Upload Swim Activities to Garmin Connect From the Garmin Swim

The Garmin Swim can upload swim activities wirelessly to Garmin Connect using the USB ANT stick. The best way to set up the Garmin Swim to transfer to the computer is by installing Garmin Express and following the pairing steps in the program.

If these steps have been taken and the Garmin Swim is not being detected by Garmin Express, it may be necessary to enable pairing. The Pairing setting can be found and enabled from the System page within the menu.

Activities will not be able to be uploaded into Garmin Connect if the watch is in Sleep Mode. Wear the watch or move it periodically while trying to upload to ensure it does not go into Sleep Mode.

The Garmin Swim will come pre-paired with the Ant Stick in the box. If using a different ANT stick, pairing following a reset, or after downloading updated software, the watch will beep and ask to pair with the computer. The Yes option will need to be selected.
