Suunto 9 raise to wake feature

Egika

@miš-kan read above - Standby light needs to be on to make it work in watch mode.
A bit lacking logic imo.

@egika if you rely only on logic, clear and precise instructions for use are completely unnecessary.

I hope the above helps a bit

@dimitrios-kanellopoulos Thank you very much. That is aswer, that my logic can process.

@dimitrios-kanellopoulos so what’s the difference between
standby off raise to wake on
and
standby off raise to wake during an exercise?

isazi

@дима-мельниченко that during exercise you have raise to wake backlight.

DMytro

@isazi If one refers to the picture, both scenarios have exact same description - almost word for word.

isazi

@дима-мельниченко you’re right.

DMytro

@isazi is this intended?

isazi

@дима-мельниченко probably.

@дима-мельниченко If you do not want raise to wake on all the time but only when you exercise, this is the setting. I imagine this might preserve daily battery life better than leaving it turned on all the time.

DMytro

@brad_olwin what I’m saying is according to the picture @Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos provided there are two combinations leading to the same result. I’ve checked and it is indeed so.

Dimitrios Kanellopoulos

@дима-мельниченко ideally the raise to wake should be disabled if the backlight is not set to on.

There are with the backlight off 2 raise to wake options , that yes have the same effect. None.

However once the backlight is set to something else those are 2 different options.

DMytro

@dimitrios-kanellopoulos that disagrees with my experience.
If standby is off and raise to wake is either on or exercise only, raise to wake is present only during an exercise.
My setup:
S9 non-baro, circuit training
However I don’t think that my results are limited to either one of the above.

@дима-мельниченко s

According to the above picture when standby light is off raise to wake does nothing. Right ?

If it works for you (I just tested and doesn’t for me) then it’s out of the specs so a bug right ?

I should think so.

Probably, yes

OK, so two questions:

I do not have standby options fixed/adaptive/off, for me it is just simply on/off.
How one does turn off light completely? Now I have standby off and raise to wake off, but light is still triggered by pressing any button. Can I turn it off completely?

DMytro

@kabzior 1. that’s because the picture is for s9p not s9: adaptive means using the sensor
2. I think now you can’t, earlier it was possible with toggle, but now it’s gone

kabzior

@дима-мельниченко thanks, regarding first one - that’s what i tought, but that’s ok.
but the second one is a bummer, I go for long trekkings and often change between nav screen (with track) and ETA screen, but I do not need backlight, now I think battery efficiency will be lower due to the fact I cannot turn light off. I suppose it might be noticeable in 10-12h activity.

DMytro

@kabzior doubt it. I never had my backlight on toggle and still was able to meet the predicted battery life. Granted I rarely train for longer than 3h in a row, but still…
