Connecting my Fenix 7 ANT+ FE-C

Post by Tonyg » June 15th, 2023, 3:00 pm

Hi All,

Ive been trying to connect my Fenix 7 to the PM5 but having problems, I updated to latest firmware 173, and cant find options to connect via ANT+ FE-C
etc
the more Ant+ options menu item is not there!!!

I had it connected to my forerunner 945 in the past where all info on PM5 (Power, stroke rate, Distance etc) was displayed on watch.
any help much appreciated

if this is a New!! feature of Firmware can I downgrade firmware to older version?

AFAIK, it is seen automatically as a Smarttrainer device (add as sensor on the Fenix).

unfortunately my watch cant see it as a sensor, I think it has something to do with the Ant+ FE C option, that I cant see in any menu item since I updated to the latest firmware 173. :(

I am in touch with Support, it does appear that the missing menu options is not expected behaviour, hoping for a fix via support.
