Suunto Vertical: Bug Collection

[Iggge]

@cosme-costa With the Polar H10 the belt disconnects to often, and show constant 80 BPM sometimes.

I can’t know for sure, but have compered with charge 2, Samsung Galaxy Watch and garmin 245 Music. All three have almost the same data, but the Suunto does not.

[cosme.costa]

@Iggge But have you tried the Polar H10 with the Garmin or any other compatible device? Could be that you have run out of battery in the belt, I have had this several times with the H10.

SV is bigger, thicker and probably heavier that the other 3 devices that you have used, this gives an advantage related to OHR accuracy. Have you tried to wear it two fingers higher in the arm, tighter or switch it to the other arm?

[mlakis]

Many here, me included, are using H10 without problems, so check your batteries on the H10 sensor.

[Iggge]

@cosme-costa I did use H10 without any problem. The problems started after November update.

I have changed battery two times, and I have been using it with my other watches and it worked just fine.

[Iggge]

This is after the update back in November with Polar H10.

[Iggge]

@mlakis Thank for the tip. But I have changed battery two times already with same results.

Maybe Suunto chest strap is working?

[GiPFELKiND]

@wmichi had the same since 4 weeks…

[Iggge]

It’s something really wrong about the heart rate sensor…this is from a 16 km long, and pretty hard bicycle ride to and again home from work.

Is there any update coming soon? It’s so far off from reality.

[cosme.costa]

@Iggge Is this from the OHR or from the Polar H10? If this comes from the H10 and the batteries are new then the issue probably comes from the strap, less probable but possible static from your clothes or faulty sensor, I do not think it comes from the watch because it only reads what the sensor sends and it is working well for other people.
If it comes from the OHR, bike and watch OR are not very friends, hands on handlebar tend to move the watch. A part from this, for some people, WHR doesn’t work well.

[cosme.costa]

@Iggge change/clean the strap, if you use it regularly (3/5 times a week) in one year could be worn.

[Iggge]

@cosme-costa I just changed to a new one. Same results with the new as the old one.

Edit: I see now that you was referring to my H10 strap, and that was not used this time.

[Iggge]

@Iggge

[Iggge]

@cosme-costa Oh! It’s from OHR and not the H10 worked fine last year so it’s strange it so far off now.

This is from last year

[darxmurf]

I reported the HR sensor issue to Suunto support and I have to say, they are not really efficient they proposed to send the watch to tech support while the issue is from their last update.

[drunners]

Hello to everyone, bicycle mod, no hr, with bike pode, just show 300 kcal used on 100km ride with 1500d+

[Audaxjoe]

@drunners in my experience without HR calories aren’t really calculated.

[drunners]

@Audaxjoe thanks, that’s ok but it’s better to show a 0 value instead a so wrong number

[plopes73]

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos @isazi I’ve noticed now that Vertical deactivates vibration below 20%. No vibration for alarms or auto-laps in running. My main concern are the alarms though…20% is almost one full week.
I’m on latest FW 2.33.14 Vertical Solar

Do you know if this will change in the future? Is there any workaround or setting to avoid this automatic vibration deactivation?

Cheers
Pedro

[jjpaz]

@plopes73 I’ve noticed that vibrations are shorter and lighter (auto laps) but nor really deactivated, did you notice that?

[cosme.costa]

@plopes73 I also noticed this, I guess is a “battery saving” feature, but as you said with 20% you still have battery for several days, I would like this activated under 10% or something similar.
