Questions for Owners

Hi Guys.

Those that have the F5, can you check the following.

I have a F3 and when I choose Mountain biking, it doesn't uplaod into Garmin Connect as Mountain Biking, instead it's cycling and I have to manually change it.
Is this the same with the F5.

Also I do a lot of trial running latley, I went to use Navigation > Activities > Select the previous trial run I did > Go > Select Trail Run. But there is no "Virtual Partner" which I find handy to see if I'm faster or slower for any given time.

Seems only available if I select "Run"

Is this also the same for the F5?

Cheers

Maybe you have to add the "Virtual Partner" page to the "Trail Run" activity pages.

I've just checked a brief test activity that I recorded on both my F3 and F5 and the F3 activity just shows as a standard bike activity, but the F5 has correctly been recognised mountain biking and even given a name in the format of "Location Area Mountain Biking" (whereas the F3 had "Location Area Cycling")

The problem is on the F3 it won't let you, not an option

Yes it will! It is an option.

Go to Settings > Apps > Trail Run > Data Screens; scroll down (through the screens, HR gauge and Map options) to Virtual Partner. Set status on and set the pace.
