- Garmin Data Screen setup for forerunner 245, 645, 945 and Fenix 6. You're going to get a great overview of what a datascreen is and how to customise the ones already on your Forerunner or Fenix. Then download more datascreens from the Garmin connect store to install on to your watch. I then demonstrate some of my favourite datascreens on my Forerunner 245. We then go to the settings to change the layout of the datascreens we've installed

Thanks so much for watching everyone, I really appreciate it!!! 😎🏃👍
Hey man, is there a way that I can see my current elevation gain with this watch during a run/walk?
Hey Jake, not on the 245 unfortunately. The data is worked out during the syncing process
@@shanebow thanks man appreciate the feedback, any chance you know any garmin watches that are able to do that?
You're welcome 👍😎 FR 645 and above.
@@jakecowdry8430 @shanebow I think the built in barometer / altimeter is the key to a lot of "on watch" metrics even floors climbed. Otherwise it's calculated based on the GPS altitude data - not really very detailed, compared to a sensor on your wrist.
- A lot of the older watches (expensive at time of launch) have these extra sensors - careful research recommend 😀
I would watch you review anything. Always clear, concise, and to the point. Best UA-cam reviewer out there, hands down.
Man! That comment is awesome. Thanks loads
Shanebow, though I own only a 45, i watched this video of yours since I watch mostly all your videos !! Thank you, Shanebow! Your videos are always precise and interesting! keep it going, friend !
your videos helped me buy FR245. And these videos are even more informative. Keep up the good work. Its good to see the watch in action.
Thanks for this video. Its the only one i've seen so far that shows you how to change distance and pace settings for peters race pacer. It has been stuck on marathon distance since i downloaded it and havent been able to use it for 5km time trials. Now i can finally use it. Thanks again
Was in Connect IQ, looking at data screens, and came across Shanebow reference in reviews, so popped over here to have a look. I'm delighted with the information and demo's, and have subscribed, and liked. Thanks a lot Shanebow. Pat.
Cheers pat, really great comments, appreciated!!
Shanebow, thank you so much for this video. I have been messing with my new 245 for days to no avail. But now it;s up and running with the right data field, thank you.
Thanks loads for that! Have a great 2020!!!🥇
this was so much more helpful than what Garmin gave us after we downloaded the app in the store. there is a guy that starts to walk through out to set this up. however, he jumps a couple steps and doesn't show how to get to the data screen. Hes just automatically there. I was getting very frustrated because I couldnt figure out how to get to the screen to add peters racer. let alone figuring out what to do to change the settings after its installed. THis was so much more effective in walking through how to set everything up. thank you very much!
I love all the things you can customize, I find that I really only need a few things but am always willing to try something new
Amazing video! Thanks for taking the time to put it together for us.
Great vid, I'm quite new to Garmin, but that has made changing data fields so simple to understand, thanks again
I've been torn about which watch to get but I went out today and got the 245, cheers dude
You're welcome mate! It's just a great watch!!!😎
Thank you so much!! I couldn’t find this option for a week!! And now it works! Amazing! Thank you!!!
You're welcome! Thanks for the comments 🙂🥇
Thanks! Can't wait to have my garmin 245. U help me much to make my decision. 😊
Thanks for the comments! Enjoy it! 😎
Bro ,i always go back to this video when i get a new data field 😂 thanks alot much appreciated and awesome video❤
Thank you Shane for the video. It’s so informative & helpful 😊
Thanks Erica. You're a star!😎
Hi Shanebow, thanks for all the great info! Question: is there a data screen that you know of which in addition to the Iother data also allows you to have an alert for interval running? For example, I run two minutes 30 seconds and walk one minute repeatedly throughout my long runs.I know how to set this up on the regular Garman interval training screens but just wondering if there’s an all in one type data screen that might include this? Thanks for any recommendations you may have.
That was a lot of information in a short time thanks very knowledgeable
Thanks Shane, your video is such a great help!
Thanks! Can't wait to buy my 245!
You're welcome. It's an awesome watch and a great choice
Hi Shanebow, thanks for the video's, keep them coming! I sent you a connection request on Garmin, always fun to connect to other data-driven runners.
