Using Electronic Shifters

Before you can use compatible electronic shifters, such as 

Shimano

®

 Di2

™

 shifters, you must pair them with your device 

(

Pairing Your ANT+ Sensors

, page 12

). You can customize the 

optional data fields (

Customizing the Data Screens

, page 16

). 

The Edge device displays current adjustment values when the 

sensor is in adjustment mode.

Situational Awareness

Your Edge device can be used with the Varia Vision

™

 device, 

Varia

™

 smart bike lights, and rearview radar to improve 

situational awareness. See the owner's manual for your Varia 

device for more information.

NOTE: 

You may need to update the Edge software before 

pairing Varia devices (

Updating the Software

, page 20

).

Using a Weight Scale

If you have an ANT+ compatible weight scale, the device can 

read the data from the weight scale.

1

Select 

 > 

Sensors

 > 

Add Sensor

 > 

Weight Scale

.

A message appears when the weight scale is found.

If using a body composition scale, remove shoes and 

socks to ensure that all body composition parameters are 

read and recorded.

TIP: 

If an error occurs, step off the scale. Step on when 

indicated.

Garmin Index

™

 Smart Scale Data

If you have a Garmin Index device, the most recent scale data is 

stored in your Garmin Connect account. The next time you 

connect the Edge device to your Garmin Connect account, the 

weight data is updated in your Edge user profile.

History

History includes time, distance, calories, speed, lap data, 

elevation, and optional ANT+ sensor information.

NOTE: 

History is not recorded while the timer is stopped or 

paused.
When the device memory is full, a message appears. The 

device does not automatically delete or overwrite your history. 

Upload your history to Garmin Connect periodically to keep track 

of all your ride data.
