Hi!
We partner our InRach Mini 2 to our Garmin Edge 1050. This is great as we use the Edge 1050 to View / Send / Receive Messages at a glance. This has worked fantastic up until a couple of weeks ago ish.
Now, app every 10 minutes while recording, the Edge 1050 drops all of it's Ant + sensors, (HR, Varia, Power) then reconnects. The disconnect lasts app 3 to 5 seconds. Meanwhile we have a Fenix 8 Dual Recording (without Inreach connected to it) and all sensors stay connected to it just fine.
Steps we have completed to troubleshoot / fix.
- Removed all old unused sensors.
- Removed all apps dowloaded from app store.
- Factory Reset (Complete Wipe) Edge 1050.
- Factory Reset InReach Mini 2
- Verifed Edge 1050 and InReach Mini 2 were up to date on software using Garmin Express.
- Verified Varia was up to date software with Garmin Express and Varia App.
- Added just one Ant+ sensor back to Edge 1050 (HR). Then added Inreach Mini 2, went for a ride, and Ant+ Sensor dropped out. Disconnected Inreach Mini 2 and Edge 1050 works fine, sensors stay connected.
Added back in and Renamed all current active sensors, 12 Ant + sensors (4 bikes with power and gears, Varia Radar, Varia Light, HR Strap, Smart Trainer). Have gone for several rides. Whenever InReach Mini 2 is connected Ant+ Sensors drop out. If we simply disconnect the InReach Mini 2, all sensors stay connected just fine.
Meanwhile, the Fenix 8 is dual recording with all sensors just fine. Note: Inreach Mini 2 is not connected to it. We'll do that and report back here later. For now, it would be great to get the Edge 1050 back to it's reliable operation as it was a couple of weeks ago.
It's 100% Repeatable. Connect my InReach mini 2 to the Edge 1050, Go for a ride, sensors drop out. Disconnect InReach Mini 2, sensors stay connected just fine.
If you have any other ideas, steps, comments, they are more than welcome.
Thanks!
Mike
