Issues with Swim HRM and no heart rate data after swim

Former Member over 7 years ago

Hi,
Is anyone aware of the problem or fix for the blue HRM swim with the following;
Shows heart rate data but would seem to not be storing / transmitting post work out? Assume this is only happening on the swim component because this is where the hrm is required to store and can't forward data to the735 instantly. Upon completion of the swimming activity, the file won't sync with Garmin connect and says fit file corrupted however when manually exctracted it uploads to training peaks without heart rate data. Current updates to both the watch and hrm have been completed. Any help appreciated.

You could try re-downloading the stored heart rate. To do this:
- Put on the HRM-Swim, make sure it is connected to the FR735.
- On the FR735, select Menu > History, and then select the activity in question
- Scroll down past Details to an option "Download Heart Rate data" and select.
- Import the new .fit file to Garmin Connect. (Using the little blue "+" on the top right of the page)

Note that Training Peaks never displays heart rate for pool swimming.
