Broadcasting Heart Rate to Garmin Devices

You can broadcast your heart rate data from your vívoactive® 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 the touchscreen.
  2. Select Settings > Sensors & Accessories > Heart Rate.
  3. Select an option:

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

    • Select Broadcast to start broadcasting heart rate data now.

  4. Pair your vívoactive device with your Garmin ANT‍+® compatible device.
    NOTE: The pairing instructions differ for each Garmin compatible device. See your owner's manual.
