I had an old Etrex Legend HcX which I was happy with, except it didn't have enough memory to hold longer routes. So I just bought an Edge 520 Plus, mainly because of the extra memory. I'd like to use it the same way as my old etrex, and for now am not bothered about the complex timing functions, or connecting to my phone. I don't have any of the additional sensors. Basically I want to be able to do three things while riding:
- display time, time since start, distant since start, speed, average speed, and elevation
- show a map with my current location
- Follow a downloaded route
But I can't work out how to do even the first of these, and the manual (even the online one) hardly has any detail. How do I set up the display I want and get it to show while riding?
menu-settings-ativity profiles-train-data screen shows me a list of 5 possible screens. I set up screen 4, which has 6 fields, the way I want, and set it to 'on', but can't work out how to get it to actually show screen 4 while riding - it always shows the default screen while I'm still, then when I start moving switches to a screen with only two fields, time and distance.
Feeling particularly stupid ;-(
