Description

This watchface is intended for diagnosing problems with always on display and always on seconds modes. The cumulative number of display updates in low power mode, high power mode, and always on seconds modes is displayed. The flicker test mode allows for checking possible display flickering due to display brightness or AOD pixel reduction mask. The % of on pixels (should usually be 10% or less) and brightness can be set. If you are seeing flicker during AOD display mode, note the LO: # count before entering AOD, and then exiting AOD. The value should only increase by 1 or 2. For example if the display flickers 10 times, and the LO count increased only by 1 or 2 then it indicates a Garmin software or hardware problem. If the LO count increased by 10 or so, then this indicates a Garmin software problem.