Thanks Jos
Thanks Jo, great video. This is my slight criticism of Garmin. I have the 645 and it isn’t that is use for Peters running. Maybe I need to get used to it, but these videos really help, keep up the great work.
Super, thanks - I didn't know about Peter's (Race) Predictor, works much better than the Virtual Partner on my Garmin 945.
Great video , never knew about these
This was so helpful!
Although sounds not perfect, you explain it very clear, thank for sharing
Super helpful video. Thanks a lot!
Hey Shane.
thanks for your input i just got my garmin 245 music just today.
Thank you for your info and everything that you do.
Those are great comments! I'm glad you're enjoying the channel!
You've got a great watch there, enjoy!!!
Do you still like it?
How did the music feature work out?
Just bought the FR245 music for £210 excited to use it!
Crazy price! Enjoy! 😎👍
Thank you so much I’ve had Dozen run/walk/bike installed for nearly a year and didn’t know how to access it
Once installed go into add a new data field, select the option that only shows one field. Then when selecting what field this is go into custom and it should appear. The Apps only work on single data fields when adding them to the watch. Hope this helps!
Hello Shane,
Wow! What a great video. I’ve learned so much by following along. Thank you!
I had a question though, at the end you explained how to adjust the time but previously you mentioned how to have it tell you when to have a gel. How do I do that so I can have it tell me every 30 minutes?
Thanks a lot !
Great video to introduce folks to Connect IQ and using data screens
Cheers Inda
So nerdy....I LOVE IT!!! DATA GEEKS R US 😂
Fantastic, thank you!
this video is so good allways come back to it when i forget how to do it XD
Cheers Sune. Really appreciate it.
Fantastic video! Thank you
Thanks so much for this video mate. That hooks me up
Glad to hear it. Cheers pal 👍😎
I've managed to change the data screens for when I do a manual run but whenever I do a Garmin coach training plan run it shows time, steps and step pace. Is it possible to change the data screens for a training plan or are they set by the plan?
Ps bought a 245 based on your reviews, keep the videos coming, they're the most user / runner relatable ones out there! Thank you!
this is such a helpful video. thank you!
Cheers for your comments 😎😎👍
This video was amazing
Thank you for a great video. I have a question, is the data field can be customizeable from 4 data to 6 or higher on Venu 2 Plus. I am planning to get this watch but still concern about this configuration on the watch. I need to monitor 6 data at the same time while running. Thanks again for a reply!
Shanebow, good explenations of all the possibilities!!
one question why is it not possible to choose 2 data screens. for example i want to see peter race pacer and single run field together in running mode. I can only use one at a time. if you select the second to import you only see timer. is there a solution for it? Now i have to delete one data screen to import another.... so not at the same time.
I have a forerunner 945
Thx
Christo
ผมใช้อยู่นะครับ Garmin 245 ใช้ดีมากเลยครับ
Great video mate . Thanks 🙏
Thanks for your comments. 😎
You saved me my friend! Just lost 1.5h hour to find how to use downloaded Data Screen..
I was in this Add new -> Custom Data, but when it shown option to select from choosing Screen with 1-7 Data Fields - thought it's wrong.
I would never guess that to add custom Data Screen one must add new Screen with Single Field - and in this Field put.. Data Screen..
Thanks!
Got the fallout one from your videos, cheers!
OMD this is awesome!
Thanks for the insight . I will buy the 645
No worries Raphael you're welcome. I love the contactless payments on it. Take care and smash those runs!!!
Thanks. There are many running data faces but how to select? Each time it takes the first one.
Very helpful thank you
Cheers Derek!!! 😎👍
Just received my garmin 245 for christmas ,i have been out and used it already and really enjoyed the easiness of it but it is still measuring in miles whilst running ,i have done as you said to change it ,my phone also gives me my stats in miles now since syncing with my new garmin ,please can you help
Hi I have a data screen question that maybe you can help with? When I’m running one of my data screens is the time, this also includes a small picture of the battery to represent battery life. Is there any way I can change this picture to a percentage so I can keep a better eye on the battery level? I’m able to do this in the normal mode but not while I’m running. Thanks
Hello Shane, can you please guide me how to set the distance and time and pace how to change it please because I couldn't do it on Peters race pacer . Manny thanks !
