      Hello everyone,

      I have been using the race S for quite a while now and everything has been working great.

      I recently bought Garmin HRM 200 chest-strap heart rate monitor.
      I have been wanting to get the Zonesense metrics, however no matter what I tried, when starting a workout (specifically Running workout) The zonesense view says “waiting for data” and never seem to get it. Today I did a 50 minute workout and this never seemed to resolve throughout the workout.
      When starting the workout I of course chose Zonesense from Sunnto+, and I did see that the HRM which I have previously paired was showing as connected with green background at the top of the screen.
      I will also mention that I unpaired the HRM from anything (basically my phone) other than the Race S because I saw a discussion online suggesting it but It didn’t seem to do anything - still “waiting for data”.

      Some additional version information -

      Sunnto race S: 2.48.16 (seems to be latest version)
      Garmin HRM 200: 5.10 (seems to be latest version)

      I appreciate your help in resolving this.

        @harristyle please export the workout to a FIT file and open it with fitfileviewer or runallyzer and look for r-r data.

          @2b2bff I’ve opened the fit file from the previous workout over at https://www.fitfileviewer.com/ and I couldnt see any column that is related to RR data.

            @harristyle and that’s a problem… But I don’t know how to help you. I guess the HRM is set to not use a secure connection, because otherwise you wouldn’t get a pairing with the phone…

            I only have the HRM DUAL and it works without issues…

              Like @2b2bff said, according to fit file content, it looks like HR Belt didn’t send R-R data, thus, no ZoneSense.
              I don’t know this Garmin 200. Could there be a garmin app to “unlock” such data sharing? Or like these data exclusively broadcasted to Garmin devices? Or… 😏.
              Or something else on watch not receiving these data…
              Or fit file not exporting correctly…

              You could also export the json file for this activity, and also check in it for R-R data.

                @harristyle I think in a prior discussion the issue is if the belt is connected to an iPhone R-R data from the Garmin belt is only sent to the phone. Disconnect the belt from the phone and it should work.

                  @Brad_Olwin As I said in my original post this wasn’t the issue.

                  This issue fixed itself and I am now able to see zonesense data on the watch and in the app, and I am not sure but believe one of the 2 following things fixed it:

                  1. HRM 200 version updated to 5.40
                  2. Looking at the HRM 200 manual (Manual) I realized the device have 2 connection types: secure and open. Secure is when the device blinks green twice and open when it blinks green three times. I am not sure what was the connection type when I originally tried to make it work, but when trying again after opening this thread I made sure to use the open connection state.

                  My hypothesis is that one of the two fixed my issue.
                  Leaving this for future reference and future google searches, as when I searched this I didn’t find anything related.
