I have a Garmin Forerunner 955 Solar (FW 15.19). I want to record my korfball (a Dutch game) activities while I am not wearing my watch - it could injury my teammates or opponents. So I bought a HRM Pro strap (currently on FW 8.8).
So, I have a profile based on a treadmill. I start that one on my watch, then I put the watch away in my bag and start sporting. I guess that the watch is out of the reach of the HRM Pro, but I cannot check that. Afterwards, I directly stop the activity. On my watch, it downloads heart rate but it seems the distance (based on the cadence that the HRM Pro is capturing) is not transmitted to the activity. Afterwards, the steps are counted towards my daily goal.
Up until now, I do not have a solution from Garmin. My watch is perfectly working and the heart rate strap is working fine when I do a run and wearing it (so the watch is nearby).
So my question: Is anyone able to record treadmill activities with a HRM Pro strap and syncing afterwards with the watch, so the distance and heartrate is shown inside the recorded activity?
