HR mode does not adjust power

I did a quick start workout for about one hour. The first half hour I set the HR target to 115BPM, but it didn’t seem to get adjusted, as it stayed at about 120BPM.
The last half hour, I set it to 110BPM, but the power did not decrease and the avg BPM continued in the 120BPM range.
Am I missing some setting to ensure the power adjusts to get to the target BPM?

Can you set a screenshot while training? I just realized if your threshold HR is not set correctly or you have too big of disconnect between HR and power it might not go low enough. Or what is your threshold HR, FTP and max HR.

Threshold HR set to 160
FTP 247
Max HR 180

Hmm, that’s interesting. It clearly shows the problem but I am not exactly sure what it is. Because it is off by only 10% we might make too small of adjustments or some rounding applied to power that might not allow it to drop. It should but I will review the code and see if I can find the problem. I don’t do much programming here but I wrote this logic :slight_smile: Thanks so much. If you can start out at 105bpm and keep going to 1 hour or something and let me know that might help me understand.

One interesting thing is this small spike in HR that starts at about 45 minutes even though average power target has gone down over all.

Thank you for the quick reply. I will try agian with your instructions it and update here if the issue persists.

Hi
it seems the app is acting up once again in the HR mode.
DId a quick start session setting up the target to 116bpm, but instead it seems to have locked at 200w or so. I paused after a couple of minutes to see if it would fix it, but then again continued constant 200w.
I stopped after 10 minutes, closed and restarted the app, then it worked well. Attaching a couple of screenshots for reference.


That’s strange. One new user sounded like he had an issue like this. I have limiters in this code based on FTP and threshold heart rate. Those limiters were to protect people from power targets going out of bounds but it makes a lot less sense than I originally believed. Possibly removing these limiters would help as generally it should never get stuck. Please let me know if it happens again.
