FusedTrack works great - for 16 Minutes or 2,5km

[VoiGAS]

Hi,
I have a Problem with FusedTrack. I am using my Peak 9 since nearly a year and it works great most of the day. Yesterday I tried FusedTrack the first time and it really worked great for the first 16 Minutes of the run. Then it just stopped, easy to see in the recordings because then it jumps from one GPS position to the next directly. Tried another run today on a different route, with the same behaviour
On both runs I calibrated the compass before and waited for the GPS Signal. My firmware ist the latest

Any ideas? I really like to use FusedTrack because it works really great

@VoiGAS in the first 15 minutes the watch uses the performance mode, and moves to endurance/ultra/tour only after 15 minutes.

[VoiGAS]

@isazi Thank you, thats why it works that good in the beginning. But this would mean that FusedTrack doesn’t work at all. Just GPS jumps from one point to the next
I forgot to mention that I used the Custom Battery Mode with GPS Mode good. So maybe this doesn’t trigger FusedTrack? I don’t want to use Endurance or Ultra because it disables Wrist HR

Edit: I have to correct myself, Wrist HR should work with Endurance. I will try it on the next run

@VoiGAS
Isn’t fused track only available for S9? Not for S9P or S9PP.

[VoiGAS]

@Mff73 As far as I know it all the Suuntos since 9 have it - at least I hope so

[Łukasz Szmigiel]

@Mff73 1s fix for Endurance is available since 9PP. 9P should have FusedTrack as the original S9.

@VoiGAS
@Łukasz-Szmigiel
OK, my bad.

[VoiGAS]

@isazi Tried again in Endurance Mode, same behaviour: Only straight lines, no FusedTrack effect. I compared it to online reviews, there it is not perfect - but its doing something.
Could it be a defect? Compass works, at least in standalone mode

[Łukasz Szmigiel]

@VoiGAS did you register a normal run with Performance mode before? So that the watch got calibrated for your moves?

[VoiGAS]

@Łukasz-Szmigiel Yes, a lot. Really strange

[isazi]

@VoiGAS and this is running right, not cycling?

[VoiGAS]

@isazi Yes, and I just counted the “jumps” in the track - it is just one position marker per minute, nothing in between
I read the watch should request a compass calibration when Endurance mode is chosen. I never had a message like this

[isazi]

@VoiGAS did you already try to reboot your watch?

[VoiGAS]

@isazi No, I will try that

[Łukasz Szmigiel]

As far as I’m aware - this should always work for running activities in Endurance and Ultra if the watch has calibrated wrist movement to GPS, which typically takes one 15+ minutes run in Performance mode.

@isazi, will such data get refreshed with only a soft-reset?

[isazi]

@Łukasz-Szmigiel I would say that a reboot is the first step, then maybe a factory reset could be necessary. Hopefully not.

[VoiGAS]

@isazi ok, so Soft Reset + AGPS Sync (then wait 15 Minutes) + 15 Minutes Performance Run to calibrate + Compass Calibration + Endurance Run is the way to go . This will be one of my most intense training weeks

[Łukasz Szmigiel]

@VoiGAS remember to sync the watch after soft reset and then wait 15 minutes in order for the watch to unpack the AGPS data.

Soft Reset & Performance Run done, next Test on friday for FusedTrack. Funfact: Ray tested FusedTrack in a 10 Minute Run. Guess what - it worked great

@VoiGAS honestly not sure if the watch was doing 15 minutes of performance when in endurance mode at that time (2018, the time S9/S9B were introduced). As you can see from the track, the watch was not in performance mode.
