Is the Garmin HRM 600 compatible with Garmin Edge cycling computers?

Yes. The HRM 600 is fully compatible with Garmin Edge cycling computers including the Edge 550, Edge 850, and Edge 1050. It transmits heart rate data via ANT+ for display on your head unit during rides. It also supports cycling dynamics metrics on compatible devices.

Does the Garmin HRM 600 work with third-party apps and devices?

Yes. The HRM 600 transmits via both ANT+ and Bluetooth, making it compatible with a wide range of third-party cycling apps and devices including Zwift, TrainerRoad, Wahoo devices, and most ANT+ or Bluetooth-enabled cycling computers and smartphones.

What running dynamics does the Garmin HRM 600 provide?

When paired with a compatible Garmin device, the HRM 600 provides advanced running dynamics including: cadence, ground contact time, ground contact time balance, stride length, vertical oscillation, and vertical ratio. These metrics help runners optimise their form and efficiency.

Does the Garmin HRM 600 store data internally?

Yes. The HRM 600 can store up to 20 hours of heart rate data internally. This is useful for activities where your head unit or watch is not worn, such as swimming. Data syncs automatically to your Garmin device when in range.

What battery does the Garmin HRM 600 use and how long does it last?

The HRM 600 uses a standard CR2032 coin cell battery with a rated life of up to 12 months under typical use. The battery is user-replaceable — no tools required.

Is the Garmin HRM 600 waterproof?

Yes. The HRM 600 is water-resistant and suitable for use in rain and sweat-heavy conditions. The pod is removable from the strap for washing. The strap itself is machine washable.

How do I pair the Garmin HRM 600 to my Garmin Edge?

  1. Moisten the electrode pads on the back of the strap and put it on.
  2. On your Garmin Edge, go to Settings > Sensors > Add Sensor.
  3. Select Heart Rate from the sensor type list.
  4. The Edge will scan and detect the HRM 600 — select it to pair.
  5. Heart rate will now display on your Edge during rides.

What is the difference between the Garmin HRM 600 and HRM 200?

The HRM 600 is Garmin’s premium heart rate monitor with advanced running dynamics, internal data storage, and longer battery life. The HRM 200 is a more affordable entry-level option that provides accurate heart rate data via ANT+ and Bluetooth without the advanced dynamics metrics. The HRM 600 is recommended for athletes who want detailed performance data; the HRM 200 is ideal for cyclists and fitness users who need reliable heart rate without the extra features.

Is there a more economical heart rate monitor alternative?

Yes. Bikers.SG also carries the Garmin HRM 200 as a more affordable option, as well as the Polar H10 and Magene H613 heart rate monitors. All are ANT+ and Bluetooth compatible and work with Garmin Edge cycling computers.
