Edge 1040 ebike screen

Hi all,

I upgraded my 1040 solar to 14.50 yesterday and now the assist mode initially shows as pinkish rectangles: one for Eco, two for Trail and three for Boost. Before the upgrade I had never seen that and it had the name of the mode and assist %. If I touch and hold to edit the field it goes back to that but then I can’t go back to the rectangles unless I turn the Garmin off and back on.

Is this caused by the upgrade? Is this intentional? Is there any way to have one field with the rectangles and one with the text and assist %?

Also, is it at all possible to customize the screens beyond the number and type of fields? I wouldn’t mind having different colours for the different support modes and a graph for the assist level %. Wishful thinking, I know but it’s worth asking.

TIA

Doesn’t anyone else have this issue or is no one using it with a Shimano system?

I have a e-bike with EP8 and I can’t use the Steps screen due to a bug. Have to choose either AXS-info or STEPS and then the e-bike part loose. Reported the bug since day one and nothing happens. Works fine on 1030

What kind of bug is that? Are you connecting to an E7000 or EM800 display?

Neither, I use my Garmin as the only display paired with EN-100 junction box. Referring to the Garmin built in Steps screen and all other data fields that I can’t use because I need the AXS-data field more, and hence have turned of Shimano as a sensor

I didn’t realize you could get rid of the display. Can you turn on/off the light with the Garmin, if it was working?

Garmin is display only, but the junction box has one button, and if you press and hold for a second or two it will toggle lights. A short press changes to assist level. The junction box is an interface from Shimano that provides a BLE-interface to any device that supports it like Garmin as an alternative to a display. It is very small and it has one light to show the assist mode in different colors, one light that goes red when battery drops below (20 or 25%) and the mentioned button.

Thanks for the info. I knew the box existed but has no idea it did anything other than provide a bluetooth connection.
