How to I switch my heart rate input from wrist to strap hr monitor

1

Today I completed a run without my heart rate strap. As the heart rate data is still coming through, I suspect that the data input on all my activities is wrist heart rate data. How can I check? And can I change the input from wrist to strap?

Which device (brand)?

Thanks for your response! Both watch and heart rate monitor are Garmin.

Depending on the device:

Select Settings > Watch Sensors > Wrist Heart Rate > Status > Off

I have the 735XT, so it’s Settings > Heart Rate Monitor > Toggle HR off.

Just bear in mind that other wrist-based functions are also disabled, eg. Garmin Pay (if you use it).

Is there also an option to select an different input on intervals.icu?

Only if multiple HR streams are recorded, and that is very unlikely if you haven´t consciously configured it on your device.

If there is/was a strap connected, Garmin is/was using strap.
