cadence. Color coded to provide instant readability
-Heart Rate field is configurable to several methods: calculation (default), manual entered max HR, or individual zones Color coded to provide instant readability
-Pace/Speed is a rolling average to give a smooth reading configurable from 1 second to 120 seconds (Metric or statute by user setting)
-Distance is the total distance for the activity (Metric or statute by user setting)
-Timer is the actual time of the active time. Not Elapsed time.
- Battery meter uses the entire screen for reliability and acts as a divide to help focus one the upper fields.
-Avg Pace\Speed is a Garmin's provided datafield. (Metric or statute by user setting)
-Calories is the activity calories.
-Elevation based on Garmin's values. (Metric or statute by user setting)
-Time of day either in 12hr or 24 hour (based on user setting)
-(Fenix3/920)Auto background color Black or White background based on app settings
-(230/235) Configurable background color Black or White background (user configuration)
-GPS uses same indicator as iPhone for GPS signal. 5=full, 4=usable, 3=poor, 2=unused, 1= last location & 0 = no GPS
-Blue Tooth connectivity is shown as a blue "B"
-Paddle Stroke distance is a calculated by actual speed / cadence. Displayed in Meters/Feet.

  • >What watch are you asking for?
    I?m using F5X.

    >Lack of memory space is limiting the available functionality
    Even for F5X?

    At some point in time you may have to consider to freeze development of new functionality for watches with memory limitations or inabilities to upgrade to new IQ versions.

    This is just a suggestion. I can live with existing font size if its only me.
    Your data fields are still the best! (I am using Cycling and Walk, sometimes also Run)
  • Hi, since upgrading to version 1.0, i am having issues using Dozen Walk. On startup of the Walk app, i receive a screen with just IQ !. I've tried the usual uninstall, reboot, reinstall etc but still the same error

    Fenix 3 HR - Firmware 4.30 and also 4.32(beta) - CIQ 1.4.2

    CIQ_LOG.TXT shows the following :-

    ERROR: Too Many Arguments Error
    DETAILS: Failed invoking <symbol>
    STORE_ID: e2ad0aa2335d4122888dce4305ca5a9a
    CALLSTACK:
    @PC = 0x00000000
    @PC = 0x00000000
    @PC = 0x00000000

    Any ideas what could be causing this? Would love to get it resolved as this is such an excellent data field
  • moestboe For the Dozen suite, the separation you mention is already done, however and I can upgrade newer watches without changes to the older IQ watches.
    Sgt_Stress v1.0.1 corrects the Fenix 3 issue. thanks for the heads up.

    I am using Dozen Walk datafield on my Fenix 5 X but after the latest Firmware it doesn?t work anymore. I tried to re-install the datafield en restart the watch but it won?t work. The error is the IQ! Symbole. Is there a solution
    thanks
  • Yes, i updated the dozen walk datafield today to correct the issue with Fenix5 family, FR935 , D2 Charlie and approach.

    With Fenix 5 (software 6.0) and Dozen Walk 1.0.2, the background is always black. Neither watch, nor app setting is obeyed.

    corrected with v1.0.3
  • Thanks for fixing it so quickly, much appreciated
  • I am new in this. If there is a update, will my Fenix 5 knows about this for this app?
  • Yes, Garmin Express will update automatically, and Connect App will show an update is available.
