Varia Vision/Garmin Express

Folks, my VV arrived today. I have successfully paired it with my Edge 1000 and that end of things is working fine. But try as I might, I cannot get GE (PC version) to recognise it when connected via USB. The VV is fully charged and the USB port is fully functional. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

When you connect the cable to HMD does the display show that it is charging if you look at it?

Yes it does, and the USB icon too.

Does it mount as a drive on the computer?

Nope. Is there something I need to do to mount it?

It should show up as a drive. The fact that it does not is why GC cannot find it.

Are you on Windows or a Mac?

For Windows you could try loading the USB drivers. https://www8.garmin.com/support/download_details.jsp?id=591

Windows (10). All my (many) other Garmin devices are recognized by GE without a problem, but I'll reload the drivers just to make sure. Thanks.

Drivers (re)installed, but GE still not finding my Varia Vision. Can someone confirm that this is working for them please? Looks like I'll be calling Garmin Support in the morning.

What version of GE do you have?

I don't think that the version of GE is the issue as the HMD should show up as a device or drive.

Once you get the wrinkles sorted out, I hope you will post your impressions of VV.

The latest version - I update assiduously: 4.1.18.0
