External Heart Rate

I have two external heart rate monitor and I tried it with both. When I connect them to watch, heart rate connect and disconnect continuously. It’s a problem watch or bug due to both works correctly in my Garmin edge 530. Any solution?

During activity too

Nope. You can't see it. Right way to use external HRM - pair it and forget about connectivity. It will be paired only in activity. ANT+ works flawless. And... Your Edge works…

Read my first message. My problem is that the watch loses the connection with any external HR. I start an activity y heart rate marks 80 bpm (for example). In 5 seconds , the watch shows - - bpm. 5 second later, 85bpm. After 5 seconds (for example) it’s shows - - bpm. It’s continuously.

I had a similar problem with FR55 and HRM DUO, then I managed to solve it this way - I put the watch on my right hand instead of my left - it helped. The main reason was the decrease in the range of the watch via BTBT/ANT+, so the smartphone also had to be kept on the right forearm for audio prompts.
