How do I log distance on team sport activities

Hello, I've got a Fenix 7 recently upgrading from a Fenix 5. I do volleyball (which I don't wear my watch but instead have my HRM Pro Plus on) and badminton.

For Fenix 5, I'm using Cardio as my activity record, my HRM is recognized as a foot pod so it can record distance when I'm doing these sports

But when it comes to Fenix 7, even if I pair my HRM with the watch, I can't find a way to log distance or pair it as foot pod when I am logging these activities as badminton/volleyball activity, are there any settings for it? Thanks!

Did you try just to do this?
Start activity with your HRM belt paired and play?

Yes, but it doesn't log distance, it do log the heart rate data tho

Did you calibrate the HRM-Pro strap by at least 2 hours of outdoors runs using GPS?

Had done a few runs, it should be more than 2 hours

What's your setting of the HRM-Pro on F7 in Sensor & Accessories » HRM-Pro » HRM Pace & Distance ?

Use for Pace ?
Use for Distance ?
Auto Calibrate ?

You can also try resetting the calibration in that menu, and start anew.

Just to be sure - was it with the F7, or previously with the F5? You need to calibrate it on the new watch too.

Everything what trux wrote is exactly what you need to do.
1. Calibrate your HRM PRO Prus sensor during couple outside runs with GPS.
2. Set in sensor settings on your watch distance and pace to INDOOR.

After that it should work as you expect.
Of course distance will be an estimation.
