I'm sure this is common

I am using a standard trainer with my own power/cadence/speed meters whilst training on Zwift. I am using a Wahoo HRM too. The power meter and cad/speed all work fine, however, I cannot seem to get my HRM to connect at the same time.

 

In the past my Wahoo HRM has worked but my power/cad/speed did not - and vice versa!

Is there any reason that they will not work together? I have resorted to running my Garmin 810 just so I can monitor my HR whilst riding.

Are you using a PC, Mac or iOS device?

PC

How far away is the Ant+ dongle? Are you “bridging” your power and speed/cadence using the ZML or are they Ant+?

The more info we have the better and faster we can assist in helping you resolve your issue.

what is the ZML?

I may have misinformed you. I use my phone to pick up the signal from my power meter/cad/speed sensor. I have an app called ‘Mobile link’.

At one time I have had my HRM linked up to Zwift on my display - but apparently this was at the cost of not having my power/cad/speed.

Now, I can’t get my HRM to display at all.

ZML = Zwift Mobile Link.

Ok, so all of your devices are Bluetooth.

Make sure that the Wahoo HRM is not connected to any other devices/app using Bluetooth, the Garmin 810 should be ok since it is using the Ant+ signal. Bluetooth can only connect to one device/app at any given time, so if the Wahoo HRM is connected to something else it cannot connect to the ZML and transmit the signal to the PC.

Could this relate to me using my Wahoo HRM with Strava?

Yes, like I said Bluetooth can only be connect to one app/device at a time.

O.k, great. Thank you!
