Running dynamics not showing up after HRM Pro update

Im having this problem, after updating firmware of HRM pro last week to 8.8 when I start a run watch doesn’t automatically connect to HRM pro and even when i try to manually connect it, running dynamics are not showing up, no matter how many times I start the run or connect/disconnect hrm pro. The only solution for me is to restart the watch!!

anyone else having this problem and any solutions?

Run dynamic will be transmitted only if HRM-Pro will be connected with the watch via ANT+.
If you have Bluetooth connection it will transmit only heart rate.
Check it.
For me it works, only issue I see is that sometimes rune dynamics start to be recorded after couple seconds (up to one minute), but I had this issue with HRM-Pro on each firmware in pair with Fenix 7, never observed it with Fenix 6.

I don't know if this is related to the update or not, but during my training, the sensor sometimes turns off for a while. Yesterday, during the ultra, data for 2.5 hours out of 7 fell out.

I noticed this - but this an HRM Pro problem so you are posting in the.wrong forum. Its not a Fenix 7 issue.
