Intensity Minutes Edge 530

Hi, I have an Edge 530 and Fenix 5S Plus. I read on the forums that the Edge series cannot add intensity minutes, but on some of my rides it does add them for cycling and then others it does not. I am not capturing data on my watch so I can avoid the confusion of having two rides. Can anyone shed any light on this issue? It seems strange that sometimes I am getting minutes and other times nothing.

You don't need to broadcast HR to get IM. Just wear the watch.

The 5S+ won't import the IM from the Edge. If you just passively wear the watch while riding, it will pick up the increase in HR and give you the IM credit - you don't need to record the ride on the watch for this to happen.

if you broadcast HR from Fenix to edge then you will get IM
