Stress test

Former Member over 8 years ago

Hi, when I had a F3HR the stress test showed value 50-90 points , but when I switched to F5 it shows 1-13 points. It is very strange because I don't fell excellent - I use it since 8 days .
Does anybody know why there is so huge difference?

In my tests (4 till now) I always got the value "1". It's impossible!
Software version: Beta 2.9

Same for me on fenix 5x. 4 days always 1. And I must use strap

Same. Always 1.

Working fine here for me, had values from 29 to 60 over the last week (using HRM RUN strap).

Maybe you guys are just too laid back? :cool:

I'm using 5x and HRM run (the older one) and it seems that I get only valid reading if I put water on the band before test. If it is dry (and the skin as well) it seems to connect and measure something (no error message) but shows only values of 1.

During activities I never bothered because of sweating everything is fine after a couple of minutes.

I'm not 100% sure, but that might be worth a try?

Good thinking - I always wet the contact areas of the band before I wear it when doing the stress test.
