Data fields

The following table gives you an overview about all data fields of the Cycling App Professional application. Please note that some of them require the PREMIUM version.

Data field header Data field description
ALTCurrent altitude in meters or feet depending on your watch unit settings for distance. Please click here and find further information in note 1.
A CADAverage cadence information of the whole session.
A HRAverage heart rate information in bpm for the whole session.
A PACEAverage pace information of the whole session for 1 km/mi depending on your watch unit settings for distance.
A PWRAverage power information of the whole session in watt.
A SPEEDAverage speed information of the whole session in km/h or mi/h based on your watch unit settings for distance.
CADCurrent cadence information.
CL DISTCurrent LAP distance in km or mi based on your watch unit settings for distance.
CL PACECurrent LAP pace information depending on your watch unit settings for distance.
CL SPEEDCurrent LAP speed information in km/h or mi/h based on your watch unit settings for distance.
CL TIMECurrent LAP time information in in the format mm:ss or m:ss.
DISTDistance information in km or mi based on your watch unit settings for distance.
DOWNNegative altitude difference in meters or feet for the whole session depending on your watch unit settings for distance. Please click here and find further information in note 1.
ELAPSElapsed total session time (including IDLE time) in the format hh:mm, h:mm:ss or mm:ss.
GRADE %Grade in percent. This information is derived from the distance and altitude information and averaged over the last x seconds. Please click here and find further information in note 2 and 5.
HRCurrent heart rate information in bpm.
HR ZONE

Current heart rate zone in the range of 0.0 to 6.0 with following meaning:

  • 0.0 ... current heart rate below Zone 1 (minimum heart rate)
  • 1.0 - 1.9 ... current heart rate in Zone 1
  • 2.0 - 2.9 ... current heart rate in Zone 2
  • 3.0 - 3.9 ... current heart rate in Zone 3
  • 4.0 - 4.9 ... current heart rate in Zone 4
  • 5.0 - 5.9 ... current heart rate in Zone 5
  • 6.0 ... current heart rate above Zone 5 (maximum heart rate).

The value is derived from your cycling heart rate profile settings configured at Garmin. Please click here and find further information in note 3.

IDLEIdle session time where speed was below the following user-defined limit (default is 0.5 km/h or mi/h).
KCALKilo-calories consumption for the whole session.
LAPCurrent LAP number.
LL DISTLast LAP distance in km or mi based on your watch unit settings for distance.
LL PACELast LAP pace information depending on your watch unit settings for distance.
LL SPEEDLast LAP speed information in km/h or mi/h based on your watch unit settings for distance.
LL TIMELast LAP time information in in the format mm:ss or m:ss.
MOVEMoving session time (without IDLE time) in the format hh:mm, h:mm:ss or mm:ss.
M CADMaximum cadence information of the whole session.
M HRMaximum heart rate information in bpm for the whole session.
M HR %Current heart rate in percentage of maximum heart taken from the user settings depending on the application you are using. Please refer to HR ZONE for further details. Please click here and find further information in note 3.
M PACEMaximum pace information of the whole session for 1 km/mi depending on your watch unit settings for distance.
M PWRMaximum power information of the whole session in watt.
M SPEEDMaximum speed information of the whole session in km/h or mi/h based on your watch unit settings for distance.
PACECurrent pace of the last x seconds (contineously calculated) for 1 km/mi depending on your watch unit settings for distance. Please click here and find further information in note 5.
PWRInstant power information in watt.
PWR 3sPower information in watt averaged over the last 3 seconds.
SPEEDCurrent speed information in km/h or mi/h based on your watch unit settings for distance.
TEMPCurrent temperature in celsius or fahrenheit depending on your watch unit settings for temperature. Please click here and find further information in note 4.
TIMECurrent time in 12/24h format based on your watch system settings.
TRAIN EThe training effect score of the current activity. Training effect is a score developed by FirstBeat, which indicates an activity's level of effect on aerobic fitness. Scores range from 1.0 (easy) to 5.0 (overreaching).
UPPositive altitude difference in meters or feet for the whole session depending on your watch unit settings for distance. Please click here and find further information in note 1.
VSPDVertical speed averaged over the last x seconds in m/h or feet/h depending on your watch unit settings for distance. Please click here and find further information in notes 2 and 6.

On Garmin devices with CIQ 2 and higher following additional data fields are available:

Data field header Data field description
PWR 5sPower information in watt averaged over the last 5 seconds.
PWR 10sPower information in watt averaged over the last 10 seconds.
PWR 30sPower information in watt averaged over the last 30 seconds.

Notes

Note 1
This information is only precise enough on watches with barometric altimeter as altitude information cannot be derived precisely from GPS. For further details, please click here.

Note 2
Information is only precise if you have an ANT+ speed sensor and a barometric altimeter on your watch. Especially if relative altitude information is derived from GPS, then it will not be very precise due to the physical limitations of GPS as described here. For further details, please click here.

Note 3
The EPIX watch does not support the Garmin SDK >= 1.2.6. Thus it is not possible for an app to access the heart rate profiles. Therefore the heart rate zones are derived from the maximum heart rate configured by the user.

Note 4
Temperature sensor support in Garmin apps is only possible if either an ANT+ TEMPE sensor is available or the device itself has an internal temperature sensor. The ANT+ TEMPE has higher priority as the internal sensor.

Note 5
The averaging period x can be configured by the user via the app settings in the range of 5 to 30 seconds on Garmin devices with CIQ2 or higher.

Note
On older devices, this feature is not available!
