Is it possible to see actual map when I am doing indoor training?

kbaigio — Tue, 01 Sep 2026 11:39:10 GMT

I want to re-ride a course—whether it's one I've previously ridden, downloaded, or created—on my indoor trainer (Wahoo KICKR).

While doing this, can I see the actual map showing my virtual location? I am not referring to the elevation profile; I want to see the real map.

I used to be able to do this with my Fenix 6, but since I upgraded to the Fenix 8, this feature is no longer supported. Does the Garmin Edge do this?

So it only happens with Sync's between the 530 and your Phone? If so, have you tried un-pairing from both sides and then re-pair them? I also noticed from the trace-back, it says your 530 is running 9.75 firmware, that's a couple of revisions out of date, there was a 9.79 and the latest/last update for a 530 is 9.81, so you might also try the firmware update via the Garmin Express connection.

Hello,

My Edge 530 was working fine this week, until last Connect update at 19.08. After that, EVERY synchronization triggered in Garmin Connect is ending with hard reboot of the device. Synchronization via Garmin Express works fine.

RE: Is it possible to see actual map when I am doing indoor training?

L.Rouge — Tue, 08 Sep 2026 09:15:49 GMT

You are testing my memory, I had a 520 (still have it somewhere) and really liked that device but can't recall if I ever did Indoor rides with it and what it showed while doing that ride, look up the garmin help / owners manual on;line for the 520

Later I had a 530 and it certainly showed the map screen etc for indoor rides

Also look at / search on the archived 520 forum, Edge 520/520 Plus

My android phone shows the Edge 530 is connected but Connect IQ is not connected

ABinHRNC — Sun, 06 Sep 2026 19:32:49 GMT

I have a Samsung Galaxy S21 phone connected to my Edge 530.
Recently the Windfield App stopped displaying the windspeed.

I am trying to delete and reinstall the Windfield app. The Connect app on my phone shows that the Edge is connected but Connect IQ shows the edge as "Not Connected".

I have deleted and reinstalled both Connect and Connect IQ on the phone. I have restarted both the phone and the Edge. I have unpaired the Edge from my phone and re-paired it.

Any ideas on how to solve this problem?

RE: Is it possible to see actual map when I am doing indoor training?

L.Rouge — Thu, 03 Sep 2026 09:04:09 GMT

Yes, using the indoor profile on the edge and a loaded course you will see your virtual position on the map and your position on the elevation profile, it all works very well

RE: Avg Power to weight (w/kg) fields not supported in Extended Display mode?

Luko79 — Wed, 26 Aug 2026 04:48:42 GMT

i think these datafields are not supported by x30 family (as i see, even the x40 or x50 family neither), it is only on E3/ Fenix 8 series. (not on Forerunner 965/970 neither)

so dont use these datafields (honestly , i am training with power since 15years but i NEVER used such a datafields for training :) )

Avg Power to weight (w/kg) fields not supported in Extended Display mode?

sbrumley — Tue, 25 Aug 2026 15:55:17 GMT

I use an Enduro 3 to record activities, and sometimes (for indoor rides) I use an Edge 530 in Extended Display mode. I can display "Power to Weight" on the Edge screen just fine, but if I add "Lap Power to Weight", or "Average Power to Weight" to the data screens, Edge says "Not Supported". These aren't custom data fields, they are ordinary "out of the box" fields. Any idea what the limitation is or if there is a workaround?

Edge530map not showing

Kirkcaldykayaker — Sat, 22 Aug 2026 11:00:25 GMT

I have recently noticed my garmin edge 530 no longer shows the base map below my route (i.e I am following a red line). The help desk have been useless asked 2 questions then offered a refurbished unit at a cost. I followed up with another couple of questions, but they are not replying to these. The device is only 3 year old and obviously out of warranty.

Everything seems to be up to date. The help desk asked me to go to "map manager" which I could not see in the system menu on the device. I have found another folder map visibility in the profile folders.

Can anyone help?

RE: Edge530map not showing

Kirkcaldykayaker — Sat, 22 Aug 2026 22:24:01 GMT

I should have posted here earlier. I managed to resolve the issue myself after searching through the internet and various forums for similar issues. I resolved by continually updating the device and maps even when Garmin express said the device was up to date each time rebooting the device. After 8 or more times it resolved the problem.

RE: Edge530map not showing

PeterK_55 — Sat, 22 Aug 2026 22:13:39 GMT

There isn’t a map manager function on a 530. Any Garmin supplied maps can only be managed using Garmin Express.

You can check what is installed on your device under Menu>Settings>[your Activity Profile]>Navigation>Map>Map Info. Make sure that a routable map is enabled. Note that each activity profile can have different maps enabled.

