Broadcasting Heart Rate Data to Garmin Devices

You can broadcast your heart rate data from your fēnix® 3 device and view it on paired Garmin® devices. For example, you can broadcast your heart rate data to an Edge® device while cycling, or to a VIRB® action camera during an activity.

NOTE: Broadcasting heart rate data decreases battery life.
  1. Hold UP.
  2. Select Settings > Sensors > Wrist Heart Rate > Broadcast HR.
  3. Select an option:

    • Select In App to broadcast heart rate during timed activities (Starting an Activity).

    • Select Now to start broadcasting heart rate data now.

    The fēnix 3 device starts broadcasting your heart rate data, and Heart rate broadcast status appears.

    NOTE: You can view only the heart rate widget while broadcasting heart rate data.
  4. Pair your fēnix 3 device with your Garmin ANT‍+® compatible device.
    NOTE: The pairing instructions differ for each Garmin compatible device. See your owner's manual.
    TIP: To stop broadcasting your heart rate data, select any key, and select Yes.
