No…in suunto 7 you can’t calibrate altimeter…
That’s the problem -
@isazi
I read manual…in watch there isn’t way to calibrate.
I have also a garmin fenix 5 and there i can.
On suunto 9 i imagine it is possible also -
@giulio roger that, let’s wait for some of the S7 gurus to help you
-

@giulio the s7 autocalibrates the altimeter.
If you compare altitude with some other source please check the mean sea level altitude
-
@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos
How to check the main sea level?
I know my altitude on sea level but i cant put in watch or cant put barometric level reference… -
@giulio ok why do you need those ? For time mode or for during an activity ?
-
@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos
Thanks!
For during an activity…
For daily time would be the must if suunto make an altimeter app or tile…with option to calibrate,i think -
@giulio There is something for that on the playstore thought. Check tips and tricks for S7
During an activity it is autocorrected all the time, if not indoors of course.
If indoors it would still register the /asc/desc but no altitude reference

@Brad_Olwin The Suunto 7 OHR is brilliant, almost as good as a chest strap. Brilliant just to have the convenience of getting ready without worrying about the strap. Has worked perfectly for me when rowing, running and cycling. Comparing with my S9 and H9 polar strap.

@J-Crosby I have completely different feelings. To record recreational activities, yes. Unfortunately, with dynamic exercises, MTB riding, intervals, the bar is the only solution.

Agreed and I think Suunto is aware of this issue. Hopefully we can get a solution of some sort.

@Brad_Olwin What is “bar” as in “bar is the only solution”
It’s strange how experience with OHR varies so my per person and per activity. Must be all the variables of strap positioning, tightness, skin color, hair, blood circulation in arms etc.
Of all the OHR I’ve tried incl AW S5, Garmin Fenix 6X, Polar, the Suunto 7 is by far the best implementation, on a par with Polars arm band OHR. Has worked fine with dynamic exercise including HIIT, free weights and tabata hill running intervals.

@J-Crosby "bar” - heart rate belts

S7 and S9 Yesterday trip on the road. Speed, heart rate, GPS track can be written that almost the same, altitude is not good. Battery consumption around 8-10% per hour.
It starts looking pretty good. I must point out that the hand on the road makes almost no moves. The watch is quite tightly clamped on the wrist which gives slight discomfort.

I have good results too for road cycling and mountain biking with the S7.
But for walking and kayaking I have very bad experiences. If the arm is moving up and down and to both sides the S7 has a problem with the GPS track and while kayaking with the heart rate too.
This should be fixed. With my Stratos 3 there are no problems at all and the data are awesome.
-
@pilleus My experience with kayaking is that the GPS is excellent. My wrist HR is plausible, but I admit that I tested against the Polar H10 ECG chest strap only when cycling. The problem with kayaking: I have to put my Suunto 7 under my drysuit and start exercise tracking before closing my drysuit. This gives some weird GPS signal while I am in my club’s boat house.

Today a test with the S7 and Ghostracer during a walk. It seems that the GPS track is smoother compared to the recording with the Suunto S7 app. No wobbling on the track and the ascent is precise too.

@pilleus
What was battery consumption using gostracer per hour?
