Wahoo Kickr Core / Vector 3 - Speed / Distance

So does anybody know how to get speed data on your garmin (using a 935) and cycling dynamics from Vector 3 at the same time?

Just got my Vector 3 pedals and seems the watch can only connect to one or the either.. so if connected to the Kickr then I get speed / distance but no data from the Vectors, else i get data from the vectors and no speed / distance data

Any advice is appreciated :)

I suspect this is because you are using BLE for the connection. Connect the V3s to the 935 using ANT+ and you should be good.

If you connect the kickr as fitness equipment / trainer it will use the power data from the kickr. Can you just connect the speed sensor from the kickr and then connect the power from the vectors. That what I do with my tacx neo.

The CORE does not have a cadence sensor built in. My KICKR 18 came with a Wahoo Bluetooth Cadence sensor that I dont use since I get cadence from the KICKR and V3 anyhow.
If you connect to the CORE and V3 though ANT+ you should be good to go

Both are paired to the watch via ANT+ and the Garmin 935 only seems to allow a connection to 1 deice at a time... connect the core and the V3 disconnects, connect the V3 and the core disconnects

Maybe its a 935 limitation as it sees the trainer as a power meter instead of fitness equipment / trainer

The watch does not currently support ANT+ FE-C so it is using the power channel to connect to the trainer. All Garmin units only support connecting to one device at a time for any given data channel. E.g. Only one power meter at a time. To be able to connect to Vector and the trainer at the same time the watch would need to use something other than the power channel that is the already being used to connect the Vector.
