I use a Garmin watch to automatically sync data to ICU, but I’ve noticed that the Climbing data in each sync is very inaccurate. This is because all the data synced to ICU has the “Use elevation correction” feature enabled.
I tried to disable “Use elevation correction” in the settings of individual workout data, but it only applies to that particular data entry. I also attempted to update the settings for all data by setting “Use elevation correction” to “no” in the “Update Settings” under “Edit” for all data, but it only modifies the data within the current selected time range. After trying both methods, the newly uploaded data still defaults to having “Use elevation correction” enabled.
How can I disable this setting so that this feature is turned off for all future data syncs?
As mentioned in my post, I have already set this, see setting 1, but this setting only applies to the current workout data. What I want is for it to apply to all future synchronized data.
Your first screenshot shows ‘Use Elevation Correction’ checked. It must be unchecked and your watch must be defined as having correct elevation.
If you leave Use Elevation Correction checked, Intervals will use elevation data from DEM maps.
Hi guys, my watch has recently been playing up with its altimeter. I have logged a ticket with Garmin to see if they can fix it. Anyway I was wondering if there is any option with this feature in intervals where I can select the runs since my watch has stopped working and giving bogus elevation and just use GPS data instead for those select activities? I don’t want to update the watch type as it should have accurate elevation if it was working properly (Garmin 255). Cheers
Hmm, I have tried above, and also reprocessing after doing that, and also re-downloading from Garmin but in the altitude graphs it still doesn’t update to reflect