RE: GoPro mount slippage

ewarnerusa — Wed, 19 Aug 2026 12:39:32 GMT

I use a GoPro adapter mount for my handlebar light. It can struggle with slippage as well, but usually I can crank it down finger tight enough that it stops. But one thing that does help is that there is a Phillips head screw inside the finger screw, so I can get things even tighter when I use a screwdriver.

GoPro mount slippage

nwild — Sun, 16 Aug 2026 12:27:49 GMT

I mounted a Cycliq Fly12 Sport camera under my Garmin out front mount. My 520+ computer mounts on top. The camera is mounted to a GoPro adapter underneath. The problem is that the camera pivots up and down no matter how tight I tighten the mounting screw. There needs to be some type of friction on the tangs. Anyone have any ideas, or a mount that will not allow the camera to move up and down?

Edge 530 stopped recording GPS coordinates mid-ride (FIT file missing location data)

Z_Dumi — Fri, 07 Aug 2026 08:06:12 GMT

Hi everyone,

I encountered an issue with my Garmin Edge 530 (Firmware 9.81) during a recent outdoor ride and could use some advice or insights on why this happened.

Setup & Sensors used:

*.FIT No Coordinates

Route

Garmin Edge 530
HRM-Pro+ Heart Rate Monitor
Power2Max Power Meter
Garmin SPD06 Speed Sensor

The Issue: During a ~100 km outdoor ride, the Edge 530 recorded all sensor metrics flawlessly (Power, HR, Cadence, Speed, Temperature, and custom FIT developer fields/alphaHRV). However, when exporting the FIT file, no GPS/position data (Lat/Lon coordinates) was recorded for the activity.

Because the GPS stream is missing from the FIT file, uploading directly to Strava results in broken moving time/elevation metrics and missing segment matches.

Questions for the community:

What could cause the Edge 530 to silently drop/stop recording GPS data mid-ride or fail to log coordinates while continuing to record all external ANT+/BLE sensors normally?
Has anyone experienced this behavior on FW 9.81, and is there any known fix or preventive step (e.g., hard reset, specific GPS setting adjustments)?
Is there a recommended way to recover/merge the missing GPS track directly within the FIT structure without distorting the original timeline and sensor data?

Any tips or troubleshooting steps would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance,

Dumitru

My activity is not displayed properly and not uploading to garmin connect from my edge 530.

See below image from summary page from history: it says error on both sides.

I'm adding also the corrupted file. Please let me know if it is possible to recover the file.

Most activity issues can be resolved with FIT File Viewer. I tested your file, and it did fix the problem, allowing it to be imported into Garmin Connect. However, I’m not sure if the data matches what you expect, especially compared to your photo of the Edge 530.

Thanks for the post 1929445 . Please try uploading your activity manually using the following steps: How to Manually Upload Activities to Garmin Connect

With the latest software update, the error reappears when you select "back to the start."

You need to deselect the most popular routes.

Transfer activity profile from another device and user account?

6239950 — Tue, 14 Jul 2026 09:55:45 GMT

My wife has a new edge 530.
Can I copy my acivity profile from my 1040 to save all the faff!

RE: Transfer activity profile from another device and user account?

Garmin - KS — Wed, 15 Jul 2026 20:25:19 GMT

6239950 The steps provided by aweatherall are correct. If the Edge 530 hasn't gone through the initial setup yet, then you could transfer the activity profiles using the Garmin Connect app as described here: Simple Setup on Compatible Edge Devices

However, Simple Setup is only available on the Edge 530 during the initial setup and cannot be accessed again once you have completed the pairing process in the Garmin Connect app. In that case, you would need to manually transfer the profile via USB by following these steps:

Connect the Edge 1040 to your computer.
Go to Garmin > Sports and located the profile file (e.g., Mountain.fit).
Unplug the 1040 and plug int he Edge 530.
Copy the file into the Garmin > NewFiles folder on the 530.
Safely disconnect the device from the computer.

You can. The initial set-up process may offer that as part of the onboarding process.

You can also do it manually Take the connects of the Edge 530 Garmin\Sports folder and place those files in the Edge 1050 Garmin\NewFiles folder.

Course downloads fail over wifi but other transfers work

Sliced7014 — Thu, 14 May 2026 19:06:12 GMT

Recently my Edge 530 has become unable to download courses over wifi. However uploading completed activities and downloading custom workouts works correctly so it's not a general connectivity problem. I should mention that I'm only able to use wifi (I don't have a smart phone).

I've tried removing all courses from the device but that didn't help. The only way I'm able to transfer courses currently is by connecting to a PC via USB.

Is it possible that there's a corrupt course stuck in the queue somewhere? Something else perhaps? What can I do to fix this?

Thanks for any help.
