@sky-runner I think you’re slightly overestimating the capabilities of a watch’s altimeter. No device can accurately measure altitude. Barometric altimeters are the best at this, but even they aren’t foolproof. Sometimes all it takes is a slight gust of wind, a more exposed section of the route (a mountain summit or ridge, a wide crossroads in the city) for slight pressure changes to be interpreted as changes in altitude. Especially now that the altimeter in Suunto watches has become more sensitive.

@Steven-Hambleton oh yes

@Mff73 I just tested it with a new battery, no improvement on the Race S side. I tried connecting the heart rate monitor to the “Elite HRV” Android app, same result : the frequency is detected for a few seconds and then the app loses the signal with the heart rate monitor.

ah okay, thanks for the replies. That is unfortunate. It happened twice already that I didn’t manually switch to the other device (i switch between the two every day so they can properly dry before I use them again) and I only got pulse based heart rate without zonesense for the activity.

@Sergei-Ladeishchikov Thanks for your comments. In the meantime I sent the watch to the Suunto Service Center, as it was still under warranty. Three days later I got the replacement - that was fast and a great service!

The turn-by-turn guidance is not a standard in GPX files and Suunto uses a specific way of storing “turn-by-turn guidance waypoints” into the file. Other route planners may use a different way to store them. Thus it’s working between Routeplanner and Suunto app as they are using same way to mark them, but third party GPX files use different syntax or none. Recreating tbt into a GPX file that does not have it is not trivial as it requires rerouting the complete route. It can be done, but getting good quality tbt is really challenging.

@Nandodiver And a way to import the dives into the old DM5 software… like EON.

@dimachad Tried a new Suunto Run and this actually works, thanks!

@EzioAuditore yes the sync direction could be a reason and also using multiple watches. I have reported something about this topic already

Morning report appears reliably, but I can’t find the setting to disable it.;o) Btw I am getting error 503 quite often. The same here. Cheers

@Ger43 I have a Race 1 (and Race 2)… the Race 1 has been great, with none of the distance loss / trimming of the Race 2. Lots of comparisons of features online, but from my practical experience, what I’m most concerned about is accurate ascent/descent, and accurate distance. The Race 1 is great in these regards.

@Loïc-Gangloff same here ! 10 days without bt connections and no wake off the backlight when i move m’y hand.
