Critical Bug: Elevate Optical Sensor Heart Rate is not enabling

The epix 2 pro or Fenix 7 pro watch lines have the Garmin sensor Elevate 5.  The Elevate 5 should have 6 green LEDs active during active activities when the Heart Rate sensor is enabled in CIQ applications.  The full Elevate 5 is fully enabled for Garmin Base applications, however in CIQ applications the Elevate 5 is only using 2 LEDs (i.e. low power mode).

This is occurring using either of the normal 2 methods for enabling the Heart Rate sensor, 

Sensor.enableSensorType(Sensor.SENSOR_HEARTRATE);

Sensor.enableSensorType(Sensor.SENSOR_ONBOARD_HEARTRATE);

or 

Sensor.setEnabledSensors([Sensor.SENSOR_HEARTRATE, Sensor.SENSOR_ONBOARD_HEARTRATE]);

Neither of these method will enable the High Power mode when Watch Main Menu>Sensor>Wrist Heart Rate Status set is set to Auto (ON).  

When the Watch Main Menu>Sensor>Wrist Heart Rate Status set is set to Auto(OFF). the  6 green LEDs will all enable with CIQ Applications. 

Fix requested: In full CIQ applications when using SENSOR_HEARTRATE or Sensor.SENSOR_ONBOARD_HEARTRATE  the entire elevate 5 sensor should enable in CIQ Applications.  This should occur when Wrist Heart Rate Status set is set to Auto (ON) or OFF.   

Feature request: The ability to control the low / high power(frequency) modes for the optical sensor.
