Help: Customise Training Screens

Former Member over 8 years ago

Just purchased a Fenix 5 after using Polar V800 for the last couple of years. I am struggling to configure data fields in activities.

Really appreciate any advice from experienced users. Quite possible I'm missing something obvious but not familiar with the interface.

I would like to be able to see live in activity (e.g aerobic):

Screen 1

Time of day
Calories for session

Screen 2

Current Heart Rate
Current Training Zone
Time in Current Training Zone
Time in Training Zone (ideally for all zones cumulative for that work out) e.g. Z1 5mins Z2 3mins Z3 10mins Z4 5mins Z5 3 mins

On the Polar I could set these fields in online app and download to the watch which was quite straightforward. Likely I am missing something obvious due to unfamiliarity with Garmin interface.

Thanks

I'd suggest referring to the online manual, it covers exactly how to do this in detail on p19 of the PDF version.

Thanks. Resolved. Few run through's to configure but looks good now.
