@piotr-grygiel
did you try a soft reset on the watch already?

[Brad_Olwin]

@piotr-grygiel What are the HR zone settings on your watch and what are the max and min HR?

[freeheeler]

@brad_olwin
I’m wondering if the weight has shifted for some reason. If settings are maybe on ultra light, the consumed energy could be that low… but this wouldn’t explain the empty bar graphic

[Piotr Grygiel]

@freeheeler Yes. I am going to do hard reset.
It is not easy without a backup of your training settings.

[freeheeler]

@piotr-grygiel
I know, setting up sport modes can be a pain…
before you do a hard reset, could you please try a soft reset and check your settings?
my wife recently had problems getting HR values with her S7, but a restart of the watch solved it.

[Piotr Grygiel]

@freeheeler I did this. No effect…

[Brad_Olwin]

@piotr-grygiel Can you answer my questions about how you have HR zones set in the watch? I don’t want you to hard reset until you have to. Do you have specialized zones set up for running and cycling? Do you have zones set up for general? All of this is in the watch not the app.

[Piotr Grygiel]

@brad_olwin HR zones: 170-148-139-131-122
Hard reset done. On Monday I’m going for a swim and see if the reset has helped.

[freeheeler]

@piotr-grygiel
you can also do a dummy activity and already check now if reset helps

[Piotr Grygiel]

@freeheeler After a hard reset.
I think it’s a clock error. (Belt transmits data after swimming.)

@piotr-grygiel do you get the zones in the watch logbook? What about calories?

[Piotr Grygiel]

@isazi Not. There are only time, temperature and calories on the watch.

[Piotr Grygiel]

@piotr-grygiel There is a bug in the watch. Without the belt (with wrist measurement) everything is fine.

[freeheeler]

@piotr-grygiel
I’m using a verity sense optical sensor with my S9B and did a short swim on the weekend. 172 Kcal for 15min swim… that’s reasonable in my weight class
Do you maybe have the chance to test another HR device when swimming?
I assume you have correct calorie consumption when doing other activities with your belt?

[Bulkan]

Yes I think there is a bug with this.

Swimming and hr strap the calories are low. If the jellyfish let me swim this weekend I will check it again to be sure.

[freeheeler]

there seems to be an issue when using HR belt in the water. But I’ve only tried once so far.
@Piotr-Grygiel if OHR from the watch works for you, I would recommend using it over the more cumbersome HR belt
unless there’s a specific reason why you choose to use the belt?
