Do you have track recording turned on?

Yes, Track recording is on and I use my recording profile "Walk". I even use The audio Coach that tells me my current speed, pace etc

But I have no sensor for the heartrate!? Could that be the problem?

Btw, is the only way to see the energy value to create a dashboard?

Good day Hans,

suggest to check computed energy in "track > statistics" tab. In case, track has recorded speed or heart rate and selected activity, do you see an "energy" value here?


During recording there may be a problem, that recording profile does not have correctly set activity. This may happen for some old profiles created with any of older Locus Map versions. To be sure, please try to "add new profile", where you will have to select activity and then use this profile for recording. Thanks

Thanks Menion (again)

I created a new profile and everything works fine!!

You see Locus was one of my very first app I bought, I think it was ver1.3 or something. Soooo my profile was for sure to old ;)

@menion - I had same issue as Hans - my track recording profiles "common" & "continual" didn't have an associated activity. But it appears the activity can only be set when the profile is created?

Yes this is correct. I was forced to remove option to set "activity type" by @Petr and @Michal in "name of simplification" :).

Sometimes over simplification ==> confusion. It could be dropdown list box instead of static text. Does the chosen activity affect anything else? I don't think so; I'll leave the profiles there for now.

haha, Menion was forced :D. We all know very well that if he didn't like the idea, he wouldn't have implemented it.

Haha, this is not true for a long time. I well remember I was again removing this option as well as option to select activity when saving recorded track. Anyway two votes vs one vote always wins ;).

EDIT: and I always say that it's on you to defend this change before users. And here we are ...
