Fenix 5 Plus + Varia Vision + HR chart

Former Member over 6 years ago

Hi guys,

I just upgraded from my old trusty Fenix 3 to Fenix 5 Plus.

With my old Fenix 3, I used to have Edge 1000 in my back pocket so I could get Varia Vision going and showing me all the great stats and charts from my HR chest strap.

I was hoping to leave the Edge 1000 at home since I have the new Fenix.

However, I can not figure out how to display my HR as a chart in the Varia Vision. I am keen to have a field like the one I am used to see from the Edge, like the one shown on the picture.
I tried downloading the custom data fields through IQ Apps, however that data does not show up on Varia Vision, it shows only an empty field.

Any thoughts on this?
Or Fenix 5 Plus can not do charts as Edge 1000 can?

Thank you very much for your kind help. ciq.forums.garmin.com/.../1452734.jpg

Varia Vision does not support IQ data fields.

What field on the Edge are you referring to?

0 tmk2 over 6 years ago

The Edge 1000 has a built-in (i.e. non-IQ) data field called HR graph. The F5+ does not have it natively, AFAIK

i also have the vision w/ 5X and would like to customize the fields shown in vision. Are there any ways to do this? Even with the newest firmware update, there seems to be no help.
