Suunto Software update Q1 (2.53.42)
-
@maszop as the GNSS positioning usally has a higher accuracy as 5m or so, it makes sense to be on the route to use the route features.
In some places, being 20m next to the route would mean being dead… -
Amazing update! Thanks Suunto.
I tried the Broadcast HR this morning, and it worked great! However, it looks like I need to re-enable it every time I start an activity. For some reason the setting does not persist unlike other settings in Exercise Options.
Is this a bug, or am working as intended? Or I am just missing something.

In some places, being 20m next to the route would mean being dead…I’m talking about places where there’s no trail, or where following the trail isn’t desirable for various reasons. When I’m in unfamiliar terrain, I create this type of basic route based on the map.

So according to Suunto’s new logic, am I expected to stick to this route religiously?
That’s absurd. -
@maszop Sure, if following a route in an “off trail” terrain, it would be useful to have an option to disable off route alerts. Although I don’t know how to still maintain climb guidance in that scenario, if at all possible.

That’s how it’s worked so far. The route goes uphill, and depending on local conditions, the actual path will be within a few dozen meters of the planned ‘theoretical’ route. The statistics shouldn’t differ by more than the watch’s accuracy.

Thanks, please keep me updated. My Suunto Race 2 is currently in the drawer and will stay there until the resources issues have been fixed.

Custom fields option on maps and guidance
Is one of the options distance to next turn? Because in custom sport profile builder in Suunto App I see only distance to end/ distance to next waypoint.
I have no way to test it with my Vertical 1 but if there’s distance to next turn, I’d be tempted to upgrade

@Jan-Krejčí Yes! Here’s a screenshot from Joaquin’s video

@Jan-Krejčí yes

Thanks


My wallet is going to hate me

@Jan-Krejčí maybe it worth waiting a bit for SV1 update and see we also get it

For @miroslava :

-
@isazi I’ve just tried with Notes app and yes.

@Thibault-B. If you write a proper report of the issue, with pictures and logs, I’ll forward it

Loving the new update, a lot of useful improvements so well done Suunto!


Previously the Race 2 slightly under recorded distances, but I’ve just done a run with the new firmware and it seems a lot better, matching my other GPS watch (for the first time ever). Can anyone confirm that this was one of the bug fixes/ improvements for the Race 2?

@HonzaS ďakujem

Thanks for your effort, Suunto team! Keep pushing

I was really looking forward two things: HR on the map display and the fix of the BT disconnection. I am half happy as I got only the first one! Please keep up with the good work and add this in the pipeline!

The zoom-in feature is super helpful but, from what I saw, the zoom level label does not change accordingly. Did I misinterpreted the feature?

I don’t know how you interpreted it in the first place, so can’t say, but looking at Janne Kallio’s video, the zoom “label” at 9 o’clock changes from 1 km to 50 m and back.
