On the fly multisport

On my 920xt I can start a Run activity and then switch it to a Bike. When saved that will be recognised as multisport. I can't figure out how do that on my fenix 5? Any ideas?
  • You need to set up a hotkey to change sports first (in the watch configuration) and then you can use that key to switch sports
  • If I run, then do some workout or strength training, and then continue running - Can you please explain how I will set up and use the watch for this!?
  • You read post number 2 above?


    Yes of course I read, but I´m not clear how to do it, one hotkey for each sport?
  • On the fly multisport: Start first activity as normal, running in the OP's case. Once finished press stop as normal to show the usual resume, save screen. Now press and hold the down button to bring up the sports activity screen, change to whatever is the next activity, bike in the OP's case and carry on as normal. At the end save as normal and all activities are saved under one multisport activity.

    After pressing stop, then? If I press the down button, I get to the normal watch face.
  • 1) Go to your watch settings and set up a hot key to change sports (in my case, holding the start button)
    2) Start an activity as you normally would
    3) When you want to switch sports, press the hot key set up in step 1, bringing up the activity list. Choose the next activity with start button
    4) Repeat step 3 as many times as you would like
    5) At the end of the last activity, just stop it and save as usual

    You can stop an activity before switching if you'd like to. In that case just stop it, use the hotkey to bring up the activity list and choose the next one. Bear in mind that after choosing the next one in this scenario the activity remains stopped and you will need to start it manually. If you stop an activity and before switching the HR recovery notification pops in, you have to discard that before the hot key works.

    After pressing stop the screen showing resume, save, etc., comes up. Whilst on this screen press AND HOLD IN the down button to bring up the sport selection screen then carry on as normal. At the end of the final activity save as normal, and all the individual activities are saved as one multisport activity.
  • It doesn't work, I get stuck on the normal watch screen when push and hold down button. Any pre configuration need to be done? I run v8.0
