Kiox and Bluetooth data

[Mteam]

I've just popped out to the garage and turned the bike on. Disconnected battery saver on my Fenix 6 pro, went to Bluetooth on the kiox and it connected straight away to the watch, the kiox is showing both my phone and watch connected with a little heart rate monitor display.
No idea if it will do anything but ill let you no next time I'm out on the bike.

Let me know if you can get the kiox to display your heart rate from your fenix 6 - I also have a fenix 6 pro, I have succesfully paired it to the kiox , and it shows in the kiox display and on the watch that they are connected, and I have set the fenix to broadcast the heart rate, but the kiox just shows a "-" in the heart rate field. I cant make it work at all.

On my former sport watch, the built-in HR sensor was not very good for mountain biking. Too many wrist movements in descents, the HR sensor was losing it. So I purchased a Decathlon HR strap, works like a charm with the Garmin Fenix 6, and I never used the Fenix built-in sensor.
The Kiox should be able to connect to the strap.

The Kiox should be able to connect to the strap.

yes, it should be able to, but does it?

I can confirm it doesn't register with a value, strange when it actually shows up as a heart monitor and connects. I don't no if it works the other way and transfers cadence to the watch? I'm not to fussed to be honest, I like to look at the watch and or my 830, I hardly ever deviate from the kiox 1st screen .

I would be interested if you could get the Kiox to send the rider power info to the watch? Thanks!

 

[Minikeum]

Any news on that? can Your Garmin Fenix watch connect to the Kiox and get the real time cadence and rider power ?
thanks!

Its not currently possible - the kiox does not transmit this data (or any data it would seem)

Ok thanks! That sucks, but it saves me some money as I can keep my old - scandalously obsolete in 2020 - Purion

I am really liking the Kiox on my jam2 6.8. Removed some screens and created a couple of custom ones. Never used a Garmin or Strava.. will maybe get a heart rate monitor if I can figure out what will work. Usually leave it on the big Speedo with graphic bar. Only gripe I currently have is the navigation screen being either zoomed in too far or out too far to really be of any use.

Do you see the HR data in the flow app? I have mine connected to my Apple Watch and just noticed that the HR info doesn’t get added to the file. I have a HR strap for my garmin but since Bosch doesn’t play well with Garmin i just use my watch.

With the recent update Bosch has added the functionality to display heartrate data on the Kiox but nothing is recorded. Probably needs another two years of development.

My Garmin Venu2 works fine with the Kiox.
