Power Guide target in a standalone data field

I can't find the power guide target (or any power guide field for that matter) in any of the available data fields to add to another data screen.

Am I missing anything ?

    • No ….. from the manual : 

      Power Guide

      You can create and use a power strategy to plan your effort on a course. Your Edge®device uses your FTP, the course elevation, and the projected time it will take you to complete the course to create a customized power guide.

      One of the most important steps in planning a successful power guide strategy is choosing your effort level. Putting a harder effort into the course will increase the power recommendations, while choosing an easier effort will reduce them(Creating a Power Guide). The primary goal of a power guide is to help you complete the course based on what is known about your ability, not to achieve a specific target time. You can adjust the effort level during your ride.

      Power guides are always associated with a course and cannot be used with workouts or segments. You can view and edit your strategy in Garmin ConnectTm and sync it with compatible Garmin® devices. This feature requires a power meter, which must be paired with your device (Pairing Your Wireless Sensors). After the devices are paired, you can customize the optional data fields (Data Fields).
  • Thanks, I did read the manual, but unless it's right in front of me and I don't see it, I don't see any mention that power-guide-related data fields are not available outside of that single power guide screen.

    The problem with the power guide screen is that the only layout available is 2 small data fields, not even a double-wide to use connectiq apps like MapDashboardMS, so it make it very impractical.

    Adding one power guide target in another screen would be sufficient for my use case, and I would settle for a single, double-wide field (with a good connectiq data field) on that screen if that was the only option.

    I don't se it from the list of available  datafields, so I suppose it's a "take it or leave it" situation....

  • Yeah, it looks like you're 100% correct.
