1049 version 19.22 problems with connection to indoor bike

Hi,

I have a indoor bike Direto XR and after last update to version 19.22 edge 1040 solar has problem with connection to bike. Once is connected and after few seconds disconnected. And all the time the same. It is crazy that one update can destroy everything something what worked correct. I am fed up with it.

    Can you give more details? I have had connection issues between my Garmins (1040 and 530 before) and my trainers (TACX Flow & Flux) for some time and they might have got more in the last few versions. My issue is specifically with only the connection to the trainer resistance control and not the power, speed, cadence broadcast from the trainer. When the resistance control disconnects (no disconnect message) the resistance seems to continue with the last level set before the disconnect so can be too low for an up hill section or too high for a down hill. I can manually disable the trainer via the sensor control and then enable it and the control resumes until the next disconnect, might get several in an hours riding indoors..What happens with your issue?

    In my case, my Garmin disconnected, and then I lost the connection with everything: resistance control, speed, and power. Eg yesterday when the connection was lost, I rode at 420 kph :). After a few seconds, all was correct but after the next 10s the same situation.
    Reset of device nothing changed.

    You might be training too much ;-)

    Are you on 19.22? I never have disconnects if using the Tacx Training App to control the Trainer via BT but frequently if using the 1040 via ANT. Recent software versions are a little different, previously a disconnect would reduce the resistance to zero, speed would increase to 40+ while ascending an 8% slope. More recent versions seem to freeze the resistance when disconnected and does not increase / decrease in proportion to gradient change until I disable/re-enable the trainer.

    Yes, I am on 19.22. Yesterday I did training and all was ok. Today ca after 40 minutes the same situation. Edge disconnected and connected with trainers and furthermore with heart sensor also. I have a heart sensor Garmin company. I do not know how to connect the edge only via BT with trainers.
