deactivate ERG mode - I use an Edge 520 and TP

need to see if you can help me deactivate ERG mode - I use an Edge 520 and TP IQ to download my workouts (power based from my coach).
For some of these the power output is a guideline - and cadence is more important. But due to the 'smart' trainer the resistance goes all over the place.
Outside of TP workouts I can turn off ERG on the Garmin 520, but all turbos are driven by TP workouts.

Once you are performing the workout you are back in Garmin’s workout interface, so all the same workout settings are available.The Edge 520 uses the ANT+ FE-C protocol to control smart trainers. You should be able to unpair that sensor to prevent the 520 from controlling the resistance of the trainer. you will need to reference the User Guide for 520 for specifics.

    did this ever get resolved? I too am having these issues with ERG mode for workouts. Using my garmin 520 and tacx neo.

    Will this still show and record power during the workout? Also, will the setting be remembered, or doe sit have to be done for each workout?

    thanks, Alex
