How does 1040 ascribe Intensity Minutes?

Anyone knows how 1040 ascribes IM and if it can be changed?

I’ve been using my Venu3 watch (paired with a HR strap) for registering IM for a while. Works perfectly. Also, it very transparent: Z3 minutes are counted as moderate IM, minutes in Z4 and above as vigorous. This is the default setting on Venu3 but it can be changed. 

Recently I added an Edge 1040 to replace my 530 - and IM is now crazy high. I get several hundred IM from an easy Z2 ride. 1040 doesn’t seem to have a setting for controlling IM moderate/vigorous and I can’t find any info on how 1040 defines them. And yes - my HR zones are set up correctly. 

Any idea as to what 1040 considers an IM? Or if it can be changed - or simply turned off?
