How do I set up the 1030 to record only moving time for the duration of the ride?

How do I set up a timer so that I have the elapsed riding time (only when moving) at the end of my ride? Any time I set the "auto pause" to ON (when stopped) then only my speed and the timer registers and nothing else works (including distance traveled). I want everything to work, but the elapsed time of the ride to stop when I am stopped at a red light or stop sign.
On my Edge 1000 I set this up with a field called "current lap" with auto pause on and auto lap off, but I don't even see a "current lap" field on the the Edge 1030 or even on the Edge 1000 anymore.
I like to see the actual "moving elapsed time" of my rides at the end of the rides - not overall time including stops.
If I use "auto pause" then which "time" field should I use with it?

Please help. Thanks.

  • It's kinda odd.  For the profile go into the auto settings.  You can set auto on when moving. I like it can be set for a particular profile.  Now if only sensors can be set this way.

  • Any time I set auto pause on, the only things that work on the unit are the timer (and it won't stop running) and the speed.  No distance or elevation are measured.  I have tried all possible time choices and auto pause choices.  I must be missing something.

  • There are 2 „timers“:

    -Time (stops at pause)
    -Time elapsed  (always runs during an activity)

    The manual says:
    Time: The stopwatch time for the current activity.
    Time - Elapsed: The total time recorded. For example, if you start the timer and run for 10 minutes, then stop the timer for 5 minutes, then start the timer and run for 20 minutes, your elapsed time is 35 minutes.

  • Why sensors by profile ? you take a bike and go and the Edge uses whatever sensors you have on that bike. Works great.

  • Auto-pause really pause recording. When you get going everything starts again. There is actually two timers, one that stops and the Elapsed Time which never stops. All sensors and GPS based metrics works as normal with Auto Pause ON. I use it all the time. I have it turned off on the MTB profile because out in the woods it triggers for nothing. But when road biking works just fine.

  • I've never had a single problem with auto-pause. When I use it, everything works fine (sensors, timer, etc).

  • I was almost right.  In the iPhone app Connect in the data for an activity is a moving time and total time and elapse time.  I assume elapsed is the total clock time. I did not look to see what the average speed is based on. Also I read about this here but if I stop to fix a flat or snack I’ll press the stop button to pause then press the power off button to put it to sleep. I just have to remember to push the start button after I turn it back on and take off again. Need to see how that calculates too. 

    Edit:  I missed there is an average moving speed in the data list  

    The Montana has more information and is easier to understand.  The fitness devices are just different than the hand held devices. I used to only use the Montana. Still use it in the car and on the motorcycles.
