Controlling a Smart Trainer With a Garmin Device

Some Garmin devices can connect to indoor smart trainers to simulate your favorite courses, activities, or workouts using the resistance of the trainer.

What Smart Trainers Are Controllable With My Garmin Fitness Device?

Any smart trainer with an ANT+ FE-C protocol may be controlled with a compatible Garmin device.

NOTE: Trainers may also be paired as sensors to simply relay specific performance data such as speed, power, and cadence. Refer to Wireless Connection Options for Tacx Smart Trainers for more information.


What Kind of Control Do I Have When Paired With a Smart Trainer?

NOTE: Options may vary by model. Refer to your owners manual for specific smart trainer options. 

  • Follow Activity: Repeat an activity that the device previously recorded.

  • Follow Course: Used when following a course that is downloaded to the device. The trainer's resistance will change to match the course's elevation changes.

  • Free Ride: Device is connected to the trainer and records trainer metrics. Used when not doing a specific workout or course.

  • Follow Workout: Used when following a downloaded workout that includes specific workout targets.

  • Set Power: Sets the trainer to a specific wattage and holds that value for the entire activity.

  • Set Grade: Sets the trainer to a specific grade and holds that value for the entire activity.
