Data loss when no power meter.

I am the owner of a Tactix Delta watch, which is amazing, however l wanted to see my data in front of me and not on my wrist when riding. I bought the edge 539 which is amaze but l was upset to see it would not give me a training load without a power meter, l don’t understand this as my watch will give me this data without a power meter being connected. The are a few options on the edge that requires a power meter and HRM to get data but l can get the same data from my watch with only a HRM. So l now use my watch and edge 530 when riding but only upload the watch data. So my edge 530 is only used to read data on my ride, until l can get a power. The edge 530 is amazing but l can’t understand why my watch can generate select data without a power meter but the 530 does not have the option to do this.
While it apparently has some great features, the requirement to download an app to use to program the device is cumbersome. It also could be more intuitive rather than having to navigate through multiple screens using an array of buttons. Hopefully with time it will get easier…

Lo compre hace 20 dias, tenia un ciclocomputador de otra marca y gama mas baja, y el cambio es del cielo a la tierra! Muchos datos que analizar, excelente compañero de ruta!
As an older cyclist, I did not want to spend so much for the latest models. The 530 has met my needs to av "T". Heart monitor, speed, cadence...all with such relative ease. Two of my biking buddies have also now purchased the 530.
