Speed Sensor 2 activities with wrong timezone

Hi,

I have a Speed Sensor 2 on my commuter bike which is connected to my phone via Bluetooth and I observe the following problem: all recorded activities show up in GC with an (I guess) UTC timestamp. Since I live in the CEST timezone, all activities are 2 hours to early. I tried to find some setting to correct for that but not successful. Has anybody experienced the same problem?

Best,

andreas301

The data files shows a total of 288 wheel rotations at 2.17 m, which would give a distance of 624.96 m. The data file reports a distance of 625.41 m.

Not sure what the issue is. How are you measuring the 400 m distance?

To come back to the original problem: yes, my time zone is set correctly on the Web site and my Phone

I have spoken with Garmin and they have found the issue. I'm not sure how long it will take it fix. If I get an update I will let you know.

That is a different issue, but I'm told that the issues on FR945 were fixed in build 2.70.

time zone problem is bigger, also on Edge 1030 and Edge 830 indoor trainings

It is showing UTC (GMT) time or is it showing the correct time, but wrong time zone label?
