Check out my first activity.
HR drops to 63. The strap is the Garmin HRM-RUN. Less than a year old. Works fine on other garmin devices.
What's going on?
  • Giving this thread a bump...

    Anyone heard any news regarding a FW fix for this? I find it hard to believe that Garmin's official stance on this is to buy another HR strap, one that is technically a model "down" from the HRM-RUN? I have a Edge 520 sitting here new in box, that I have not yet opened due to this issue.

    Debating if I should just return or not??

    Tks!

    FWIW, I was told by support early last week a fix is coming but could not provide an eta.

    Thanks @MAGNUS_tm!
  • What about Garmin HRM-Tri

    What about the new tri-hrm. I just received mine today and had no issues pairing but have not taken it for a ride yet.

    How comfortable is the HRM-Tri to run and bike in?

    No different than the Premium Soft Strap. Don't notice it at all.
  • FYI.. ver 2.60 has this problem.

    I am in Taiwan. Software version 2.60 and GPS version 2.90. In my other thread about 2.60, someone asked me to test the HRM-RUN. I just did and it failed miserably with constant drops to 63bpm. Screenshot attached.
  • Here's a screenie of HR Chart from my first ride with the 520 and the HRM-RUN Strap... tons of 63 dropouts. The HRM-RUN used to work just fine with my Edge 510, see a second screen shot from a ride earlier in the week. Looking forward to a fix on this one!
