The last two weekends I have done a triathlon using the 255 and had no issues, however yesterday I set up SwinRun - open water swim and outdoor run and seem to have a software glitch.
The first Swim was OK for time and distance but as soon as I went into the run activity (using lap button) the watch kept lapping every 30 seconds and switching back and forth between activities, so for an hours activity. So I have 125 individual activities uploaded to Garmin Connect and Training Peaks. There is one Multisport summary of the race with a total time, but in the 30 second laps/splits I have no useable pace/distance data as tracking swim while running and run while swimming.
I tried this again when home and the same thing keeps happening - every 30 seconds a new activity, as soon as I start run mode then alternative swim/run laps every 30 seconds.
My software is up to date, I have removed all alerts, autopause and laps but still happens.
I have set up swim/run with repeat. with two activities - open water swim and run.
I have no idea where the 30-second lap/activity change is coming from.
I have powered off and on, removed Swim/run activity and added it a few times again but the identical 30 laps issue each time.
Been for a run today and watch is OK, seems the issue is just happening when in Swim/Run multisport mode.
Any ideas how to stop this 30-second lapping or where it could have come from?
