Hi.
I have recently purchased the Garmin 1040 solar and have noticed there is a short delay (3-5 seconds) after moving off for the device to go from pause to play.
On the Garmin 1030 plus, 830 and 530, it was pretty instant.
There somes to be an issue with the 1040 solar
I have to check my Edge 1000. I am pretty sure that there is a little bit of a start/stop delay with auto-pause/resume. Not sure how many seconds, though. Honestly, I have to wonder if this is simply a…
On the previous x30 edition, the delay may have been 1 second at most. On the 1040 it can be as much as 3-5 seconds. I also noticed that when I click start it starts the timer when I haven't set off and…
Gotcha. Also, remember that my Edge 1000 is essentially 8 year old tech, so it may not deal with auto pause/resume as well as the 1030, which is only a few years old. If your 1030 only has a fraction of…
My solutions to this problem: 1: Set timer start mode to Manual and 2: Set auto pause to When Stopped. You can start a ride before moving because the auto pause immediately stops the timer. A few metres/yards of movement will restart the timer. The better position accuracy provided by the 1040 should reduce the risk of poor satellite signals creating false movement.
The other feature of this problem is the upper limit of the allowable input range for a custom speed. Here's the timer start range. The upper limit is somewhat high! (the auto pause range is 3 to 10000).
