CIQ Simulator data not from real world

I making bicycle datafields for Edge.

1. I using the Simulator random data for testing, but that datas so far from real world.

For example the speed is around 3m/s that is 10-11km/ó. My grandmother biking faster that that :) 
Other part is the cadence that is around 100RPM that is much faster than normal for this "fast" speed like 10-15km/h.
The pulse is also incorrect.

ATM I see this data on my datafield: Speed: 9.3 km/h, cadence 100, heart rate 162, 0% slope - so someone have a really big healt issue :D

I understand, this random data is just for see, how the information changing, but maybe not a bad idea to make a little bit more close to life. Perhaps use the activity sport for ranges.

2. I load a .fit file for testing into the sim, the file exported from garmin connect.

It seems OK while my bike is paused. After that the cadence launch to the sky, like 142RPM sometime up to 180, I never ever made this quick, usually between 70-85RPM. It was ok till the pause.

I test the fit file with https://www.fitfileviewer.com, and the cadence is OK, 70-75RPM.

  • 1) random data isn't the way to go as it's generating data that can be used for any sport.

    2) Recoded a few of your rides on a real edge, and then copy those fit files to your machine and play them back when you want to see real data.  You probably want to set your edge for every second recording instead of "smart recording" which is the default and data is isn't recorded as often

  • 1) I know, but maybe not a big deal to make a bit more usable. 

    2) I have explore2, there is no this kind of setting. Google said: "The Edge Explore 2 automatically uses Every Second Recording and this setting cannot be changed."
    So the bug is in the simulator, not in the FIT file.
