Power zone interval during a workout defaults to 3 second power. Is this adjustable?

I created a workout in Garmin Connect with intervals using a power zone. When I did the workout, on the 830 it showed the power zone as "3s power zone."

Is this selectable/definable somewhere either on the 830 or in Garmin Connect? When I created the workout, I didn't see anywhere that indicated a time duration (1 sec, 3 sec, 10 sec, etc.) for the power measurement, so I was a bit confused what "3s" referred to when I was actually doing the workout

I found this post that seemed to suggest that it should be selectable when creating the workout in Garmin Connect, but that this "feature" was missing.

So is "3s" a non-changeable default for power intervals?

Garmin Connects defaults the workout to 3 sec average power, but on the Edge you can edit the step and use 10 or 30 sec average power.

it's annoying , if we change target power on head unit , the garmin connect workout builder should be update base on head unit

Thx, searched for a long time but never check the Edge device to adjust the power interval.