When you are in training mode can the screen show battery status or you must exit from training mode? Garmin FR 945
excellent mate
Endlich hab ich es auch verstanden, danke aus Deutschland
Vielen Dank. sich kümmern
No offense Shane, your tutorial is great! But on my Polar watch, I can do this on my PC without struggling with the buttons of the watch. Why hasn't Garmin implemented this on their Connect software? Data field customization should be as easy as drag n' drop.
Thanks for that, it was really useful. PS I hope your head gets better soon
Cheers Ian! I hope you're smashing those runs! 😎👍
Love your videos, keep going! 😉
Cheers Josep 😎
Nice video. Thks
Thanks for taking the time to comment 😎
Great videos; thank you. My question; is it possible to add field for distance (in miles as we in the US are in the Dark Ages...) in my personalized interval set up (4min run/1 min walk). I've searched web, played on Garmin 245 watch & iPhone w/o luck. Thank you! (ps; presently I run with both Apple watch and Garmin ; one for mileage, the other for buzzer for interval)
this is pretty cool, I just got my watch yesterday (3 years late I guess!) and was trying to figure out what all stuff I can do to geek out on it. LOL
My partner has a Fenix 6 Saphirre and that seems a bit extensive by default so was wondering how I could get a bit more from the data points perspective.
Thumbs up!
Hi,similar to Eric Morrissey I can't get to "add new" when I scroll down to download my preferred data field.I get the "map" option and the velocity option when I scroll down so there is no space left for "add new".What am I doing wrong and how can I get rid of the unwanted options?
ALL IN ONE. I can now use because I did not know how to activate. Thank you! This garmin stuff is not intuitive. And the garmin website help is bad.
very usefull thanks and well done.
Thanks for the comments 😎
Always liked Dozen Run and Dozen Cycle. I wish they had a app or method of adding a 2 more data fields to the map (max is currently 2) as i would love HR, Power, Speed and distance overlaid on a map
This was extremely helpful. One question - you mentioned the "all in" data screen - is this different than the Peter's Pace data screen or did you just adapt the Peter one to make it the all in?
The app is called all in one
Thank you 🙏
Glad it helped. 🥇
I used this app this morning at a 5k. I had the auto lap disabled and hit the lap button at every mile marker. My distance was off by over 1/2 mile yet my Garmin registered the correct pace. Any suggestions?
Thank you
Thank u.
Thanks, that was very helpful. Setting up datascreens like right now.
Thanks for the comments Mathijs! Enjoy 😎
Thanks
How accurate do you think the current pace?
Loving the geeking out!
What a great review. You could school anyone
Cheers Marty! Love those comments! 👍🏃😎
All of those data fields from PETERS (Race) .. fit on the Forerunner 245 Music????
Can you not use the Pro Pacer now?
Whew! Thank you. I would have never figured this out myself.
Thanks for your comments. Brilliant to hear it helped. Wishing you the most amazing runs!! 😎
@@shanebow Hi Bro. Can you tell me which running data fields would you put on the watch? I have 945 and it allows up to 6 max?
Hey mate. It really depends on your focus areas and what you're working on. Maybe time elapsed, distance, pace, average pace, heart rate, cadence. Take care!
@@shanebow just trying improve cardio endurance and maintain my weight, but goal is to run a half marathon by end of the year.
Excellent goal!!! Go smash it!!!! Have a look at my Garmin coach video if you haven't already as you can set up a plan for that.
Hi
When I click add data screen it only gives me virtual partner or music options, I have the 245. Can you advise?
Does it work the same way on forerunner 745? :)
Have you tried the Single Run Field (Single Field) data field? Also, with the all in one (very similar to the Single Field, do you notice if it drains the battery any faster than say the stock fields?
Definitely no battery drain. I guess it's recording all the data anyway so not having to work any harder.
