I hope l can pick the brains of the knowledgeable people in this group. I am new to Garmin, having used Suunto for years. A few months ago l purchase a Garmin Instinct Solar. a. Because l wanted to try Garmin and b. I was interested in the solar charging.
I digress.
Since I've had it, I've found 2 related anomalies that are bugging me and wonder if anyone else has the same issues or understands the data reporting better than me
1a. When l exercise l can see a peak HR of e.g. 140bpm but when l complete my exercise and look at the summary in the watch, the max HR reads e.g. 128bpm. The few seconds it reached 140 bpm are not reported on the watch.
1b. Later when l look at Garmin connect, the 140bpm is not reported on the graph for the exercise.
2. When l look back at the daily totals in Garmin connect, the daily total can have another different max HR for the day e.g. 125bpm
Am l dreaming or is Garmin a bit "rounding" in there figures? One explanation l have considered is that it only saves data where the bpm was achieved for more than e.g. 3 seconds, but surely this would be dangerous to omit the fact l reached 140bpm.
Sorry for the garggled description, l hope you get the point.
Thanks in advance.
