Last week I sent my s9 baro back in Finland to fix the barometer that registered pressure between 8 to 11 hPa higher than weather station around me at the same height above sea level.
Still waiting for an official response by Suunto assistance but I think some sensors are just defective. -
@zzmike76 nope. Suunto watches show sea level since they do know the altitude. You can add that to raspi I can help you convert it if you like
I would check the local weather station for his sea level pressure
-
@General_Witt I pressume you checked the weather station sea level pressure not pressure. Weather stations might and will report both
-
@zzmike76
You should be able to see the difference if you manually set reference altitude -
@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos
Of course. 3 different government ones. In one case I hiked till I was literally 1 meter away from the sensors. Still 8-9 hPa difference. -
@General_Witt very strange. WTF. Did you get the new unit back ?
-
@General_Witt
Was the altitude correct? -
@General_Witt @sartoric the altitude is correct in the watch (372 meters), but pressure always differs by at least 20/30 hPa, i guess the sensor has some issues
-
Hey @zzmike76 may I know the location and the pressure raspi and S9 reports. I can check online for you
-
@zzmike76 30hpa is a completly defective device. I do insist that one is looking at a different value.
-
@zzmike76 on the ambit3 you can go into a service menu, to show the absolut pressure. (Maybe you can check that too on the S9)
When I got the watch, it was absolut perfect calibrated. When I first time did a hike, with Baro Mode altitude, the sea level pressure difference was exactly the difference of the weather change in this time of the hike. But the absolut pressure is spot on. -

@General_Witt very strange. WTF. Did you get the new unit back ?
I’m still in “received” status. They got the watch wednesday, I’m waiting for some response these days.
Anyway I tried both manual and auto altitude calibration with no avail. -
@General_Witt asking for you the CC

the pressure raspi and S9 reports. I can check online for you
location is Würenlingen (Switzerland), raspi reports 975 hPa while watch 1019

I’m sorry Dimitrios, I don’t know what CC is.
-
@zzmike76 975 is too low for sea level pressure
-
@General_Witt please pm me your email address to check the status of your case
-
So for your place here is the current day value and prediction of SEALEVEL pressure not absolute pressure.
-
Which validates what I am talking about
-
@zzmike76 here you can see ambient pressure (stations niveau) and sea level pressure. https://www.bergfex.ch/aargau/wetter/stationen/wuerenlingen--psi/
