Displays current or average power in a against a sliding scale and colored background defined by your power zones. The current power zone is displayed next to the power value.

The data field supports the following settings through Garmin Express or the Garmin Mobile App:

* Text Color (Black/White)
* Size of the display scale (40/60/80/100 watts).   I.e. how many watts does the field width represent, to stretch the scale select a lower number.  
* Power Averaging Period (1 sec / 3 sec / 10 sec / 30 sec)
* Suppress the display of the zone number.
* Display power as FTP percentage instead of watts.
* The Functional Threshold Power (FTP) for the user.
* Percentages of FTP for the user's power zones (z1-z7)

This field can be combined with other data fields on multi-field training pages.    For use on a watch (round display), note that this works best if placed in the upper half or as a middle field on the watch.

Also note that you need to set your FTP and zones in the settings for the app as the app can not access the FTP/zone data that you may have set on your device. This is currently a limitation in the Garmin Connect IQ framework.

An ANT+ power meter must be paired with the device to provide the power data.
