I recently bought NPE Runn sensor for my threadmill (https://npe-inc.com/runn-smart-treadmill-sensor/) and tried to connect it to my watch to collect data from the treadmill. But my suunto 9 does not even find the sensor. The support for these kinds of sensors would be nice. I do not want to use always zwift to get the data.
-
Do you want support in the App or S9? Because the section you posted is for app support.
-
To the S9 itself. I could not find the place for the S9 feature suggestions. If someone knows where it is in this forum and can move this there, can do so.
-
@Anssi-Auvinen Right now we don’t have a subforum for watches, just the “lets talk about watches” forum, but maybe that will change soon as the name of our forum changed as well…
-
if it’s BT pod sensor it should be detected
-
But it does not, but is seen on the zwift app. It’s bluetooth, but not foot pod. It is attached to treadmill and provides speed, incline and cadence.
-
@Anssi-Auvinen can you use wahoo utilities app and see from there what profiles (data) the app recognizes (its a great app btw)
-
I think Wahoo Utility is only for android and i’m iOS user. But i could connect it to Wahoo fitness app.
-
@Anssi-Auvinen Looks good.
What does the S9 do when you try to pair it with a pod?
Like connectivity -> pair sensor -> foot pod -> While its searching start the device
-
S9 says instructions “activate…”, “move closer”, “check battery” and finally pairing failed. Next to it I had phone with Wahoo and it found it.
-
@Anssi-Auvinen Ok please do this. BT devices can only be paired to one device. I am suspecting that some other device has locked to the sensor (BT device).
- Put airplane mode to all devices except the watch.
- Reboot / power off/ on the sensor
- Reboot the watch 12s upper button
- Turn airplane mode on the watch on and then off (like 5 seconds difference).
- Got to pair the pod
- While the instructions are there try to give a spin to the threadmill (so that the sensor can broadcast some data and the watch can pick it up)
-
@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos OK, will try that later today. But I yesterday tried to connect it to the watch first before any other device.
-
@Anssi-Auvinen I get it. I am trying to help figure out what is going on.
I can ask the team for more info if needed. Its a new sensor but in theory it should be supported. There is no reason it shouldn’t
Those BT profiles (used by apps) are pretty much the standart
-
“In addition, it’ll soon broadcast itself as a standard running footpod, but as of this writing it’s not yet in the firmware. Once done that’ll show up on both ANT+ & Bluetooth Smart, allowing you to pair it to virtually any Garmin/Suunto/Polar/COROS etc running or multisport watch. For now though, none of those watches support FE-C or FTMS, so you wouldn’t be able to use it with them directly yet.”
So this is why it does not pair yet.

@Anssi-Auvinen hey thanks a lot about this!
