Pairing Your ANT+ Sensors
Before you can pair, you must put on the heart rate monitor or
install the sensor.
Pairing is the connecting of ANT+ wireless sensors, for example,
connecting a heart rate monitor with your Garmin device.
1
Bring the device within 3 m (10 ft.) of the sensor.
NOTE: Stay 10 m (33 ft.) away from other riders' ANT+
sensors while pairing.
2
Select
> Settings > Sensors > Add Sensor.
3
Select an option:
• Select a sensor type.
• Select Search All to search for all nearby sensors.
A list of available sensors appears.
4
Select one or more sensors to pair with your device.
5
Select Add.
When the sensor is paired with your device, the sensor status
is Connected. You can customize a data field to display
sensor data.
Training with Power Meters
• Go to

that are compatible with your device (such as Vector
• For more information, see the owner's manual for your power
meter.
• Adjust your power zones to match your goals and abilities
(Setting Your Power Zones, page
• Use range alerts to be notified when you reach a specified
power zone
(Setting Range Alerts, page
• Customize the power data fields
Screens, page
17).
Setting Your Power Zones
The values for the zones are default values and may not match
your personal abilities. You can manually adjust your zones on
the device or using Garmin Connect. If you know your functional
threshold power (FTP) value, you can enter it and allow the
software to calculate your power zones automatically.
1
Select
> My Stats > Training Zones > Power Zones.
2
Enter your FTP value.
3
Select Based On:.
4
Select an option:
• Select watts to view and edit the zones in watts.
• Select % FTP to view and edit the zones as a percentage
of your functional threshold power.
Calibrating Your Power Meter
Before you can calibrate your power meter, you must install it,
pair it with your device, and begin actively recording data with it.
For calibration instructions specific to your power meter, see the
manufacturer's instructions.
1
Select
> Settings > Sensors.
2
Select your power meter.
3
Select Calibrate.
4
Keep your power meter active by pedaling until the message
appears.
5
Follow the on-screen instructions.
Pedal-Based Power
Vector measures pedal-based power.
Vector measures the force you apply a few hundred times every
second. Vector also measures your cadence or rotational
pedaling speed. By measuring the force, the direction of force,
the rotation of the crank arm, and time, Vector can determine

power (watts). Because Vector independently measures left and
right leg power, it reports your left-right power balance.
NOTE: The Vector S system does not provide left-right power
balance.
Cycling Dynamics
Cycling dynamics metrics measure how you apply power
throughout the pedal stroke, and where you apply power on the
pedal, allowing you to understand your particular way of riding.
Understanding how and where you produce power allows you to
train more efficiently and evaluate your bike fit.
NOTE: You must have a dual sensing Edge system to use
cycling dynamics metrics.
For more information, go to www.garmin.com/cyclingdynamics.
Using Cycling Dynamics
Before you can use cycling dynamics, you must pair the Vector
power meter with your device
page
13).
NOTE: Recording cycling dynamics uses additional device
memory.
1
Go for a ride.

3
If necessary, hold a data field
the Data Screens, page
NOTE: The two data fields at the bottom of the screen can be
customized.
You can send the ride to the Garmin Connect Mobile app to
view additional cycling dynamics data
Garmin Connect, page
15).
Power Phase Data
Power phase is the pedal stroke region (between the start crank
angle and the end crank angle) where you produce positive
power.
Platform Center Offset
Platform center offset is the location on the pedal platform where
you apply force.
Customizing Vector Features
Before you can customize Vector features, you must pair a
Vector power meter with your device.
1
Select
> Settings > Sensors.
2
Select the Vector power meter.
3
Select Sensor Details > Vector Features.
4
Select an option.
5
If necessary, select the toggle switches to turn on or off
torque efficiency, pedal smoothness, and cycling dynamics.
Updating the Vector Software Using the Edge Device
Before you can update the software, you must pair your Edge
device with your Vector system.
