• 7. How do I get more information from my (Garmin) swimming unit?

  Here the Garmin Connect platform has really an advantage. The reason for this is that the platform displays the effectiveness values and split times of each 25m or 50m section, regardless of whether it was stopped as split times.

  Regardless of this, the unit should be transferred to the training platform by exporting the TCX file so the trainer can see it.

  You can get to the details of the swimming units by ...

  1. in the Garmin Connect Dashboard open the unit (double click) and go to Show intervals on lanes.

  

  2. The corresponding interval (e.g. 200 m test) must be clicked and then opens.

  

  3. Here you can see the detailed information about time and effectiveness per lane.
  Unfortunately, this function does not yet exist in the training account, therefore the intermediate times and effectiveness values of a test or an important unit should be entered manually into the training unit on the training account.
