Most of my activities are running and cycling. I got an Edge 540 about 8 months ago and have been using it with chest strap for each cycling activity (without out wearing any Garmin watch). For my runs I was using a FR245 and I would only wear the watch during the run, not all day or during sleep.
But recently I got a FR265 for additional functions like lactate threshold, HRV, body battery, training readiness, etc. For some of these features, it is recommended to wear the watch 24/7, which I have been mostly doing.
But out of habit I did a ride yesterday with just my Edge 540 and of course that left a data hole during that time period for things like body battery since I was not wearing my FR265.
So my question is am I supposed to keep wearing the FR265 during a cycling activity even though I am using the Edge 540 for the cycling activity? Which unit will connect to the chest strap? Are there any settings on either device that I need to setup so they play well together during a cycling activity?
When I set up my FR265 it was made my primary wearable and training device. Could just use a little advice on what to do in this situation.
