Firmware V6 Strangeness

In the middle of a ride, with V6, a message popped up saying that my speed sensor and my HR sensor were found. They were connected when I started my ride and looking thru my data it appears that they did ever disconnect.

Also, there is absolutely no improvement in navigation. On my ride yesterday we had to detour around a road on my planned route. As usual Garmin was no help and the 830 kept prompting me to turn around instead of re-routing around the detour. At the intersection where I re-joined my route the 830 prompted me to turn right, back towards the where I deviated, instead of left to continue the route. For the better part of the next mile the 830 kept prompting me to do a U-turn when I was following the route exactly. WTF?

Later on I turned into a park to use the restroom. I made a 90 degree turn and road about 1/8 mile and then returned to the route. For the next 1/2 mile or so the 830 kept prompting me to do a U-turn. WTF?

  • Sometimes it takes a while before the unit notices you are back on the route and following it.  Until then the navigation prompts are wrong.  Just tap the screen to dismiss wrong prompt.
