I can not find "Moving Time" field

Follow bellow some Fenix 5x data fields descriptions.

Why can?t I find "Moving Time" field to put in one of my pages?
Would be related to Autopause set to ON or OFF?

Thank you,

Moving Time
The total time moving for the current activity.

Elapsed Time
The total time recorded. For example, if you start the timer and run for 10 minutes, then stop the timer for 5 minutes, then start the timer and run for 20 minutes, your elapsed time is 35 minutes.

Timer
The current time of the countdown timer

I think moving time is only calculated after the fact, but it isn't available as a built-in data field.

I wrote a Connect IQ data field which allows you to add any formula you want to your watch -- including moving time.
AppBuilder:
https://apps.garmin.com/en-US/apps/d...9b8485d2fc80#0

I don't know Garmin's exact threshold for moving, but strava considers any speed above 30:00/mile to be moving.
30:00/mile = 2 mph = 0.89408 metres/second

If you want moving time as a field, install AppBuilder and use the following settings. (Please replace square brackets with round brackets below; the forum has issues with round brackets in certain places.)
Formula: SUM[Speed_raw GT 0.89408]
Display Format: Time

Explanation:The formula is evaluated once per second. In this case, it counts the number of seconds where your speed is grear than 0.89408 m/s. The Time format displays those seconds as hours, minutes and seconds (hh:mm:ss).

Thank you very.

Only thing is that I have several Garmin?s and all of them have that field , real time. i.g. Pilot, MAP76s, Montana, Feinx1.

There are two native timer fields that come into play - Timer and Elapsed Time. Elapsed Time is how long ago you started recording, while Timer is how much time you've been recording. So with timer, if you are paused, that time isn't counted. Maybe use Timer and auto-pause? That should be close to what you want to see.

Good theory. I?ll give a try.
What is still annoying is the moving time to be at the Fenix 5x manual but this I'll write to Garmin.

Thank you very much.

FlowState - finally, a Moving Time data field on my Garmin!!! I've been looking for this for a very long time :)

I tried it today on a 4:20 total time ride and the Moving Time returned was 3:23

Compared to Garmin online's value of 3:34

And Strava's value of 3:43

So not a huge discrepancy, but different enough...

I'm guessing that the minimum moving speed value of 0.89408 has something to do with that?

Is there something special about the 0.89408 value? Can I "tune the formula" by modifying that value. Presumably, if I lower it (within limits), the Moving Time will go up as it'll recognize me as moving more often? Or is that effectively the slowest moving speed that can be registered due to Garmin or GPS limitations?

Thanks!