I did these steps, added peters pace racer.. how do i get it to show up on my 245m screen????????
Is it possible to set Duathlon or Brick session in Garmin forerunner 245?
My dream is for years to use my garmin as my suunto 10 years ago. Finally, u showed me the ghost runner, cool. But how can I use the auto lap (every km) and the lap time that I choose when I pushed (e.g. I reach the top of the hill). So autolap and lap separately. Otherwise, it measured the autolap from I used the lap. It's ridiculous.
why the distance after the end of the run differs when syncing with the garmina app ???
The white reincarnation of Jimi Hendrix, LOL
Hello, great videos.
I was wondering if it can show the current speed im running in
Yes it will 👍
i have the Fenix 7 and changing the target pace is not an option in the way you showed towards the end of your video. i do realize this video was back in 2019 and things might have changed, so if you or anyone in the comments reading this has an updated way of doing this pleas let me know. Thanks !
thx so i can maximum use for my 945
Nice watch!
This is really good thanks.. just got my Garmin 245.. trying to add the peter pace app but it doesn’t give me the option ConnectIQ fields.. any thoughts.. it shows up as downloaded in my device apps on ConnectIQ really hoping you can help
I don't sorry. But... Give Peter Decker an email. He's a helpful guy, I've had a few conversations with him. His details are on the support bit on the description of the app on the IQ store.
It's a great watch.
Cheers for the comments Myke. 😎👍
Shanebow - Running & Tech thanks I’ll do that
Hey Shanebow great video!! Can't wait to get the 245. What watch did you use in the video??
Hey Germano. Cheers for the comments. It was the FR 245. New video out in the next hour on the watch too.
@@shanebow so cool never have gotten a reply!! Cheers to you and your videos. Will watch. The FR245 is a sweet watch
Hi Shane, sorry to bother you again.
Have you noticed today with the new 3.90 software update (this is on the 245) that you have to have either sound or vibrate on for a notification? This is so frustrating as I like the notifications but don't like either sound or vibrate, Garmin seem to have taken the option away or it's a bug on the update. Can go into the system settings on the watch and turn vibrate off but it still vibrates. On the app there is no option to change it, apart from completely turn notifications off which I don't want to do.
Hey Scott. I saw the update and was going to do a deep dive into it on a few days! Sounds like a backwards move there. I will update on my findings. Have a good one mate
i am looking to display Training load WHILE i am doing the activity. it can be TSS, TRIMP, cardio load, training load or any number that can allow me to see while doing the activity which score i am getting.
which one do you recommend?
From what I know the training load is calculated after your excercise so no developers would be able to create this unfortunately
The pictures I've seen of the 245 map display don't seem to show your current speed or pace. Is it possible to add that data field to the map?
You'd just have to press down for another screen to see run metrics.
I'm used to Wahoo devices, where you can edit everything from the phone app. Do I understand correctly that that's not possible on Garmin devices? Can you only edit all this on the watch itself?! That's bonkers!
Hi, hate to admit it but the eyes are old. I want to see 5 or so data items. But i want them each on their own full screen display. Display holds for Xsecs and then moves to the next one. e.g. Min/Mi current lap, Min/Mi overall Pace, Dist Current Lap, Dist Overall, Heart Rate.
I had a Garmin Forunner 405 which i had setup to do this many years ago. Pretty sure I had some displays with just 2 data items, again cycle thru them. Now i have the 945, its a beast, seems like it could do the above. How? thx
Thanks Rambo
Cheers Ben 💪🏃🤣
@@shanebow lol 😂 great look brother
Hello finally got my watch I managed to add the all in one app but when I try adding the Peter one the custom option is missing. Thanks again.
Following
The same.
Great review. I’ve just bought my FR245. Any advice on installing and using routes from Strava?
No sorry. If you find anything online that's helpful please send me a link
Shanebow - Running & Tech Will do.
Shanebow - Running & Tech A bit of a faff but here’s a guide on using routes on the FR245:- ua-cam.com/video/lxKQvj0RHno/v-deo.html
