Hey guys, I would need your help. I tried to set within an activity today an alarm for the HF. I wanted the watch to alert me, if my HF does go BELOW a certain limit. So I setted a lower limit and disabled the higher limit. But after that, I received several alerts although my HF was way above the lower limit I setted. Do I misunderstand the settings somehow? THX in advance
well, there is not much I can post. I setted the lower alarm to 80 and the higher to off. I thought that way, it would give me an alert if the hf sinks below 80, but actually gave me alarms above a hr of 80bpm. but maybe I simply misinterpreted what those settings do.....
It is for the hiking app. I had the problem sometimes, that the HF sensor seems not to be able to read the HF anymore. The HF drops to 60, while the real HF was actualy above 100. A restart of the watch did help and the HF sensor was working again. So I actually wanted to have an alert, if the HF drops unusual low for that activity just to be alarmed, that there is something wrong with the HF sensor.
I know all the discussions about the wrist HF accuracy and I even use am external garmin strap for strength training and indoor workout. This dropout of the wrist hf appeared till now only during hiking and only sometimes. I was on a 12h hike, without any dropout, but had some drop outs during some shorter hikes, so it is a bit difficult to tell from where it might come from. Especially as I do not change the position of the watch on the hand and a restart gets the hf sensor going again.....so therefor I thought it would be helpful to have such an alert for testing.....
