[Closed] Garmin Speed/Cadence calibration question

Just got a Garmin speed/cadence sensor which is all fitted and appears to work fine. (Thanks DC2.0!)

Just not sure on the calibration of the speed? I know it counts wheel rotation, but surely it also needs to know wheel circumference? Is there anywhere to enter this to calibrate? Does it auto calibrate using GPS? Or is there some sort of magic involved?

Its connected to an Edge 25 if that makes any difference?

Cheers!

I think it knows how far you travel by revolution by the GPS so works it out from that

^^ as said, go for a ride and it should calibrate using the Edge GPS data
