Title: TreadSense - High contrast circular step progress for Instinct 2X (Standard, Solar, Solar Tactical, Surf) Quick Start (one line): After install: Activity then hold MENU then Activity Settings then Data Screens then edit or add then Connect IQ Fields then select TreadSense. Description: TreadSense is a step progress data field for indoor and treadmill use. It shows a clear ring of daily steps and percent of goal using motion sensors so it works indoors just as well as outdoors. Features: Circular 0 to 100 percent progress ring (stops at 100 when goal exceeded) Large current step count Percent and goal label (goal label hides automatically in compact layouts) Lightweight animation (low battery impact) High contrast design tuned for the Instinct 2X display Supports all Instinct 2X variants (Standard, Solar, Solar Tactical, Surf) Ideal For: •Treadmill running or walking •Indoor track sessions •Elliptical or other indoor cardio Detailed Quick Start: 1. Sync the watch after install (Garmin Connect Mobile or Garmin Express). 2. Open but do not start an activity like Run or Treadmill. 3. Hold MENU then choose Activity Settings then Data Screens. 4. Edit a screen or add a new one then choose a layout. 5. Select a field slot then scroll to the bottom then Connect IQ Fields then choose TreadSense. 6. Start the activity. Troubleshooting: Not listed under Connect IQ Fields: 1. Sync again and wait for completion. 2. In Garmin Connect Mobile open Device then Activities and App Management then Data Fields and confirm TreadSense is installed. 3. Reboot watch (hold LIGHT) then re add. 4. Reinstall sequence: uninstall then sync then reinstall then sync then add to Data Screen. Shows but not updating: 1. Walk a little so steps change. 2. Confirm daily step goal is greater than zero in user profile. 3. Ring full too soon: Ring intentionally caps at 100 percent after goal is reached. Still stuck: Provide model (example: Instinct 2X Solar Tactical), firmware version, and which step failed. Privacy: No data leaves the watch. Reads step count and daily goal only.
