Remap Buttons

Yeah, I vaguely remember disabling the lap function button on the 130, all it does now is take me out to the previous menu.  On the remote, the lap button is a total waste, I don't touch it.  It would be great to be able to have it as a second configurable button.  I think anyone not using the remote is missing out, it is a difference maker for me.

What can you do on the remote that you can’t do on the Di2 buttons for example?

That's above my paygrade, I'm a mountain bike guy and I don't have any interest in using electronic shifting.  It's bad enough I have to charge the Garmin, and lights in the winter.  But I'm curious of the answer from someone that knows.

I guess I was more interested in what you could do on the remote, from the brief reading I’ve just been doing it would appear you can take a Lap, scroll up or down a page and maybe start/stop a ride?

On my Di2 I currently have them set for

Left single click- scroll page up

Left long press- stop ride

Left double click- turn on/off UT800 light

Right single click- scroll page down

Right long press- start ride

Right double click- cycle light mode.

other options are (copied from https://support.garmin.com/en-US/?faq=d1XZ957wEI6vC2m3jqIGz7 )

• Next Page
• Previous Page
• Record Lap
• Start/Stop Timer
• Turn Back Light On
• Show Map
• Show Compass
• Show Elevation Profile
• Show Lap Summary
• Show Virtual Partner

It appears your Di2 has a touch more capability than the remote.  Remote has three buttons:

• Dedicated page up/page down button operated via short vs. long press.
• One configurable button for long press vs short press.  As mentioned previously, I chose "Show Map" and "Turn Back Light On"
• The worthless lap button that just stares at you, with all its worthlessness...

So you're already getting the advantages of the remote, just with a different remote.

I asked a few cyclist whoever they use the lap button  and out of all the people I asked nobody ever uses it. I think it's a wasted but on estate I  I would like to be able to reprogram it to some other feature like toggling  scrolling screens mode.  Of course Garmin has more user data so maybe there is quite a few people using it. But still I think this button should be reprogrammable.

Totally agree this useless button should be reprogrammable at least

I appear to be in the minority here, because I find the "Lap Button" very useful and use it on all my rides usually.

When I am on a long distance event etc, I can press it at certain points and then I can use it as an odometer which I have just zeroed and then I can get the distance ridden for that "lap" which is very useful when following a route card and you need to know how close you are to the next turn etc.

Also, I use it for off the cuff distance interval training quiet a lot.

Overall, I find the three buttons ample, but I think 4 buttons would be better and if they was all programable it would be better.

Normally, I have the programable button set for the map and the elevation pages. And then between each of those 2 data pages giving me 4 data pages overall. I then know that if I select map page or elevation page, I can quickly switch to the data page I want by just scrolling one page up or down with the 3rd button.

If I am riding at night, I will change the programble button from elevation to switch the backlight on just before dark 

3866207.   And why would you want to change it to a toggling/scrolling screen, there already is one, so what would be the point off having two buttons with the same function?

How can I add my home address into the edge 530 so when I get lost I can just select navigate to home. I can't figure it out.
