How do you login/configure data fields in Edge 1040?

I got a Garmin edge 1040 today to replace my 530 that died and I can’t figure out how to login to my favourite data field, the MPA/Power field.

There is no data fields section in the connect phone app. I tired to save an activity a d the reboot and still it did not work.

Any ideas?

Make sure you’re using the ConnectIQ app, they kinda (quietly) removed the ability to do this from the Garmin Connect mobile app. In the ConnectIQ app, select your Edge device and go to My data fields > MPA/Power. Select ‘Settings’ and enter your Xert user/pass. Save.

Next time you start an activity, the data field should fetch your signature from Xert and update the dot to green!

HTH!

Thank you! I just installed it and everything is there. Data fields installed and back online :slight_smile:

It was confusing because data fields and widgets were in the normal place on the 530 but not on the 1040.
